Potential problems with my coursework
The document discusses potential problems and solutions for different aspects of a coursework project involving a magazine.

For the inside article, the potential problem is boring the audience with long texts given their short attention spans. To address this, the article will be kept succinct and only include key details. For accompanying images, the challenge is making them look realistic while relating to the article content. Using small props like headphones instead of obvious items like guitars can subtly represent the topic without drawing attention away from the model

Evaluation
My media product represents teenagers and young/middle aged adults as the magazine, Mute, focuses on a mixed gender pop band that would appeal to those age groups. The magazine uses neutral colors and covers the band's inspirational music and personalities to attract its target audience. I have progressed in my skills using programs like Photoshop and Fireworks to lay out the magazine, incorporate images, and learn industry conventions for creating a professional product.
Evaluation
The student's media product is a music magazine that uses conventions from real magazines like Vibe magazine. The student stuck to a simple color scheme of red, black, blue and white that is commonly used in Vibe magazine. The magazine represents various social groups between ages 16-25 like college students and university students. An organization like SB.TV would be suitable for distributing the magazine since it focuses on similar audiences. The target audience is British youth ages 16-25 that listen to genres like grime and rap. The student aimed to attract this audience through headlines, images, and a colorful consistent design. Creating the magazine helped the student learn new technologies like Prezi and improved skills in photography and Photoshop layout.

Media evaluation
The document discusses the author's media product, which is a music magazine. It summarizes how the author used conventions from real music magazines like NME, such as including a masthead, barcode, and date on the cover. However, it also challenged some conventions by leaving out a strapline or additional artist photos on the cover. The contents page followed NME's conventions of using a main image and subheadings on a colored block, and the double-page spread featured a large main image of the cover artist being interviewed. Overall, the author took inspiration from NME but kept the design simple and focused on direct connections between the reader and artists through large eye-contact photos.

- 5. 1, I decided to place my title in the same place as the NME magazine because it looks nice and effective and stand out. 2, I chose to put my image on the opposite side however because I thought it looked better due to the angle of the photo looking directly at you. 3, I made my writing overlap slightly on the image and behind image 2, to show more effects as the NME version looks very small. 4, I placed my introduction paragraph at the top rather than near the writing so it looks more interactive and not all in one area. 4, I also added a ‘quote’ box to make it look more effective as an interview, and made it stand out in a black box to make it different.
- 11. Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the final product Looking back at my preliminary task, I feel that I have majorly progressed as you can see from the images below. I learnt many skills on Photoshop than I knew at the beginning e.g. using the lasso tool to get the proper shape of the image outline. I learnt to put a background rather than using boxes. I also learnt to put effects on the fonts which makes it look much better in the music magazine. I also feel that I have learnt more about layout in the final product e.g. font on top of the image, and around. I also learnt to create a logo on Photoshop (the plug). As you can see in the preliminary it looks rather basic and plain, I feel that in the final task I have really tried to make it look interesting and bright rather than a white background and an image, whereas I have put a nice colour, more images and text.
- 12. I also feel that I have improved a lot while producing my contents page, as I learnt to improve the layout of the images, title and text and different layers and effects that I could add to texts and images and shapes. It was due to Photoshop that I could edit images easily too make them look good. As you can see there is a huge difference between the two pages. I feel that I made the music magazine one look much more interesting and bold and not basic by using a variety of effects.
