Feedback alterations
The document discusses changes made to a magazine cover design based on feedback. The key changes include changing the drop shadow color on a layer from red to black for a cleaner look, realigning text to be properly spaced from edges, changing fonts for better organization, and dropping the font size on one text element for better balance. The document reflects on how these changes based on feedback have improved the professional and organized appearance of the magazine cover design.
Masthead font design main task
Joe Dolan is designing the masthead font for a magazine cover and is considering four options: Myriad Pro, Bebas, BankGothicLTBT, and XXL. Myriad Pro is tall and effective in all capitals like XXL, but may not be bold enough. Bebas is very bold like XXL but may be too stretched out. BankGothicLTBT could fill the space but is distorted and unlike XXL. Joe ultimately chooses Myriad Pro as it is clear, tall, and represents capitals effectively like XXL while filling the space at the top of the page.
Double Page Spread Breakdown
This double page spread from Q magazine features an article about artist Nicki Minaj. There is a nice balance between the large central image and blocks of text. The text is clearly laid out around the picture without looking overloaded. Key sections are highlighted in bold to draw the reader's attention. While there is a lot of text, the central image helps break it up and makes it less overwhelming to read. The simple monochrome color scheme allows the small bursts of color in the image to stand out dramatically. Overall the layout creates an appealing and readable design that reflects Minaj's bold style.

This document summarizes the process of developing a magazine front cover and contents page from initial designs through multiple revisions. The creator tried different layouts, colors, images and text styles before settling on a design with the title across the full page, a large central image, and cover lines spread across below. They also improved the contents page by expanding the featured article section and adding a subscribe prompt. Overall, the document shows an iterative design process aimed at creating a professional and reader-friendly magazine format.
Peer feed back
The document contains 3 peer reviews of layout designs for a fanzine. The first review prefers the second layout for its balanced flow of copy and imagery. The second review favors the third layout because it resembles an actual tabloid layout with advertisements, headers, and a central story. The third review likes the first layout best for its easy to read color scheme and images that will attract the intended audience.
Construction of the front cover
The document summarizes the steps taken to design the front cover of a magazine. The designer started with a main image and resized and positioned it. A masthead was added in a black font inside an outlined box on top of the image. Based on survey results indicating a preference for bright colors, a blue box was added around the masthead and the font was changed. Coverlines were added in blue and other colors to maintain consistency. Backgrounds were added to coverlines to brighten the page using orange and yellow fitting with the summer edition. A blue footer was added for pricing. More images and shapes were placed at the bottom to make it less bare as surveys indicated a preference for more images. The barcode was resized and pricing
Question 4
The document discusses research conducted to define the target audience for a magazine. It involved creating an audience profile through surveys that showed the target audience was primarily 16-24 year olds. Additional research with this age group found that they preferred bolder colors like red, black, brown and purple be used in the magazine. Focus groups provided positive feedback on the cover design, contents page layout, and double page spread sample, affirming color choices and easy readability. This research helped tailor the magazine's design and content to best appeal to the intended younger audience.
Evaluation

Sample Images for construction
The document discusses photographs taken for the contents page and spreads of a magazine. The photos are of a model wearing a dark black dress with mesh inserts and glitter in her hair and on her lips, meant to portray a fun, wild personality that breaks conventions. The magazine is aimed at young, independent women who enjoy their youth. While the cover photo has a different personality, interior photos show laughter and partying to represent the fun lifestyle of the target audience. Additional photos from concerts and festivals are also discussed as relevant to the music-focused magazine and personalities featured within.
Evaluation Question 4
The document discusses research conducted to define the target audience for a magazine about electronic music. The research found that the primary audience would be teenage boys and girls who enjoy electronic music genres like house and trance. They are interested in content about music festivals, concerts, product reviews and artist interviews. In their spare time, the target audience enjoys gaming, watching TV, attending live music events, and going to the cinema. They typically listen to music using YouTube, CDs and Spotify, indicating they use both online and offline platforms.
4) Who would be the audience for your media product?
The target audience for the media product "Bootleg" magazine are 18-20 year old students who enjoy popular culture and social media. They have a strong interest in dance music genres like house, garage and grime. The audience wants to discover new artists, learn about music trends, fashion, and events related to electronic dance music culture. While most readers will be from the UK where these genres are popular, there is potential to market the magazine to a growing dance music audience in the US as well. The target readers typically fall into C1, C2, D, and E social classes as students or working class individuals.
Question 7
The student summarizes the key differences between their preliminary college magazine cover and their developed music magazine cover. For the college magazine, the text layout was misaligned and unclear, and the image was poorly cut out. In contrast, the music magazine had neatly right-aligned text, a more professional-looking masthead, an effectively photographed model representing the genre, and overall greater development to appeal to the target audience. The student learned to pay closer attention to text layout, imagery, and properly representing the intended social group.
Question 1
The document discusses the conventions used and challenged in a media magazine product. It summarizes that the magazine mostly conforms to conventions seen in other magazines through its layout, masthead positioning, use of coverlines and consistent camera shots of models making eye contact. However, some conventions are challenged through a simplified contents page that lists only key pages rather than being overly busy, and a double page spread that dedicates both pages to a full interview alongside images rather than splitting content across pages. The goal is to provide the reader with a crisp, easy to navigate product that still includes important information.
Front cover construction screen shots
The document discusses editing a magazine cover image using various Photoshop tools. These tools include the color select tool, levels tool, spot healing tool, blur tool, eraser tool, dodge and burn tool to emphasize shadows and highlights, remove blemishes, blur parts of the image, erase the background, and adjust brightness and darkness. Issues addressed include fitting a barcode where ideally wanted and improving the background erasure.
Evaluation question 7
The document discusses what the author has learned through completing a preliminary task and full production project. For InDesign, the author learned how to set up columns and bleeds/margins and manipulate text. With Photoshop, the author gained experience changing image size and resolution. For Blogger, the author picked up skills like embedding files and setting up labels. The author also learned about medium close-ups and direct gazes in photography as well as how to create a flat plan, though found designs can change from the original plan.
Evaluation question 2
The media product represents hip hop stereotypes by featuring a Nigerian female model on the cover, following trends in the genre. The images convey messages of power, strength, and independence through the model's confident pose and facial expression. The clean, mellow design and colors of the magazine cover suggest it will appeal more to middle-class readers, as lower-class focused magazines typically use brighter colors and include celebrity gossip.
Photoshop sd
The document discusses various Photoshop skills used in creating a music magazine, including using the burn tool to darken areas like lens flares, the dodge tool to brighten elements and make them stand out, and the magic wand tool to remove white backgrounds by selecting and deleting areas. It also mentions using layers to enhance different elements of an image separately without affecting other parts.
Focus group
1. The document describes a focus group that provided feedback on a music magazine product. Participants offered opinions on the cover design, layout, and content.
2. They generally liked the bold cover design with catchy headlines and images. For content, they preferred a mix of images and text in articles. The double page spread layout with a large central image was also well received.
3. Some suggestions for improvement included adding more color to the contents page and varying the images used. The creator found the focus group validated their design choices while also identifying ways to further enhance the magazine.
How did i attract my audience
The document discusses how conventions and uses and gratification theory were used to attract the intended audience. Conventions like the masthead, coverlines, and images were implemented because they are accepted standards. Uses and gratification theory also guided choices, such as using identity, surveillance, entertainment, and social solidarity. Specifically, the magazine cover features a unique masthead, an image of a model with a skateboard to relate to the audience's interests, and coverlines about music hits and entertainment. By addressing these psychological and social needs, the magazine aims to attract passing readers.

As reflection
The student created three designs for a magazine: a front cover, contents page, and double page spread. They felt the double page spread was most successful because it took more inspiration from other magazines. Both the front cover and contents page had color schemes that diminished the designs by making elements blend together too much. Overall, the student learned that they need to pay closer attention to color contrast, consistency of design elements across pages, and including more images and details in their work. They plan to apply these lessons to improve their magazine design skills for the upcoming year.

The document summarizes changes made to a website based on feedback. The key changes include correcting an actor's name, reducing text size, changing a background picture, moving social buttons to the bottom right, changing the style of social buttons to appeal to teenage girls, decreasing text size and moving it down, and moving "Coming Soon" text down the page. Feedback indicated keeping one page plain was effective.
Front cover print screens
The document describes changes made to the design of a magazine cover. Originally, the main image was centered with the masthead large at the top. Cover lines and additional information were on the left side. The author decided to move the masthead to the top left, make the magazine title larger, change a text box on the bottom right to advertise posters, and add more images and text to make the cover look fuller. The final design included cover lines, barcode, issue number and price on the left with clearer, more colorful text to stand out amongst other elements.

Definition of music video
A music video is a short film that accompanies and promotes a piece of music. Music videos come in a variety of styles from live performances to animation and conceptual approaches. Researchers have identified common elements of music videos including a relationship between the lyrics/music and visuals, reference to genres through style and iconography, close-ups of artists, and intertextual references. Key genres identified are performance-based, documentary-style, effects-driven, dance-focused, and blended performance/visual approaches. Basic video structures include performance, narrative, and conceptual styles.
Recce checklist 1
The document lists items needed for a photography trip to Norwich Riverside including a phone, tripod, camera, notepad, beer, toilet, food and drink. Essential photography equipment is noted along with necessary provisions.
Music Analysis
The document discusses different elements of video production including lighting, camera shots, mise-en-scene, and narrative. It analyzes how the use of cool lighting tones and fast editing keep the audience engaged in an unexplained narrative. Close-up shots of the model are interesting because music videos often focus directly on the celebrity. Shots where the subject completely fills the frame direct attention to them and can convey feelings of helplessness. Long shots are used to set the atmosphere and environment for the music video.
Beyonce
Beyonce's music video for "Jealous" effectively uses visuals that directly relate to the song's lyrics, like showing her throwing a glass when the lyrics mention breaking a glass. This draws out more emotion from the powerful song. Beyonce is also very skilled at acting and conveying realism and raw emotion in her videos, which engages audiences and makes the narratives feel realistic. Technical elements like lighting, camera angles, and sound design help set the mood and tone for understanding the video as a narrative piece.

Presentation1
The document outlines 4 potential black outfits and 4 more colorful, bold outfits for a music video that are intended to match specific points in the song lyrics and help tell a narrative. The black outfits are described as grungy and risky to create drama, while the colorful outfits add pop and craziness during a musical drop to shift the atmosphere. Most of the outfits are planned to be used where possible in the video.
What is a music video
A music video is a short film or video that accompanies a piece of music, primarily created to promote music sales but sometimes for artistic purposes alone. Music videos became popular in the 1980s through MTV but originated earlier. They come in many styles including animation, live filming, documentaries, narratives, and non-narratives using various film techniques and approaches singly or blended together. Some videos simply reflect a live performance of the song without a set concept. Common music video styles are performance, narrative, mixed performance and narrative, cameo appearances, animation, and parody.

Question 1
The document discusses the conventions used and challenged in a media magazine product. It summarizes that the magazine mostly conforms to conventions seen in other magazines through its layout, masthead positioning, use of coverlines and consistent camera shots of models making eye contact. However, some conventions are challenged through a simplified contents page that lists only key pages rather than being overly busy, and a double page spread that dedicates both pages to a full interview alongside images rather than splitting content across pages. The goal is to provide the reader with a crisp, easy to navigate product that still includes important information.
Question 7
The author summarizes the key differences between their preliminary college magazine cover and their developed music magazine cover. For the college magazine, the text layout was misaligned and unclear, and the image was poorly incorporated. In contrast, the music magazine had neatly right-aligned text, a more professional-looking masthead, an intentionally photographed image representing the genre, and a model pose depicting a musician. Overall, the author learned to better represent the target audience and make the design look more polished and like existing media examples in their developed music magazine cover compared to the preliminary college magazine cover.
AS Media Sample Images
The document discusses photographs the author has taken for a magazine they are creating. The photos are of a model wearing a dark dress with glitter in her hair and on her lips, meant to portray a wild, fun personality that breaks conventions. The magazine is aimed at young, independent women who enjoy partying. Additional photos from concerts and festivals are also discussed to represent the lifestyle of the target audience.
Hot desking changes
The document discusses edits made to a magazine front cover design based on feedback. Changes included replacing a bubbly red drop shadow with a cleaner black one, realigning text to be properly spaced from edges and each other, changing fonts for consistency, and reducing the size of one text element that was overwhelming. The edits improved the professionalism, organization, and balance of the design.

Hot desking changes
- 1. Vs
- 2. Taking advice from my “hot-desking” feedback, I have decided to change the drop shadow on my ‘Jade Lou’ layer on Photoshop from a bubbly red to a standard, clean cut black. After making these changes I have realised how much more professional and neat it looks. I still think the use of the drop shadow is effective because it adds dimension, however, I now realise that the pink was completely overwhelming and slightly childish looking. I have also realigned the text to ensure that it wasn’t squashed against the edge of the paper which I now think looks a lot better realigned than it did previously. For this part of my front cover, I have edited the ‘350’ text to make sure it was properly aligned with ‘page of pure music bliss’ text; as originally it didn’t sit properly. I had also jumbled too many typefaces up in order to create an effect which actually had looked a little too confusing. Taking this from my feedback, I changed all of the fronts to ‘Mangal’, except for the number which is in ‘Times New Roman’, because it brings organisation back to the front cover. I have also realigned it as well to keep that distance.
- 3. Not only have I realigned the text to make it look neater and to leave a gap between itself and the edge of the paper, I have dropped the text size down on ‘upcoming collabs’ from 18 to 16 so that it doesn’t look so overpowering. I think doing this has restored some order back to my front cover and has balanced out the size difference. I intended to use a bigger size font for this part of my magazine as I wanted it to stand out, but I think it looks much more effective being this size than it did being size 18 which was far too big for the rest of the elements on my front cover. Similarly to what I have done with the text on the rest of my front cover, I have realigned the text on the left hand side to “Right alignment” so that the distance between the edge of the page and the text is a clear line. This makes it look much more organized and neat, as well as keeping the distance equal. I am really grateful that this criticism was given, as I don’t think it could look much better now.
