Nadine's As Media Evaluation
The document discusses the development of a music magazine cover. It analyzes conventions used in real music magazines and how the author's magazine both follows and challenges some of these conventions. The author discusses photographing a model for the cover shoot and learning skills in Photoshop and InDesign to design the cover. These skills included changing backgrounds, editing lighting, using pull quotes and styling the masthead. The final cover represents an improvement over the author's initial understanding of magazine design conventions.
Magazine design
The document discusses magazine design choices such as:
1) Placing the masthead in the top left corner to make it eye-catching while allowing space for other elements.
2) Having the main cover line in the bottom left corner to allow for various images on the front page.
3) Incorporating a large, stylish central image on the cover to draw attention instead of multiple smaller photos.
Presentation of Conventions
The document compares the key conventions used in the front covers and contents pages of the author's music magazine and Vibe magazine. Both magazines use similar conventions such as bold mastheads at the top, images of artists with props representing their style, pull quotes to summarize articles, and listings of articles in the contents. However, the author's magazine includes more information on the cover and arranges some elements differently for variety. The document analyzes the purpose behind various design elements used in both magazines.
My magazine evaluation
The document compares the double page spread (DPS) in the author's magazine to real magazines. Both include strap lines to expand on headlines, drop caps to draw readers in, and full page photography. The author's DPS includes the masthead and page name for identification and a pull quote to engage readers, while the comparison magazine uses images to pull in readers who may not read much text. The similarities focus on design elements while the differences consider reader engagement strategies.
My magazine evaluation

Supersizeme media essay done
Morgan Spurlock's 2004 documentary "Supersize Me" documented the negative health effects of eating only food from McDonald's for 30 days. By eating three meals a day from McDonald's, Spurlock gained 24.5 pounds and his cholesterol increased. The film highlighted America's growing obesity problem, with 1 in 3 children in Mississippi facing obesity. It also showed that many schools were banning unhealthy foods in response. While the film had some positive impacts, it also represented some Americans as lazy for using diet pills instead of making lifestyle changes.
Evaluation Question 7
The document reflects on the learning and skills gained from an initial preliminary magazine cover task to the final full magazine product. Specifically, the author notes learning important technology skills in Photoshop and InDesign and gaining a better understanding of the magazine industry and how to target audiences. This increased knowledge and experience with design software allowed the author to create a higher quality final magazine.
Question 2
The magazine represents the broad rock music genre and its target audience of 16-30 year olds. It uses an informal tone and common vocabulary to be accessible to this age group across social classes, as rock music appeals to many. The magazine incorporates different rock sub-genres to be inclusive of various tastes within its overall focus on rock music and lifestyle.
Question 1
The media product uses many conventions of real magazines, such as the masthead, sell lines, pull quotes, barcodes, and a "win" icon. The contents page also follows conventions like listing the "Contents" at the top, featuring a main image relating to the cover story, including the editor's letter, and titles/subtitles of articles. However, one double page spread was made to look more unconventional with a slanted diagonal line separating the image and article. The article also uses an interview format with questions in red and answers in black. Continuity is created through consistent colors, images and styles.
Evalutation
The double page spread uses a large main image taking up the entire left page to create visual interest and balance for the text on the right page. The text is separated into two columns as is commonly done in other magazines and includes a smaller embedded image. A footer with the magazine's title and social media links is added to tie the pages together, mimicking features found in other real media products.

Question seven
The student learned more about specific magazine genres and technologies through their preliminary and final tasks. They progressed in taking higher quality pictures using rules of thirds. Researching different music genres and styles helped create a more professional looking magazine. Knowledge of typical magazine conventions and research into music magazine conventions improved the preliminary task into a final music magazine.
Question three
IPC media is a large UK publisher that distributes magazines like NME, though its genre may not match the document's magazine. IPC's Look and Now magazines could be a good fit. InterMedia Partners distributes magazines like Vibe that would likely match the genre and audience of the document's magazine. As InterMedia has successfully marketed Vibe, they could effectively distribute the magazine.
Question one
