The document discusses the target audience as older teenage girls and how the student addressed this audience through fashionable modeling, competitions, and language appropriate to the age group. Finally, it reflects on what was learned through creating the media product, such as editing techniques, technologies used, and how to develop an initial idea into a more polished final product.

The document discusses the design choices made for a magazine project, including selecting a unique font for the masthead, taking photos at a golf course with a model holding a guitar, and interviewing popular artists to appeal to the target audience. Conventions from existing magazines were followed for layouts like the contents page but also challenged through creative choices such as large images covering pages. In conclusion, both conforming to and innovating from magazine conventions was seen as important to create a familiar yet distinctive product.
Evaluation
The document discusses the author's magazine and how it both follows and challenges conventions of its genre. It has one main image on the cover like similar magazines but challenges conventions by having the title take up the entire front cover to make it more eye-catching. The magazine is aimed at 14-25 year olds who enjoy indie music. Potential publishers are music magazine publishers as the author's unique take on the genre could attract audiences.
Writing a proposal
Eleanor West plans to create an indie/alternative magazine aimed at teenagers and young adults aged 17-30. While Q Magazine will be its main competition due to a similar genre and audience, her magazine will include more younger age groups and appeal to both male and female readers. It will be released monthly to provide more content than weekly magazines. Key elements will include high-quality design, long-form articles on up-and-coming artists, and engagement through social media to make the magazine unique.
Media music magazine evalutaion
My magazine uses many conventional techniques of real magazines, such as including a bar code, title, interview, contents page, color scheme, images of people, layout, extras, and posters. The bar code, title, and color scheme were designed to attract my target audience of rock music fans and make the magazine look authentic. Features like the interview, contents page, and use of models help tell the story of the artists and engage readers. Including extras and free posters with the magazine encourages people to buy it. Overall, the magazine represents my progression from the initial school magazine assignment by applying what I have learned about magazine design conventions to create a more polished and professional final product.
As media evaluation spell checked
The document summarizes the design and content choices made for an R&B music magazine targeted at 16-30 year olds. Key points include:
- The cover features a smiling black male model in trendy clothing to represent the target audience while breaking stereotypes of serious poses.
- The magazine aims to appeal to both male and female readers and includes sections beyond just music to draw in a wider range of interests.
- Distribution would likely be through major retailers like WHSmith that have a wide reach, including smaller stores in places like train stations.
One.
The document discusses various design elements of a magazine front cover and contents page for a pop music magazine, analyzing how they conform to stereotypical conventions of the pop genre. These include using bright colors, catchy titles, airbrushed celebrity images, and columns of easy-to-read text with pull quotes. The target audience is described as young females, so the designs aim to attract this demographic with extravagant fonts, fashionable costumes, and an emphasis on female idols.
Final evaluation
The student is pleased with how their music magazine turned out overall. They aimed to represent a feminine audience of teenagers and feel they achieved this through their choice of colors, fonts, model poses, and topics covered. They followed conventions from real music magazines but also developed some of their own ideas. Their intended audience is teenage girls interested in music, fashion, and celebrities. They tried to attract this audience through an attractive front cover model and intriguing article headlines.
House style & mode of address
The document discusses magazine layout and design elements that could be used for a music magazine targeting 16-24 year olds. It analyzes magazines like Vibe, Q, Mojo, Billboard and NME to find effective design techniques. Some key elements that could be adopted include Vibe's faded letter in the background for brand recognition, Q's use of images and page numbers on the contents page for easy navigation, and NME's bold writing of featured artists on the cover. The document proposes using a simple, image-focused layout like Vibe that appeals to the target demographic. Colors like red, black and white would be used consistently across pages to create a recognizable style.
Evaluation Question 1
The document discusses the student's media magazine project and how it uses and develops conventions of real music magazines.
The student used conventions like consistent colors, fonts, and model photos to create continuity. Features included a masthead, puffs, cover lines, thumbnails on the contents page, and social media links.
The double page spread continues conventions with a pull quote, column layout for an interview, and drop cap. Comparisons are made to real magazines to show how conventions were developed, such as an exclusive story box and letter from the editor.
Question 5
The document discusses various methods used to attract and address the target audience for a magazine. These include:
1) Using direct address in interviews and photos of models posing as chart artists to represent the target audience.
2) Focusing on big, well-known chart artists that the target audience is interested in learning about.
3) Employing direct address on the front cover to make readers feel personally involved.
4) Choosing a front cover photo of artists looking directly at the camera to build a connection with readers.
5) Crafting an attention-grabbing strapline to entice readers to learn more inside.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Evaluation question 5
- 2. I have looked a t other professional magazines that are indie and I have looed at all the different designs. I have focused on the images, fonts and incentives and I have tried to include them in my magazine in the same way professional magazines do so that my target audience would be interested in buying my magazine. On my front cover I have made my masthead the main part of the page so it appeals and stands out so people will recognise goldmine magazine and will want to buy it. I have also made the models look at the camera so they look like they are being more interactive and they look positive to make the magazine look happy and fun. The main cover story is in a different font that is bold so people will be that straight away and they will wan to look for the main story in the magazine. I have also put incentives on my magazine so people will want to buy my magazine because of the offers or free things that come included with it.
- 3. On my double page spread have used a model that is the same age as my target audience so that readers are interested and they will wan to find out about what the artists will be doing next and what they say in there interviews. Also because teenagers who are my target audience speak quite unformal I have wrote like that in my magazine so it fits in with them and they will understand while reading it and will enjoy the language its written in. I have used appealing fonts that are different to other magazines so readers can see something different and they will be attracted because my magazine will be something different but is still a indie magazine. Also the star of the magazine is one of the first thing that a reader looks at so I have made them look positive and happy and they are dressed indie so they fit in with the magazine and they will make the readers interested as they are the artists that they like to read about and hear about their latest music.
- 4. I have tried to attract the audience on my contents page by looking at other contents pages of professional magazines and trying to create something similar but in my own way so that people who like them magazines would also be interested in buying mine. I have done this by using images of the artists that are featured and they all look positive and are dressed indie. They are also different sexes so that the market opens for my magazine and more people will buy it. I have used bold titles to show what they main content of my magazine is and what the feature articles are. I have also used different fonts that are appealing and fit in with the style of the magazine. The design is quite unformal and fits in with what type of magazine I wanted to design and the colour scheme fits in and I have used unisex colours like yellows and greys so that everyone will be attracted to it. All the models are in their teens as well so my target audience will wan to buy my magazine as people that are their age are featured in it.
