The masthead uses a bold red font that stands out against the black and white background, taking up about 1/5 of the page. The main coverline also uses red font and is larger than the masthead, focusing attention on the featured artist "NOEL". The date and price are in a smaller font next to the masthead. The color scheme of red, black, and white reflects the rock genre and brings back the idea of old music eras returning. The central image is of Noel Gallagher, representing celebrity endorsement, with his stern rock look facing slightly away but making direct eye contact with the viewer.

It reinforces stereotypes of the genre through facial expressions and poses that depict rebellious, moody, and angry attitudes. The distorted font on the magazine cover and the band's serious facial expressions and posture in the rain reinforce dark themes of rock and metal music.

It features interviews and behind-the-scenes footage showing how his record label worked to reintroduce him to audiences and capture new fans through promotional appearances, music videos, and exploiting his hard working personality. Various camera angles and editing techniques are used to portray Meat Loaf's star status and the busy work of the music industry.
Audience feedback

Respondents generally responded positively but noted a lack of background facts and exposition in the opening. Opinions on entertainment value were mixed.

Billboard advertisements follow certain codes and conventions. They typically have a white background to make text and images stand out. Minimal date information is included as viewers do not have much time to look. Slogans are short, bold, and contrasting to attract attention from passing drivers and intrigue them about the product. Logos are placed discretely as brand recognition is assumed, while main images take up most space to feature the product. Together, these visual elements provide crucial details in a glance to engage audiences.

Breakfast has evolved over generations from rarely being eaten in ancient times to becoming a popular meal today. While breakfast is now widely available in restaurants and cafes in the UK, 20 million Brits still skip it daily and those who do eat it only spend around 10 minutes on it. The UK has a higher percentage of people who skip breakfast compared to other European countries like Italy, France, and Spain. Marketing campaigns by food companies aim to promote their breakfast products and outline health benefits to improve sales and consumer habits, but many Brits still do not see breakfast as important despite its availability.

Radio Analysis
Mr. T answers a phone call in a radio advert for Mr. Snickers, with his iconic voice instantly recognizable to listeners.

Radio trailer production
We produced a radio trailer for our documentary using the same music featured at the beginning of the documentary to create consistency. The trailer was recorded in the college recording booth and edited in Adobe Premier Pro. Based on testing, we improved the structure by introducing the trailer with the music intro followed by vox pops within the voiceover for more interest. The final version features faded transitions between clips and a music bed that quiets during a voiceover stating the air time to avoid distraction.

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.
