Style sheet
The document discusses style and layout plans for an indie pop magazine. It describes choosing simple colors like white, grey, and pastels for the backgrounds and text. The font Homizio Nova Regular is selected for articles as it is easy to read like magazines Q and NME. Dolce Vita Heavy Bold is picked for the masthead as it has a sharp, clean look like The Fly magazine. Photography plans include shooting a cover with two models posing as an indie pop duo in a studio. A double page spread will feature individual shots of each model in different poses. The contents page will include a medium long shot of a male musician and a medium shot of a female musician playing guitar in an urban setting.

House Style Of Source
The document summarizes the style elements of music magazines, including consistent fonts and layouts for magazine titles, close-up celebrity images on the covers to attract buyers, and informal language in captions and interviews that match the hip hop genre and keep the covers looking simple.
Evaluation question 1 [autosaved]
This document analyzes the media conventions used in the student's magazine project. It discusses several common conventions used for magazine covers, layouts, and double page spreads. These include using mastheads, model photos, consistent formatting for things like issue numbering, pull quotes, and two-column text layouts. The student evaluates how their project does or does not follow typical conventions in these areas. They provide examples from existing magazines to illustrate conventions and compare to their own work.
Articles
The document analyzes two double page spreads from music magazines. The first spread features Dizzee Rascal and summarizes his rise from graffiti artist to music fame. Images and layout emphasize his past life and journey from "tags to riches." The second spread profiles My Chemical Romance and frontman Gerard Way. Images depict the band members in a serious, dangerous style matching the subheading "the color of danger." Both articles use concise columns and design elements to engage busy music fans in short summaries of the artists' experiences and albums.
Magazine Conventions
The document discusses the design elements of magazine covers for NME over time. It notes that the masthead, featuring the letters "NME" in red font with white outlines, has generally remained in the top left corner through different issues. While the masthead design is consistent, its color has changed on some covers. The main cover photo is always large to draw attention, and secondary stories are included to provide more details. Captions and headlines use a casual, humorous tone aimed at younger readers. Overall, the magazine's cover design emphasizes the central artist or story while maintaining a consistent visual identity through consistent placement of design elements.
AS Media Studies Evaluation Question 1
In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
AS MEDIA COURSEWORK EVALUATION
Abigail Firth evaluated her developing skills in magazine design and layout. For her final music magazine piece, she challenged conventions by including only female photos and targeting both male and female readers. She skillfully used Photoshop and Publisher to create professional-looking pages that followed standard magazine design practices. While new technologies like Photoshop were initially difficult to learn, her skills improved over the course of the project, allowing her to produce high-quality images and layouts for her final music magazine.
AS MEDIA COURSEWORK EVALUATION
Abigail Firth evaluated her music magazine design project. She followed conventions like placing the masthead at the top of the front cover and using two colors and fonts. For the contents page, she aligned text on the left and images on the right. Her double page spread had a large title and columns of text around a large central image. She represented her cover model differently on the cover and spread. Her target audience was 15-25 year old British music fans. She used attention-grabbing colors, fonts, and buzzwords to attract readers. Over time, her skills with Photoshop and magazine design conventions improved, though she still has more to learn.
Magazine cover analysis kerrang
The magazine cover uses design principles to attract its target audience. The masthead in red is in the primary optical area to draw the eye. The main image of the band MUSE takes up most of the front cover. Sans serif typefaces and bold colors like red and yellow are used to appeal to rock fans. The lighting highlights the band's faces to promote them as the featured article.

Audience feedback
This document summarizes feedback from 4 people on a magazine cover design and double page spread. For the cover, most felt the image could be improved and some colors did not work well together. For the double page spread, most agreed the main image should be on the left page and be larger in size.

Kerrang!media pack2016

The magazine has the biggest exclusives and is the highest selling music magazine in the UK. The website attracts millions of monthly visitors and social media followers. Kerrang! TV and radio also have large audiences among youth ages 16-34 who are loyal fans of rock music.
Effective photography
The document discusses magazine layout techniques including using the rule of thirds and including midshots of people with enough headroom and noseroom to fit titles. It provides examples from three magazines - Mojo, NME, and Kerrang. For covers, Mojo uses a midshot of a person facing the camera with space above for the title. NME uses a midshot of an artist with a background suiting their style. Kerrang uses space to feature other magazine elements. Interior pages also employ the rule of thirds and midshots of people or bands, sometimes splitting pages or using different images on a double spread.
Task2
The document analyzes various design elements of a music magazine cover and contents page focusing on the band The White Stripes.
It summarizes that the bold logo and tagline sizes prioritize important information for readers. Font and color choices appeal to the rock genre target audience. The cover highlights the band's breakup using red text.
The contents page uses fonts, colors and images consistent with the cover to identify sections. A photo gives readers context for the main article subject. Layout maintains consistency while neatly presenting information.
Language remains informal to engage younger readers, with short sentences for quick scanning. Typography, images and colors follow rock music conventions to effectively promote stories to fans.
