It outlines how the product uses and challenges conventions from real magazines in its layout, content, and visual design. Images and topics were chosen to represent and attract the target demographic. Skills learned from using Photoshop, InDesign, and other technologies included photo editing, layout, and design techniques. Reflecting on preliminary tasks helped apply research and improve the final product.
Evaluation one
The document discusses how a media product follows and challenges conventions. It summarizes how the magazine cover follows conventions through the use of a masthead, direct address for the main image, and a consistent color scheme. It challenges conventions by placing the main image off-center. The contents page follows conventions through its organization and branding consistency, while one image challenges conventions by using indirect address. The article page follows conventions with its headline, standfirst, and byline, while challenging conventions by only using one main image instead of multiple like typical magazines.
Final Major Project Proposal
Ellie Ryan is proposing to create a magazine as her final major project. The magazine will target teenage girls and young adult women. It will belong to the popular culture and fashion genre, featuring a celebrity on the cover and a two-page article about their life and style. Photography and graphic design will be used to make the magazine visually appealing. The content will meet the target audience's needs by including information on fashion, celebrities, and career inspiration. Production techniques like online research, layout design, and photo editing software will be employed.
Media evaluation
1) The document evaluates a fashion magazine called "Joli Nails" created for a media studies task.
2) The magazine targets mid-teen and young adult females and aims to provide nail art ideas that can be done at home on a budget.
3) While the magazine challenges some conventions by having an asymmetrical cover layout and colorful interior, it keeps other conventions like a large masthead and cover lines.
Mag evaluation
The document describes a football magazine created by the author for males aged 14-20. The magazine, titled "futbolístico", provides the latest football news and updates in a clear layout. It aims to include key conventions of mainstream football magazines such as barcodes, dates, prices, and headings to appear professional. The author conducted research on target audiences and incorporated their feedback to improve the magazine. Technologies like Photoshop and a DSLR camera were used to manipulate graphics and take high-quality photos, enhancing the creativity and professional appearance of the final product.
Evaluation questions
The document discusses questions about how the media product uses or challenges conventions of real products, how it represents a social group, what type of institution may distribute it, who the target audience is, and how the audience was attracted. The respondent learned about different technologies used in the construction process like PowerPoint, Word, and Photoshop. Some uploading sites caused issues but also helped the respondent learn. Looking back, the preliminary task lacked creativity but research and planning helped learning about the magazine industry.
Evaluation
- The document discusses how the media product uses conventions from real magazines, such as photography style, page layouts, and design elements. It aims to emulate these conventions to seem like a realistic magazine.
- Some conventions were developed further, like maintaining a focus on one artist across pages for continuity. Other conventions were challenged, like only featuring one band instead of multiple.
- The document discusses how the media product represents the alt-rock scene and its intended audience of young, fashionable music fans with disposable income through its chaotic layout and designs.
Evaluation
My media product aims to attract a primary audience of music fans aged 16-21 who enjoy indie music, fashion, and lifestyle. It focuses exclusively on promoting the indie genre. Research showed the most popular artist among fans was Alex Turner, so featuring him exclusively could draw attention. I would pitch the product to media institutions like IPC, who are more open to funding new ideas from independent creators. The magazine uses conventions of real media products in its design, with a prominent cover image and article previews to engage readers. Informal language helps address the younger target audience. Creating the magazine helped me learn skills in using software like Photoshop and how to operate hardware like digital cameras.
R&b evaluation part 3
The document describes the process of creating a double page spread for a magazine. It discusses upgrading the last draft to be more unique by cutting up the title into single letters. The author positions the title at the top and leaves space for a light image on the right side. Referring back to the front cover colors, a dark background is used to contrast with the light image, and a purple shadow is added to give a 3D effect rather than a flat look. Guidelines are followed to thoughtfully position text boxes across the double page spread.
Evaluation powerpoint
This document summarizes the evaluation of a media magazine product. It discusses how the magazine uses conventions of real magazines, represents particular social groups of teenagers and young adults interested in rock music, and why the magazine publisher IPC would be a good fit for distribution. The document also discusses how audience research was conducted and what technologies were learned through creating the magazine, and improvements from the preliminary task in using Photoshop tools.
Evaluation.
- The document is an evaluation of a media product (a magazine) created by the author.
- The author did not include a traditional masthead but placed the title prominently at the top of the page. Colors and graphics were used instead of a bold masthead.
- Conventions like issue number, date, and barcode were included. The price of £2.35 was chosen based on market research of similar magazines targeted at the author's intended audience.
- The author learned about using layers and positioning elements in the editing software GIMP. Uploading images and content to platforms like blogs posed some technical challenges as well. Overall the process helped improve the author's skills with media technologies.

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Creative critical reflection
- 1. CREATIVE CRITICAL REFLECTION Media Studies
- 2. How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues? The social groups that are represented in my magazine are the readers who are involved in day to day fashion which can be both the younger generation as well as the middle aged. My magazine would be read by people aged between 14 – 40. People who are interested in fashion genre. People who like to dress up and are concerned about their beauty. (mainly the female gender)
- 3. The genre that I chose is women’s fashion, since I myself have a lot of interest in knowing about the present fashion talk. It’s important for women to know about fashion. One more reason for making a fashion magazine is that more people like to buy fashion magazines instead of food magazines or sports magazines.
- 4. Conventions Front cover: Main heading- The name of my magazine is ‘Glitz’ which basically relates to something more glamorous or showy. The font of the main heading is obviously supposed to big and bold so that it stands out and attracts the eye of the reader. A picture of my model- The age of my model reflects the age of my target audience. The look that the model gives through the cover to the reader is a way of communication with him or her. All the accessories clothing items and shoes create a meaning. Feature articles- are all the appealing things to the market which I have chosen. This will encourage more and more people to buy the magazine.
- 5. Contents • Pictures- to give the reader a clear idea of the genre. These are the comments I got when I asked about my content page: “The pictures go well with the genre.” “It gives a nice look to the content page.” Page numbers- along with page numbers I also put some interesting headings and further sub headings to them.
- 6. Double spread- I used one picture on the double spread the background was dark and the text color was black and white which looked quite appealing. It’s important to use bold and large fonts on the double spread as it has a lot of text on it and it should be easy to read for the buyers.
- 7. How does your product engage with audience and how would it be distributed as a real media text? The reason why there should be a target audience is that because the interests are fulfilled. It’s important to make the heading stand out and the picture should be appealing to the audience. I also used some codes and conventions and broke some being successful either ways)
- 8. How did your production skills develop throughout this project? Blogs- most importantly I learned to put information on a blog. I have been working on weebly and I found it very interesting to share information there. Research- A lot of research is required while working on a magazine to make it the most appealing and attractive one in the market.
- 9. I made an account on weebly which is a blogging site and posted all my daily posts there as assigned by my class teacher. Secondly the camera that I used for the photoshoot was nikon d3200 with a 55mm lens. I imported the pictures to the computer and used the software adobe photoshop cs3 to edit the picture and make the magazine cover, content page and the double spread of the magazine. I also used powerpoint to make presentations such as this one to post on the blog.
