The document discusses research conducted on pop music magazines as a genre to help design a new music magazine. Some key findings were that pop music appeals most to teenagers aged 13-19, girls are more likely than boys to listen to and buy pop music, and magazines use bright colors, bold images and fonts to attract female readers.

Survey review
The survey results showed that rock music was the most popular genre among sixth form students. This informed the creator that focusing their music magazine on rock would attract the largest audience. The results also indicated that most students would be willing to pay between £0-£1.50 for the magazine, so pricing it around £1.50 would make it accessible without being too expensive. Finally, releasing the magazine monthly was deemed the best frequency based on it being the most common response.

media evaluation
The media product represents social groups by featuring a young female model on the cover to appeal to younger audiences. Both male and female teenagers are the target demographic. The model's stylish clothing keeps up with fashion trends to relate to this audience. The R&B genre is popular among younger generations. The layout, model, and color scheme aim to make the magazine stylish and modern while following conventions of similar music magazines.
How did you attract/address your audience?
This document discusses strategies for targeting a magazine's audience. It aims to attract 16-27 year olds, primarily males. To attract more female readers, an attractive female model is used on the cover based on Naomi Wolf's theory. The cover image uses a romantic/sexual facial expression to project mystery and sexuality, as described by Marjorie Ferguson's 1980 theory. The magazine also aims to provide escapism, information, opportunities for relationships, and a sense of personal identity, as outlined in Bulmer and Kats' 1974 uses and gratifications theory. An article featuring a young solo female artist is included to inspire and relate to the target audience.
Evaluation question 5
The document discusses how the author attracted their target audience of teenagers to their rock music magazine. On the front cover, the young model with piercings and stretchers showed it was aimed at a younger audience interested in rock music. The word "LOUD!" in the masthead also conveyed rock music. Additionally, a contest to win festival tickets targeted teenagers who attend that festival. On the contents page, social media links and current bands like PVRIS and Bring Me the Horizon attracted young readers. Similarly, using young models throughout was consistent with the target audience. The double page spread further attracted by mentioning other bands readers might like, using the same young models, and clothing styles associated with the target demographic.
Question 2: Who would be your target audience?
The target audience for the music magazine is males and females ages 15-21. This age range was chosen because the author is a teenager and wants to relate to a familiar genre, which is R&B. Research found R&B was popular among teenagers and young adults. The magazine aims to attract both genders equally and feature a female artist to challenge stereotypes. It also aims to have a non-race specific audience and feature an artist of Turkish background. The target audience would mostly come from a working-class or middle-class background and have interests in music, fashion, social media, and culture.
Media question !!!

Ideas for Name of magazine
The document discusses the selection of the name "Movie Talk" for the group's horror magazine. They chose this name because it sounds professional and implies the magazine will discuss movies in theaters. They also wanted a general film magazine rather than one focused solely on horror. When asking members of the target audience which name seemed most professional, "Movie Talk" was preferred. The group did not select other proposed names like "Total Horror" due to being too similar to an existing magazine or not fitting the target demographic and content.
New ideas for tagline
1) The group researched taglines to find one relating to their slasher film's narrative and subgenre. They conducted a focus group to get audience input on potential options.
2) Effective existing taglines hint at the narrative without spoiling the plot, drawing audiences in.
3) The group chose "He is what he eats" based on focus group feedback that it relates well to the genre and film's narrative of a killer who eats victims.
Ideas for use of camera
This document discusses camera techniques used in horror film trailers and plans for a student film trailer.

Film trailer analysis 2
The trailer is for the 2016 psychological horror film Hush, directed by Mike Flanagan. It stars Kate Siegel as Maddie, a young deaf woman living alone in an isolated house in the woods. The trailer establishes the setting and Maddie's disability through text and imagery, creating an unsettling atmosphere. It then sets up the plot - an intruder is outside with the intent to kill Maddie. Due to her being deaf, she is reliant on visuals and has heightened senses of unease. The trailer uses the setting, lighting, sounds and lack of dialogue to reflect Maddie's vulnerability and build suspense for the killer's threat.

Poster overview
The document analyzes eight film posters from the horror genre to identify common features and conventions. It finds that most posters feature bold white text, red and black colors, images of the villain, and weapons to attract audiences without revealing too much of the plot. Common elements help link different media within the genre in a symbiotic relationship. For example, most posters feature the "final girl" character archetype through use of innocent white clothing and positioning closest to danger. Layout and design conventions also aim to guide the eye across the poster according to principles like the rule of thirds. Overall, the posters effectively promote films in the slasher genre while encouraging curiosity through limited revealing of the story.
Conventions of the slasher genre

It describes the tropes of the final girl, who is typically innocent and survives, and the first girl, who is promiscuous and dies first. It also outlines conventions for the villain's costume including masks, the signature weapon or prop they use, and how mass killings are used to create fear and suspense. Finally, it notes that slasher films commonly take place in isolated locations that trap the victims.
Focus group analysis
The focus group was conducted to determine what elements would attract the target horror film audience to a trailer, poster, and magazine cover. Key findings included that the audience preferred posters featuring the villain prominently with the weapon, a font resembling blood splatter, the tagline "He is what he eats", diegetic and foley sounds in the trailer, close-up shots of the villain's face on the magazine cover, a meat cleaver as the weapon, and a costume combining a mask and suit. These elements align with horror conventions and will be incorporated into the media pieces to appeal to the target group.

Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Evaluation question 5
- 2. COLOURSI ATTRACTED MY TARGET AUDIENCE THROUGH MY USE OF COLOURS AND CONTENT. THE COLOURS I HAVE USED HAVE ALL BEEN BRIGHT AND COLOURFUL AS THIS IS WHAT WOULD STAND OUT TO THE 8-13 YEAR OLDS. THIS IS A COMMON CONVENTION USED IN OTHER EXISTING POP MAGAZINES AS WELL. THE COLOURS I HAVE USED ARE SLIGHTLY MORE ATTRACTIVE TO THE FEMALE AUDIENCE BECAUSE THEY ARE MOSTLY ASSOCIATED WITH GIRLS. HOWEVER, I HAVE ALSO USED OTHER COLOURS SUCH AS DIFFERENT SHADES OF BLUE AND A RED SO IT IS NOT BIASED AND MALES COULD ALSO READ TOO.
- 3. CONTENT THE CONTENT I HAVE PLACED WITHIN THE MAGAZINE IS ALSO ATTRACTIVE TO THE 8-13 YEAR OLDS. THERE IS GOSSIP SECTIONS, INTERVIEWS, CONTESTS, PERSONALITY TESTS, FASHION ARTICLES AND LOTS MORE. THIS FITS IN WITH THIS SOCIAL GROUP BECAUSE THEY ARE YOUNG AND LIKE TO KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT THEMSELVES AND CELEBRITIES, THEY ALSO WANT TO LOOK COOL AND SO THE FASHION SECTION IS USEFUL TO THEM AND TO THEIR PARENTS FOR IDEAS FOR PRESENTS.
- 4. MODE OF ADDRESS ALSO I ADDRESSED MY TARGET AUDIENCE INFORMALLY DUE TO THEIR AGE. WHEN READING A MAGAZINE, THEY NEED TO BE ABLE TO RELATE TO IT AND FEEL COMFORTABLE READING IT BEFORE THEY THINK ABOUT BUYING IT AGAIN. SPEAKING TO THE TARGET AUDIENCE THE WAY I DID ENABLES A BOND TO BE CREATED BETWEEN THE READER AND THE MAGAZINE. AN EXAMPLE OF WHERE I HAVE USED THIS TECHNIQUE WOULD BE THE EDITORS NOT ON THE CONTENTS PAGE. AS I HAVE PREVIOUSLY STATED THIS ENABLES THEM TO FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH WHAT THEY ARE READING AND THEY WILL TRUST THAT IT IS THE TRUTH. SELF ACTUALISATION IS IMPERATIVE TO A TEENAGE GIRL BECAUSE SHE SEEKS APPROVAL FROM HER PEERS AND LOOKS TO INSPIRATIONAL FIGURES IN MUSIC AND CELEBRITY TO HELP ‘BETTER’ HERSELF PHYSICALLY AND EMOTIONALLY.
- 5. THEORY SELF ACTUALISATION IS IMPERATIVE TO A TEENAGE GIRL BECAUSE SHE SEEKS APPROVAL FROM HER PEERS AND LOOKS TO INSPIRATIONAL FIGURES IN MUSIC AND CELEBRITY TO HELP ‘BETTER’ HERSELF PHYSICALLY AND EMOTIONALLY.
- 6. THE FRONT COVERTHE AUDIENCE IS ATTRACTED TO MY MAGAZINE THROUGH THE FRONT COVER AS IT IS THE FIRST THING THEY SEE. THE BRIGHT COLOURS AND CRAMPED PAGE ENSURES THEM THAT THERE IS LOTS OF CONTENT THEY WILL WANT TO READ INSIDE THIS MAGAZINE. THE FACT THAT THE IMAGE OF THE BAND AS THE COVER STAR ARE THE ONES WHO HAVE THE INTERVIEW INSIDE THE MAGAZINE AND THE MAIN SELL LINE WILL ATTRACT THE TARGET AUDIENCE AS THEY ARE A POPULAR BAND WITH LOTS OF FANS. THERE IS LOTS OF THINGS THE TARGET AUDIENCE DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT THEM AND THEIR RECENT SPLIT AND SO THEY WILL WANT TO FIND OUT BY READING INSIDE THE MAGAZINE. THIS EFFECT IS ALSO GIVEN THROUGH THE USE OF THE SELL LINE, IT ALMOST INTRIGUES THE READER THAT MUCH THEY WANT TO OPEN IT AND READ IT WHEN THEY ARE IN THE SHOP.
- 7. MORE MODE OF ADDRESS THE MODE OF ADDRESS ON THE FRONT COVER WILL ALSO ATTRACT THE TARGET AUDIENCE AS IT SOUNDS LIKE IT IS THEIR FRIENDS WANTING TO TELL THEM A SECRET OR INVITE THEM INSIDE THE MAGAZINE. THIS IS USED TO TRY AND CREATE A BOND BETWEEN THE TARGET AUDIENCE AND THE MAGAZINE. THIS ALSO APPLIES FOR THE IMAGE USED, THE POSE INCLUDES A FRIENDLY POSITION AND INCLUDES SMILES FROM ALL OF THE ARTISTS ON THE PAGE, THE INDICATES TO THE AUDIENCE THAT WE ARE HAPPY TO SEE THEM AND ARE ENCOURAGING THEM TO BUY THE MAGAZINE.
- 8. FONTTHE FONT USED IS A SIMPLE YET ATTRACTIVE ONE TO THE TARGET AUDIENCES. ON THE COVER, I FOLLOWED THE CODES AND CONVENTIONS OF THE POP GENRE AND USED MORE THAN ONE FONT, THIS IS TO TRY AND STAND OUT AND ATTRACT MORE PEOPLE. THE MAIN SELL LINE IS BOLD WHICH IS COMMONLY SEEN IN PROFESSIONAL MAGAZINES USED TO STAND OUT.
- 9. LAYOUTTHE LAYOUT OF THE PAGE IS ALSO CRAMPED AND COLOURFUL FOR THIS REASON. ON THE FRONT COVER, I WAS ALSO PROMOTING THE POSTERS THAT ARE INSIDE THE MAGAZINE, THIS IS ANOTHER CONVENTION OF THE POP GENRE AS THE TARGET AUDIENCE WANTS TO PUT UP POSTERS OF HER FAVOURITE ARTISTS INSIDE HER ROOM.
