Evaluation question 1
This document analyzes the ways in which the media product uses conventions of real music magazines. It discusses several common conventions including the masthead, sell line, images, anchor text, features, pull quotes, flashes, numbering, columns, and layout. For each convention, examples are provided from magazines like Q, NME, Kerrang, and Rolling Stone to illustrate how the media product incorporates standard industry forms.
1st Magazine Analysis
The magazine cover uses a long shot image showing multiple artists in coordinated poses to clearly indicate the hip hop/rap genre without needing text. Short, impactful phrases are used throughout to concisely convey key information like the coverline "DEF JAM 25" and selling line "HIP-HOP ON A HIGHER LEVEL". Color and font choices help elements like the masthead and coverline stand out against the white background.

It discusses adjustments to the front cover including changing the artist shot from long to medium and having the artist fold their arms by the masthead. It also describes making the masthead stand out more with red lines. Changes to the contents page included adding an issue number in a red circle and making the page headings red. For a double page spread, questions were highlighted in red, spacing was added between questions and answers, and the artist's name was made to stand out with a red line.

1st Magazine Analysis
This magazine cover analysis discusses the design elements of a music magazine called "XXL". The masthead uses a sans-serif font with the "L" covered by a model's head. There are multiple models on the cover image giving different poses to indicate the genre. Key information like the price, date, and website are included in the barcode with different fonts and sizes used. The single large coverline "DEF JAM 25" clearly indicates the topic about hip hop music turning 25 years old. Short catchphrases are used throughout to concisely describe the contents.

In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

Front cover week 2
- 1. FRONT COVER WEEK 2
- 2. After peer feedback from a follow student I was advised to remove the background from the barcode to make it more professional.
- 3. When given peer feedback from a year 13 student, I was advised to make most fonts the same to make the page flow better. It made my cover look more realistic and similar of the rap genre.
- 4. Furthermore I was advised to move the pull out quote to the left third as it was less visible in the top right corner. Also I decided to add a skyline of “association with sbtv” which is a popular channel which shows rap and grime songs therefore making it more relatable tot the target audience.
- 5. I then changed the positioning of the cover lines and changed the colour and stroke of the text in order to make the centre of visual interest more dominant.
- 6. After this I changed the text under the mast head to make it fit better and to allow the image to be slight enlarged.
- 7. From feedback from the teacher I was recommend to make the anchorage text bigger as it is important for this to be dominant on this page.
- 8. • I then changed the colour of the anchorage text and made the stoke smaller so it was more dominant.
- 9. I added further text of other similar groups of artists to my magazine to interest the reader more an make it more attractable.
- 10. I added more text to the left third of the page, by adding a cover line about American artists it allows more genre hybridization and shows that it can appeal to more of a target market.
- 11. I added a red line under this text to emphasise the word truth to tell the customers that this magazine is reliable.
- 12. I changed same of the fonts to be the same to make it look more slick.
- 13. From feedback from the teacher and in order to make my magazine like my partners I made the mast head bigger and more dominant as the same as the other magazine.
- 14. I then moved the cover lines down so it was more in proportion
- 15. Finally I moved the skyline to the edge and in line to improve the magazine aesthetically.
