Various stylistic elements like different font styles and sizes were implemented to make certain elements like advertisements or editors picks stand out compared to the other text.
Step by step process of contents page
Deemple Morar created a contents page for a magazine called "Phoenix" in InDesign. They designed the page with three columns and added section headings like "Regular Contents", "Issue/Date", and "Featured Content" in the brand color scheme. Images and text were imported from Word and formatted to fit in the layout. Page numbers were added throughout to direct readers to the relevant pages. The final contents page was checked for errors before completion.

Page references are in varying large colors to help readers navigate while boxes draw attention.

Documentary process production
The documentary was created using Premiere Pro CS6 software. Clips and images were imported and organized, and the title sequence was created using precise cuts with the razor tool while zooming in for accuracy. Filters and effects like fading were added using techniques learned from YouTube to create contrast and drama. Audio was recorded separately and integrated by dragging tracks below the video clips. Photoshop was used to edit images, which were then inserted and sequenced in Premiere Pro. The razor and zoom tools helped structure the documentary by removing unnecessary parts and focusing the audience's attention on key elements.

Prodction of radio trailer
The document describes the process of creating a radio trailer by exporting video footage and an audio voiceover from documentary raw footage on a healthy eating theme. Editing tools like zoom and razor were used to cut the audio track into specific sentence segments to fit the script, and cut the footage to what was needed. All the edited audio and footage pieces were then dragged into place to assemble the radio trailer, transforming it from the raw materials.
Evaluation question 3
The document summarizes audience feedback from testing various promotional materials for a documentary about food and diets. 11 out of 12 people found the documentary informative and would recommend it. The documentary effectively used conventions like voiceovers, interviews, and archive footage. Most feedback was positive, praising the entertaining and realistic content. However, some suggested the archive material was distracting and interviews too long. Overall, the testing showed the documentary was well-received and effectively promoted its topic.
Radio advert
This radio advertisement promotes a television program about food and the body, highlighting that while many people desire a "perfect" body, achieving that ideal image shown on television shows is difficult and not everyone succeeds due to junk food temptations and obesity being a growing problem. The one-hour special aims to shed light on how food actually affects the body and what people's relationships are with different foods.
Script
Britain has high rates of overweight and obesity due to fast food and processed foods being widely available and promoted. As a result, people feel pressure to achieve certain body types from the media. Many now prefer quick, easy convenience foods over taking the time to cook fresh meals from basic ingredients like vegetables and meat. While fruits and vegetables provide important vitamins and minerals as healthy substitutes for meat, about half of British adults are overweight and nearly one-fifth are obese. Some supermarkets offer lower prices than competitors on store brand products. Eating fruits high in natural sugars like bananas or apples before working out can boost energy levels as a healthier sugar option compared to other sources. Fitness magazines now include specific meal plans and workout routines

Front cover publication 2
- 2. In order to create my front cover for my magazine, I used the software Photoshop as this allowed me to crop my front cover image to make it the right shape and size, by using the polygonal lasso tool to make it accurate.
- 3. This is the image I have taken fully cropped used for my front cover music magazine.
- 4. First of all on my front cover page for my magazine I had applied the masthead by using the text tool, which I named ‘RMUSic’ in the font Tahoma, size 165.16, and I also made it bold therefore it could stand out however, to make it stand out more I applied two effects on it called stroke and a drop shadow which makes my masthead bald. I used the colour red as it portrays the genre rock I am producing for my magazine.
- 5. To insert my dominant image, I had opened it from an other document which then I dragged into this page, resizing it by ‘control T’ which allowed me to make it the perfect shape and size.
- 6. I then applied the name of the name of the music artist for my front cover so I had used the same font of the masthead Tahoma and I also had made it bald, the size of font as 170.33pt to make it stand out. However, the name could not be as bald as the masthead so I did not apply any effects to it. Moreover I used the red again as this reflects the genre of him as an artist which is rock.
- 7. After I have inserted the coverlines which portrayed what is in the article.
- 8. I inserted two box which are yellow by using the shape box and changing the colour as this will make it stand out so the audience will most likely directly look at these parts of the magazines. I used the text box to insert this and using the shape tool to use for the small circles for my magazine.
- 9. Afterwards I applied ‘buzzword’ which makes my magazine stand out as it offers different things which could appeal to many buyers so I used the shape tool to create the circle, changed the colour to black to show contrast from the text as I used white and yellow. This makes it very effective as contrast will make my magazine bold and by using the rotation tool I tilt the text too. I added a simple text for the positioning statement below the masthead.
- 10. Lastly I added the barcode by creating it from a using the shape tool as I created a box firstly and inserted small little lines to make it look more realistic, by filling them into different thickness which applies to a real magazine. Then I added text above which contains my price, website, date and magazine logo.
- 11. Final production of my front cover
