2. initial plans(1)
The document outlines Oscar Gibb's initial plans for a sports magazine project focused on football. It includes a mind map, mood board analysis, and schedule. The mood board shows a repetition of football themes and the colors red and white, which may reference the England flag. The magazine will follow the color schemes of team badges and kits. The schedule outlines 5 weeks of research, planning, production, and evaluation activities, including experimenting with layouts, creating the cover and double-page spread, and comparing the final product to professional football magazines.
Self Assessment
The self assessment form summarizes the strengths and weaknesses of a magazine pitch. For the pitch, strengths included providing detailed information on price, images and release times, while a weakness was not deciding on a name. For planning, strengths were being up-to-date and including all planning in a blog, while focusing on the target audience, but weaknesses included drafts that could have been more detailed. For the design, strengths were using a purple color that would appeal to different genders and an image that would attract the target audience.

Kian Devine's FMP diary documents their 9 weeks of pre-production, production, and evaluation for their FMP project. Over multiple weeks, Kian conducted research on existing games, focusing on art styles, color palettes, and genres to influence their own 8-bit style game. They created character designs, logo, and main menu screen. Production faced some challenges due to illness but Kian adapted by focusing on written work. Their evaluation compared planned and actual results, and could have been improved by discussing future improvements.
Use of story maps to increase rding comp
This document discusses story maps and how they can help increase reading comprehension. It explains that a story map is a graphic organizer that helps organize the key information from stories, similar to how a regular map shows where things are. The document then provides an example of a story map template that can be used for naming the story and author, identifying the setting, characters, problem, story events from the beginning, middle and end, and the solution. It states that story maps teach about important story elements like who, what, where, when, why and how. Instructions are given for an activity where students will use story maps to make predictions, identify elements, discuss how elements set up and resolve the problem, and relate themes to their own

The preliminary task taught the student basic skills in using Photoshop to design a magazine cover, including experimenting with fonts, colors, and editing images. For the actual task, the student enhanced their Photoshop skills by editing images more advancedly and creating unique text styles using effects like drop shadows. While the preliminary images were basic, the actual task images were improved by focusing on presentation and avoiding subjects wearing white on white backgrounds. Font usage also improved from just downloading fonts to editing texts to make them stand out more professionally with effects in the actual task magazine.

Rebirth
The document discusses the concept of being "born again" or born of the Spirit as described by Jesus. It says unless one is born of water and the Spirit, they cannot enter God's kingdom.

Several passages are cited that discuss how those born of God believe Jesus is the Christ/Son of God, love God and keep his commandments, and overcome the world through faith. Being born again creates a new creation in Christ and changes a person's lifestyle, empowering them to live by the Spirit rather than their sinful flesh.

They analyzed different genres and ensured their research covered a variety of sources and genres. The student also interviewed intended audience members to understand preferences. For planning, the student created ideas centered around adaptations differing from original works. They created an image board and considered audience appeal factors like colors and themes. However, they lacked similar existing products for inspiration. The student struggled with time management due to illness, and would have benefited from mock-ups and a schedule.

Natalie Bennett summarizes her process in creating a dubstep music magazine as part of a media project evaluation. She began by researching conventions in existing magazines and incorporated many of these such as using graffiti fonts popular in dubstep music. However, she made some adjustments like having a diagonal masthead to make it unique. Her target audience is teenagers ages 16-18 who listen to dubstep music.

Evaluationquestion5part1 whatresearchandplanningdidyoudoinordertocreateasucce...
I found through research and planning that looking at other magazines in the same genre helped me create one suitable for my target audience. Genre research showed R&B/Hip-Hop/Rap magazines have a mature, professional look with few smiles and primary colors that stand out. Textual analysis showed imagery is important, so I focused on skills and variety of photos. It also taught that sometimes less is more while including enough to engage readers. Researching costumes and props clarified the magazine's look and allowed informing models to prepare. Font research from DaFont.com provided options to choose the perfect one.

- Software such as Photoshop, Survey Monkey, Word, slide presentation tools, and blogger.com. The document discusses learning to use these various software programs.
- Websites for research, fonts, and self-publishing including Wikipedia, survey platforms, and blogger.com. Learning to navigate these sites and use their features was discussed.
How did you attract and address the audience
This document discusses how a music magazine attracts and addresses its target audience based on uses and gratification theory. It aims to fulfill the four reasons people consume media: knowledge, personal identity, entertainment, and feeling part of a group. The magazine provides new information on its cover, contents page, and articles to satisfy readers' desire for knowledge. Its informal style, interviews, and focus on both music and artists aim to entertain readers. Featuring popular chart artists makes readers feel part of the music-loving group.
Who would be the audience for your media
The target audience for the magazine would be teenagers aged 17-25, with a focus on 19 year old females. While males would also be an audience, the front cover image would attract different genders depending on who is featured.
