Arts 3 4
1. The document discusses key concepts in arts and crafts related to color including the difference between hue and value, definitions of primary and secondary colors, examples of warm colors and how they are used to contrast colors in compositions.
2. Specific artworks are analyzed to explain the meanings conveyed by their use of colors, including Van Gogh's Sunflowers and paintings by Claude Monet and Henri Matisse that use either color analogy or contrast.
3. The document also covers geometric concepts like segment bisectors, defining angles, dividing a segment into equal parts and examples of different types of angles. Examples of shapes drawn include a triangle, square and circle.
Math gloosary 1 mixed numbers and improper fractions
The document defines mixed fractions as containing both whole numbers and fractions, providing the example of "2 3/4" as a mixed fraction. It also defines improper fractions as when the numerator is larger than the denominator, such as "3/4". It provides steps for converting an improper fraction into a mixed fraction by first solving the equation, then dividing the remainder by the denominator.
Magazine research
The document discusses magazine layouts and fonts. It summarizes that the writer likes layouts with a large central picture and writing down the sides to provide information. They also prefer a big title with contrasting colors that complement the front cover. All of the fonts discussed are said to be easy to read in clear, bold colors that fit well with the rest of the magazine text.
Evaluation six
The document discusses the various technologies used to create draft and final magazines, including a Pasonic camera to take all images, a Dell Inspiron laptop for documents, PowerPoints, and blogging, and a Mac laptop loaded with Photoshop for designing the draft and final magazines at home and school. Other technologies mentioned were SlideShare, Scribd, Blogger, dafont, and myfonts. Physical notebooks were used for notes during the research, planning, and production stages.
Evaluation Seven
The document compares the author's preliminary magazine task to their final magazine, highlighting improvements in their Photoshop skills and the quality of the images. For the preliminary task, the author was new to Photoshop and images were of lower quality due to lighting and background issues. However, for the final magazine, the author had gained Photoshop skills like cutting out images neatly and using layers. They also planned images better by considering location, lighting, and model positioning. Researching other magazines also helped with layout, style choices, and generating creative ideas. Overall, thorough research and planning were essential for the success of the final magazine.
Evaluation Five
The document discusses audience feedback received on a magazine cover, contents page, and double-page spread. Younger audiences aged 16-18 liked the minimalist layout but thought it may not appeal to some due to the lack of color and variety typically seen. Middle-aged audiences appreciated the mature, simple style with basic colors that complemented the look. Older audiences preferred the minimal writing on the cover as excessive text and bright colors can be off-putting. Overall, the feedback was positive and will be considered for improvements.
Evaluation Four
The document discusses creating an audience profile for a magazine. It describes the target audience as being 18-24 years old, interested in indie/alternative music, fashion, going to live music shows and festivals. It compares the target audiences of magazines Q and NME, noting that Q seems aimed at an older audience based on more suggestive front cover images, while NME uses less provocative images seeming to target a younger demographic.
Evaluation Two
This document discusses the representation of a particular social group in a magazine. It notes the similarities in the black and white clothing and direct eye contact with no expressions of two musicians, Dalilah Moon and Ellie Goulding, in images. It states that both artists look quirky and would appeal to a social group that is middle class, white, ages 18-24, interested in music and fashion.

This document discusses the similarities and differences between the magazine being proposed, Lithium, and the existing music magazine NME. It states that Lithium and NME would be very similar magazines as they would both include the same genres of music and bands, as well as promote up-and-coming artists. However, it also notes that while the magazines would be similar, they would have some different design features such as the font, cover, and content pages, making them not identical publications.
Eval 7
The document compares the author's preliminary task on Photoshop to their final magazine cover and contents page, highlighting improvements in their skills. When first using Photoshop for the preliminary task, the author was unfamiliar with the software and tools. By creating a draft cover, the author learned skills like neat cutting, layers, and color changes. For the final cover and contents, the author felt more knowledgeable applying these learned skills. Images for the preliminary task were poorly located and lit compared to thoughtful planning for lighting and composition in the final magazine images. Overall, the author's Photoshop skills and quality of work improved noticeably from preliminary to final tasks.

Both Dalilah Moon and Ellie Goulding are represented in black and white photos against plain backgrounds where they look directly at the camera without expression. Their similar classic and simple costumes would appeal to the same quirky social group as both artists relate well to others.
Test shots
The document discusses test shots. It likely refers to test photos or test footage taken as part of a photography or filmmaking project. The test shots are used to check equipment settings, lighting conditions, composition, and other technical aspects before full production begins. They allow the filmmakers to work out any issues on a small scale before investing significant resources into the primary shoot.
Love magazine
Love magazine uses a single dominant image taking up most of the cover, typically with a plain gray or colored background. The covers consistently feature the phrase "Fashion and Fame" somewhere, which the document author likes for its alliteration and consistency across issues.
Examples of fonts
This document discusses choosing a font for an artist's name from examples on the website DaFont. The author's favorite font from five examples was "Angle Tears" because it is not too big and bold but would still stand out on magazine covers or album art.

Artists name

Magazine Inspiration
The document discusses the inspiration for a magazine cover, specifically praising the layout, fonts, colors, and images used in special edition covers of NME magazine. The writer's favorite cover features a close-up image of Florence filling the entire front cover with text overlaid, using a three-color scheme of red, white, and black that makes her red hair stand out against the contrasting colors. This NME cover style is what the writer wants to emulate for their own magazine cover.
Magazine Name
The author chose the name "Lithium" for their magazine because it is the title of a well-known Nirvana song. They also used a Nirvana cover photo for one of their annotated front covers. The author explored different fonts on Da Font to choose the title style and narrowed it down to two options, ultimately selecting the Lobster font because it is big, bold, and curved.

Colour scheme
- 1. Colour Palettes For the colour scheme on my magazine I wanted to stick with a three colour palette as on most magazines they also have a three colour palette. I think that sticking to three colours keeps a consistent look through out the magazine. With both of the colour palettes that I have created I have kept the black and grey colours for both of these as they are rather simple colours and make the third colour stand out. The colour scheme I have decided to use on my magazine is the black, grey and red. I have chosen this because I think they theses three colours blend really well together as shown on the cover of NME featuring MIA shown below.
