question 5: Aspects of what attracts the reader, contents page.
The document discusses strategies for marketing a pop music magazine to female audiences. It suggests that featuring beautiful fashion images on the contents page will persuade females to purchase the magazine so as not to miss out on fashion tips. It also notes that organizing information into clear categories makes it easy for consumers to find what they want quickly. Additionally, it claims that using a bright, girly color scheme on the front cover and contents page will appeal to girls and reflect the type of pop music content. Broad social media promotion is also recommended to demonstrate the magazine's popularity and allow constant mobile access to attract readers to purchase the printed magazine.

Q5

Feedback was collected using Facebook messages and iMessage, reflecting how the target audience uses social media and phones. Overall, the focus group liked the women in music theme and inclusion of prizes. Some said they wouldn't purchase music magazines, but others said they'd pay more than £2.20 monthly, showing the author priced it reasonably.
Media course as questionnaire
The survey results show that the target audience for the magazine is women ages 18-45 who are interested in fashion. Most respondents said they would buy a magazine sold once a month and be attracted to articles on fashion trends, celebrity gossip, and decorating tips. The front cover needs an attractive celebrity image to draw readers, and the magazine should feature both high-end and affordable brand names. Pricing it between £3-4 will aim to maximize sales.

Question 3
IPC Media would be best to distribute the magazine globally to reach the target 16-21 year old audience. IPC is a worldwide distribution company, allowing the magazine to be sold in countries like the USA. This broadens the potential market since worldwide music stars will be featured. Other companies were rejected since they lack IPC's global scale and couldn't support the desired large readership and sales. The magazine will retail for £4 monthly since students have limited income, making a weekly publication unaffordable. It will be available at stores like Tesco and HMV that target older teens and online via websites and apps accessible to younger readers.
Q3 Evaluation

The document states the magazine would not be sold at live music venues or rock clothing stores because those locations would not attract a wide enough readership.

Elements of existing magazines like Mixmag and Spin are built upon in aspects of the magazine like the masthead, cover star positioning, and contents page layout, while also challenging conventions through the use of a white background and larger featured images.
The evaluation
Matthew Cliffe is submitting a media studies portfolio to OCR that includes a magazine called 'Z'. The magazine targets males aged 16-25 interested in genres like EDM and dubstep. Cliffe believes there is a gap in the market for a magazine specifically focused on these music subgenres. He discusses how the magazine would be similar to Mixmag but more niche in its focus. Cliffe also explains how the features, cover star, and distribution methods were chosen to best represent and appeal to the target demographic.
My final media evaluation
This is my powerpoint presentation about my progress and tasks I have completed while doing AS Media.
3. research
Here are some key points from the interview:
- The person cares about dressing appropriately for the occasion and weather. This shows they put thought into their outfits.
- They would give honest feedback to a friend about an unflattering outfit, indicating they are looking out for others.
- TV/film is a source of style inspiration, suggesting visual media influences their fashion choices.
Your magazine could appeal to this audience by including outfit inspiration galleries from current shows/movies, as well as tips on dressing for different events and seasons. Providing honest yet tactful fashion advice may also resonate given their willingness to give feedback to friends.
AS MEDIA COURSEWORK: The Evaluation
The document provides instructions for a media studies evaluation assignment involving the planning and production of a music magazine. It outlines seven questions to be addressed in the evaluation and expectations for formatting the response in PowerPoint. Some key points:
- There are seven questions relating to planning, production, audience, representation, distribution, technologies used, and lessons learned.
- A minimum of five slides per question is recommended, using images, color coding, and other visual elements.
- The evaluation is worth 20 marks and each question must be addressed separately with details.
- Good communication skills should be demonstrated in submitting and presenting the evaluation.
Q3&4
The document discusses distributing a magazine targeted towards teens and people in their early twenties. It suggests distributing the magazine both physically in stores like corner shops and larger stores like WHSmith, as well as digitally online to access a larger audience. An online version would allow embedding videos alongside articles to further engage the target audience. While digital distribution is important, physical copies would still be available for those without internet access. The document recommends Bauer Media as the distributing institution since they already publish a similar magazine called Kerrang! and have experience successfully distributing popular youth media.
Feedback - Questionnaire results
This document reports the results of surveys given to test audiences about various aspects of a magazine designed for a female audience aged 15-18. Overall the results were positive, with front covers, target audiences, color schemes, models, and overall appearance being correctly identified and found appealing by 80% or more of respondents. The document analyzes each survey question and result individually, noting which aspects were most successful and which could potentially be improved, such as using brighter colors on interior pages.
Evaluation
This document contains an evaluation of a media product created by the author. It discusses several ways in which the author's media product both uses conventions of real media products and challenges some conventions. It addresses how the product represents a particular social group (young people aged 16-18) through techniques like cover images and bright colors. The document also discusses what type of media institution might distribute the product and who the target audience is. It describes how the audience was attracted through elements like colors, images, and cover lines. Finally, it reflects on what was learned about technologies and the creative process through constructing this media product.
Music Magazine Evaluation
My magazine uses, develops, and challenges conventions of real media products. It uses conventions like:
- Consistent color schemes and layouts seen in magazines like NME and Q
- Page numbers, subheadings, and editors letters located on contents pages
It develops conventions by:
- Having a purple color scheme to appeal to women rather than typical indie magazine red/black
- Altering layouts of pages like the contents page
It challenges conventions by:
- Specifically targeting women aged 18-25 for an indie music magazine rather than a mixed or male audience
- Not including advertisements on pages like the contents page
In summary, my magazine borrows proven conventions but makes them unique by adapting colors
Question 2
My media product represents several social groups:
- The target age group is teenagers aged 16-19, as evidenced by the use of popular artists, free gifts, and busy layout that would appeal to younger audiences.
- The target gender is primarily female, based on market research showing 78.58% interest from women. Female-oriented colors, artists, and an interview with a female pop star are used.
- The target social class is middle and working class, as the affordable price, popular music genres, and busy design would appeal most to these groups.

Rebecca created a magazine called "Indigo" that was inspired by popular mainstream magazines like Vogue and Cosmopolitan. She used conventions like a large masthead and centered cover photo but challenged conventions by omitting coverlines. Rebecca represented her target audience of teenage girls through the cover model's clothing and pose. She believes her magazine would be distributed by IPC Media, a large publisher of music and gossip magazines, to attract her target audience of females aged 15-30 interested in pop and R&B music.

Using photography photoshop and publisher
The document discusses the skills needed to create posters and magazine covers using photography, Photoshop, and Publisher. It explains that the creator took multiple photos of characters through multiple photoshoot sessions to have variety to choose from when designing the poster and magazine cover. Photoshop was used to edit photos by cropping, adjusting brightness and contrast, and removing red eye. Photoshop was also used to create the poster by adding color, text, and a large central photo. Publisher was used to create the magazine cover as it was easier for formatting text than Photoshop.

Evaluation
- 1. Who would be the audience for your media product ?
- 4. My Magazine I think that my magazine would appeal to teenagers, this is because the people in the pictures are teenagers and the colour scheme isn’t something that you’d relate to older people. I also thing that maybe some children would appreciate this magazine because it has the conventions of a modern day adult music magazine, I think that this is good because they will pick up the magazine to look cool in front of their friends because it might make them look cool.
