Large text for the name
            of the magazine, making it
            stand out and easy to find
            when wanting to buy it.

                The band photos are black
                and white but for my
                front cover I edited the
                photo to make the people
                stand out. I did this by leaving
                them in their normal colour
                and then putting them
                against the black and white.

            Large text for the band
            names to make people want
            to read about it meaning they
            will buy the magazine.
The smaller text is other details or information which both
magazines include, and tells you what else will be inside.
The magazine’s name ‘SOUND’ is
  obvious to what the magazine will be
  based on, which means the social group
  would most likely be people who are
  into music, especially the ‘Indie’
  category.

       The band ‘Cherry and the
       Carnage’ is made up of two
       girls which do music that
       appeals to the young – middle
       social groups.
I think the magazine as a whole, looks as
thought it’s directed at a teen- middle
aged people. Younger people wouldn’t
really be into the type of music it includes
and older people quite a lot of the time,
enjoy music from years ago, if not, then
music by older bands.
What kind of media institution might
 distribute your media product and
                why?
 The types of media institutions that I think would distribute my magazine,
 would be:
 • Social network sites, e.g. Twitter, Facebook
 • possibly a few game sites that would attract the online gamers who are into
 Indie music.
 • Particular TV channels
 • Radio stations that play a lot of the same type of music as my magazine is
 based on, or at least the music that comes out nowadays.

 I think these institutions would distribute my magazine as they are most likely to
 have the same audience listening/watching as to who would like to buy the
 magazine.
Who would be the audience for your
         media product.
 I would say my music magazine’s audience would be the teen-middle aged
 people who are into their music, especially Indie, and like to know facts, gossip
 and stuff about their favourite artists. I say this because the band ‘Cherry and
 the Carnage’ is Indie music and for the magazine I made, the band has taken a
 big part, especially on the front cover. Indie music fans would either know of the
 band or know similar bands so if they saw gossip, news, information etc, on
 bands they know in a magazine, they would most likely want to read it, and
 therefore buy it.
 The audience would also be people who are into competitions and like going to
 concerts, as the magazine includes those sort of things as well.
How did you attract/address your
            audience.
To attract the audience, I made sure there were pictures, large text and colour
involved in the cover. The front cover has one photo but I made it fill the majority of
the page so people would immediately be able to see who the image is of. The
magazine’s name ‘SOUND’ and also the bands name ‘Cherry and the Carnage’, is in
large text to help grab the eye of the audience so that they can see what magazine it
is and what will be included clearly. I also included some colour and although it isn’t
bright colours all over, it isn’t dull, dark and boring either.
The text I put on the front cover was to help make the audience want to buy and
read what’s inside. Things such as ‘EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW’ will hopefully make fans
or readers want to read what the band has to say. Also by including a quote or two
from the interview will show what sort of things are said in the interview and can be
gossip, statements, the truth about something in which the audience will also want
to find out about.
What have you learnt about
    technologies from the process of
       constructing this product.
I have learnt how to be more creative whilst using a computer to create something.
Having to use Photoshop quite often to edit certain parts of the construction, has
made me realise how much work actually goes into these sort of media products.
I had to take my own images and edit them in certain ways so they were how I wanted
them for the magazine e.g. Putting someone from one photo into another photo they
weren’t originally in. I found being able to do this technique actually helped me do
quite a lot of the other parts within the construction.
I’ve also learnt that not everything goes how you want it on a computer, so I’ve had to
change my ideas or do them in different ways to get things done. E.g. The layout of
one of the pages in my magazine had to change as it wouldn’t go as planned.
Looking back at your preliminary
  task, what do you feel you have
learnt in the progression from it to
           the full product
I think my preliminary task was quite basic and didn’t have as much creativity
involved, where as my full product has more pages and a lot more topics
included within it. For the preliminary task, I wasn’t actually sure on where it was
heading and didn’t find it turned out as successful as it could of. I’ve also learnt
more techniques and been able to think of more ideas to include throughout the
magazine.
Even though I've used the same or similar programs to create each task, I found I
knew what I was doing more by the time I was constructing the full product.
How hard it is to stick to the plan is also something I've learned, as an idea is
easily forgotten, changed or won’t work. This meant I needed to come up with
something new or a way of making the idea work, which was quite hard and
stressful at times.
