As media evaluation 7 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The document summarizes the progression of the author's magazine project from early drafts to the final product.

The author learned about using different font sizes, styles and colors to draw attention and engage readers. Professional quality images were added. The double page layout was refined with a cleaner design.

Question 3
The document discusses potential parent companies to distribute a new hip-hop magazine called DEZAE. The author identifies Bauer Media Group and International Publishing Company (IPC) as options. IPC is preferred as it has experience in the hip-hop genre, allowing the magazine to succeed, and wide digital distribution for a mass audience appeal rather than a niche market. IPC's lack of a specific demographic also makes it a good fit. Choosing the right parent company with experience in the genre and wide reach is important for promotional success and sales.
Question 1 completed
This document analyzes how the student's media product, a hip hop magazine called Dezae, uses, develops, and challenges conventions of real music magazines. The student researched conventions of magazines like PAPER and Rolling Stone to inform their front cover design. While their cover uses conventions like a prominent masthead and color scheme, it challenges conventions by placing the image in the middle. Their double page spread is organized similarly to Rolling Stone but challenges stereotypes by not revealing the location of the person photographed. Overall, the student developed their own ideas while drawing from conventions of real magazines.
Question 2
The student chose IPC Media as the institution to distribute their hip hop magazine because IPC is one of the largest media companies in the UK with experience in their genre. IPC's wide distribution would allow the magazine to reach a mass audience and potentially find success. While other options like Bauer Media were considered, IPC's lack of focus on a specific demographic matches the target audience of both males and females. The student believes IPC's promotion and experience in their genre could help the magazine succeed as a popular name.
Evaluation question 3
Bauer Media and Time Inc. would be well-suited to distribute the media product due to their experience targeting a young adult audience and extensive distribution networks. As large publishing companies with magazines similar to the proposed product, they could exploit their experience with the target demographic. Their brand recognition and existing audiences could help increase awareness and sales of the new magazine. Time Inc. in particular may provide more publicity opportunities due to its size and ownership by a major media conglomerate.
Evaluation
The document summarizes a student's music magazine project. The student aimed to create a unique style while incorporating some magazine conventions. The front cover has an unusual font and arty image within a conventional layout. The contents page fits conventions but wraps text around an image for uniqueness. The double page spread layout is conventional but with more artistic images. The target audience is students and young adults interested in culture, fashion and alternative music. The magazine represents this group with its style and approachable presentation. A large publishing company like IPC Media would be most likely to distribute the magazine since they already publish similar titles. The student learned new skills using software like Photoshop and InDesign.

This document describes a music magazine called LA magazine that was created to target teenagers aged 16-18. The magazine uses conventions from Q magazine such as the minimalist masthead logo, skyline, pull quotes, and positioning and sizing of main images. Other design elements like the barcode, cover lines, and subheadings were chosen to give the magazine a professional look and highlight interesting content. Photoshop brushes and images were selected to suit the magazine's style and fill space. Feedback from surveys showed that the target audience and genre were identified correctly but that the background design could be improved.

It summarizes how the magazine front cover, contents page, and double page spread use conventions of real magazines, such as including a masthead, strap line, cover lines and images. It also discusses how the magazine represents its target audience of males aged 15-35 through the images and language used.

For TRAP Magazine, the masthead uses red, black and white colors. It will focus on hip hop music and be released monthly due to its higher price. The target audience is ages 16+ of both genders.
Evaluation
My media product is a music magazine aimed at teenagers aged 16-20. It uses bold colors and images to attract its target audience. The magazine would be distributed by Bauer Productions since they specialize in cross-media promotion across magazines, television, and radio, helping to build a brand and attract readers. In creating the magazine, I learned how to effectively design pages to engage readers through placement of images and text.
Evaluation Question 4
Sana Gillani addressed her target audience of rock music fans aged 20-35 by designing magazine pages that follow rock music conventions. She used bold colors like red, black, and yellow that appeal to this audience. Large images of artists make direct eye contact to intrigue readers. Pull quotes tease articles without giving too much away. The layout uses columns and placement of images next to related articles to clearly guide readers through the content. These design choices aim to attract and engage the target audience according to research on rock music magazine formats.

Question 5 evaluation powerpoint
The document discusses how different magazines attract their target audiences through design elements like color schemes, photographs, and fonts. Scratch magazine uses masculine colors, bold text, and a photo of Lil Wayne to attract teenage boys. Blender magazine features Katy Perry on the cover in front of feminine pink text on a white background to target teenage girls. For their own magazine design, the author chooses a sophisticated color scheme of red, black, orange, and white along with stylish fonts to appeal to both male and female teenagers aged 13-18. Photos of an attractive female friend on the cover, contents page, and inside spreads are intended to attract the target female audience.
Evaluation draft answers
This document provides guidance for evaluation presentations in 2015-16. It lists various presentation methods that can be used such as Popplet, Prezi, PowToon, etc. It also includes sample evaluation questions about representing social groups and genres in media products. The document discusses using conventions like layout, images and language to represent a pop/country music genre. It describes targeting an audience of 14-22 year olds interested in pop or country music. Survey results found more female appeal, so feminine fonts and colors were used to make the magazine appeal to both males and females.
Evaluation on front cover, contents page and double page spread
My media product develops conventions used in real magazines, such as a masthead in the top left corner with the magazine's name ('K') in a house style combining red, black, white and blue. The front cover features the artist's name across their body with a customized line underneath, and cover lines on the left side about the artist. The large central image establishes the artist's genre through their expression. The contents page includes a variety of images representing the magazine's content, and text about artists/groups. The double page spread begins with the artist's name in a font conveying their feeling, with an image projecting their confident attitude and genre. Feedback from focus groups showed the products successfully looked professional and met audiences' needs
Question 4 & 5
1. The magazine targeted Christian youth ages 16-25 interested in music and current affairs through stylish modern design elements like fonts, colors, and images they could relate to.
2. Attractions included fashionable subjects wearing popular brands and a casual dressed musician to appeal to both male and female readers.
3. Consistent modern design elements like changing colored bars and varied fonts across pages helped engage the youth audience amid rich textual content.

Lifecycle of a GME Trader: From Newbie to Diamond Hands
Your phone buzzes with a Reddit notification. It's the WallStreetBets forum, a cacophony of memes, rocketship emojis, and fervent discussions about Gamestop (GME) stock. A spark ignites within you - a mix of internet bravado, a rebellious urge to topple the hedge funds (remember Mr. Mayo?), and maybe that one late-night YouTube rabbit hole about tendies. You decide to YOLO (you only live once, right?).
Ramen noodles become your new best friend. Every spare penny gets tossed into the GME piggy bank. You're practically living on fumes, but the dream of a moonshot keeps you going. Your phone becomes an extension of your hand, perpetually glued to the GME ticker. It's a roller-coaster ride - every dip a stomach punch, every rise a shot of adrenaline.
Then, it happens. Roaring Kitty, the forum's resident legend, fires off a cryptic tweet. The apes, as the GME investors call themselves, erupt in a frenzy. Could this be it? Is the rocket finally fueled for another epic launch? You grip your phone tighter, heart pounding in your chest. It's a wild ride, but you're in it for the long haul.

As media evaluation 5
- 1. AS MEDIA EVALUATION Q5: How did you attract/address your audience?
- 2. How did I ATTRACT my audience? Bold mast head to grab the audiences attention Clear colour scheme of red, black, white which are all bright colours. Through the use of shisha smoke, boys would aspire to look up to my model, as they would want to follow the latest trends or find out more about it. Magazines website which the audience may want to access at home or for extra information about the magazine. Price and release date to let the audience know when the content has been released and the price of it. Different size texts to show the importance of each headline Feature of an exclusive unseen poster Main image Bold strap line
- 3. How did you ADDRESS your audience? When planning and creating my product , I made sure my audience would feel addressed to through the images, font types, font size and colour. The use of the vibrant colours red, black and white was one way I tried to attract my magazine to my audience. The reality of using this colour scheme is to make it more appealing and consistent throughout. Although my model did not have direct mode address with my audience, the message that he was implying was a “rebellious teenager”. This is evident from the mise en scene of the shisha smoke that is been blown away. My media product tells the reader that to be successful you need to be confident, happy, and rebellious at times. My front cover is used to aspire all the mainstreamers who are seeking to better themselves and be like my star.
- 4. Gender: My magazine is aimed at both genders despite my cover star being a male. This has been prospered through the use of music artists mentioned as they are both feminine and masculine artists. Age: The target audience for my magazine is teenagers up to young adults (13-18). The reason for this is because the music genre hip-hop is most popular within this age group. The cover star is also 18 therefore my readers can relate to the content as well as the cover star. Genre: The genre of my music magazine is “Hip-Hop” this is portrayed through the mise en scene in the main image of my cover star blowing shisha smoke. This has connotations of ‘hip-hop’ as most artists use smoke in their music videos and even lyrics.
- 5. The word “heart-throb” draws the female readers in because it is referring to someone as charming and handsome which makes the female readers wanting to know more about this ‘heart-throb’. The fact that it is part of the strap line appeals to the audience as this person who is labelled as a heart- throb is a big deal, this is also supported by the bold black font. The red italics of the word “EXCLUSIVE” connotes how special this poster inside this magazine is, it is an item which is published by only one source. This is almost tempting the readers to want to see this ‘EXCLUSIVE’ poster by needing to buy it. The use of the play phrase “& his NEW DIRECTION”, mimicking Zayn’s departure from One Direction lures the readers in as it funny and entertaining.
- 6. The heading is in the centre at the top of the page in black bold font attracting the audience immediately to let them know what the page is about. The white font against a black background makes it stand out and emphasise on the “MAIN FEATURES”. This draws the reader into looking at the contents page as well as through the pages for each feature. The use of images takes the audiences attention off the writing as too much writing might put them off. Also, it gives them an insight of what the magazine includes inside by helping them understand.
- 7. The pull quote which has been taken from the interview is used to grab the audiences attention. It has been chosen as it supports the rhetorical question in the headline which says “and new lover?” The headline which matches the cover stars costume is purposely used to maintain consistency. The italic flirty font at the bottom saying “and new lover?” is used to highlight the potential love that might be there which will be mentioned in the interview. The use of the image lets the reader know who is this celebrity who won the X- Factor.
- 8. The consistency of the house style and the colour scheme of red, black and white has been continued throughout to keep it professional and neat. The colour red is both feminine and masculine which connotes love ,passion, danger. The colour black being associated with power, mystery elegance and white with light, goodness, purity. Although, my double page spread didn’t follow the red, black and white colour scheme, the font matches the costume of my star to continue the neat look of my magazine.
