Audience profile
The target audience for the rock/pop magazine is 15-24 year olds of both genders to attract a broader readership than other music magazines that are majority male. The socio-economic group is A-C1, targeting those interested in bands like The Black Keys and The Rolling Stones. According to Katz's Uses & Gratifications theory, readers will be able to personally identify with cover stars and genres. These exploratory readers aim to learn about classic rock bands and be informed according to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. The stereotypical reader is described as a 15-24 year old male wearing checked shirts and jeans.
Audience profiling
Audience profiles are created through analyzing demographics and psychographics. Demographics examine groups based on job and class, while psychographics analyze lifestyle and personality categories. The target audience for rock music magazines includes working class socio-economic groups C1 to D. Magazines like Kerrang appeal to this audience as their content is simplistic, informal and accessible. Classic Rock targets a lower middle class through slightly more formal high-brow content. The audiences interested in Kerrang are mainly mainstreamers and aspirers, while those interested in Classic Rock are resigned and explorers, with the differences largely dependent on the magazines' styles and how they attract their intended readership.
Biographical dress up
This document provides instructions for a biographical dress up and monologue project. Students will:
1. Research and take notes on a famous historical figure.
2. Write a 2-minute first-person script about interesting facts about that person and memorize it.
3. Create a costume and prop representing the person.
4. Give a performance wearing the costume and using gestures to bring the historical figure to life.
The document also includes guidelines for a 5-paragraph written biography report on the chosen figure, including background information, what made them famous, their impact, and a conclusion. A bibliography and timeline of important life events are required.
Preliminary Task and Planning & Research
Sean Wayne created a front cover and contents page for a music magazine as a preliminary task. For the front cover, he added elements like the masthead, background colors, title, main image, articles and social media links. For the contents page, he included the masthead, editorial, article titles and summaries, and thumbnail images. He made minor corrections like making the signature bolder and changing some wording for clarity. In his research log, Sean analyzed the genres, target audiences, and unique selling points of established magazines like Q and Classic Rock to inform his own music magazine project.
Production Plan
This production plan outlines the process for producing a monthly magazine called "Chord" over four weeks. It details the schedule and tasks for each day, including researching the production process, deciding on a release date and budget, collecting content, layout and design, proofreading, printing, and distribution. The magazine will be released on the first of each month, with production starting the following day to meet tight deadlines.
Contents Page and DPS Analysis
1) The document analyzes the contents page and double page spread (DPS) of a music magazine through the lens of textual analysis theories.
2) Key elements that will be repeated on both pages include main images of stars to attract readers, subheadings to help navigation, and drop caps and stand firsts to draw readers into articles.
3) On the DPS specifically, a black and white image style will be continued to create a vintage aesthetic appealing to the target audience, while drop caps and stand firsts aim to increase reader engagement with the featured artist.
Locations Recce
This document outlines Sean Wayne's plans for taking photos for a school project on classic rock music. It details that Sean will take photos on school grounds between 12pm-3pm to get the best lighting. The photos will be mid-close ups of people holding instruments with high key lighting to look mysterious. The models will wear dark clothing like black t-shirts and leather jackets to appeal to the target audience. Sean will use Photoshop to edit the photos. Permission will need to be obtained from both the photo subjects and the school head teacher. There is a potential risk of distracting students if photos are taken near classes.
Primary Research Evidence
The survey results show that the target audience for the music magazine is younger than originally intended. Most respondents were aged 12-18 and female. The majority said the most important part of the cover is the artist's picture. Most preferred rock music and wanted to see a balance of articles and pictures in the magazine. Respondents were willing to pay £2-3 and wanted promotions like concert tickets. This summary provides the key findings and insights from the survey results.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Audience Profile
- 1. Audience Profile – Genre: Classic Rock Target Audience: Gender and Age (Hartley’s 7 Subjectivities) and why The denotation of the target audience for my new classic rock magazine is going to be middle-age men (aged 35-45) because some of the bands that I am covering will appeal to this audience. For example Led Zeppelin, Metallica and Guns N’ Roses. This group of people would also mostly likely have an interest in mechanics such as vintage cars and motor bikes. This can also include interests in things like leather jackets with darker colors, encouraging this group of people to buy magazines that show these interests. Socio-Economic Needs and why: The denotation of the socio-economic needs of the magazine's readership demographic is going to be people between groups B - C2 because the interests that these people have such as motorbikes etc., would require the person to be a skilled worker with have a high enough income in order to sustain such a hobby. For example owning a motor bike. This is due to both the amount of money needed to buy the equipment and the skill needed to look after and preserve your motor bike. Katz’ Uses & Gratifications Theory and Maslow’s Hierarchy of needs According to Katz’ Uses and Gratifications theory, the target readership will be able to ‘personally identify’ with the cover star because the main headline of the magazine will ‘inform’ the reader about the what the article that the cover star is featured in is about.as well as that the picture of the cover star may be able to give the readers a an indication on the mood and tone of the article, giving them an idea of what to expect. Also, according to Maslow's Hierarchy of needs the target readership will be able to ‘explore’ the differences in social change showing the what there favorite celebrities are doing and what is popular currently. This will influence the ‘social climbers’ to try new thing to try and improve their current life style. Stereotype(s): These men tend to be white men in the employment groups of B - C2. they are relatively well respected and have usually quite busy jobs. Sean Wayne Candidate No. : 1254
