The author produced a school magazine and a music magazine. They felt the music magazine was more professional looking and had better structure, presentation, and concept compared to the vague school magazine.

Overall, the author believes much more time and effort went into designing the music magazine, making it more conventional and appealing than the school magazine.
Title evaluation
The document describes the process of choosing a title for a school magazine. A survey was conducted asking subjects for title suggestions, including some of the author's ideas.

The first draft title design directly copies the front cover mock-up and uses the school's green and white colors. It takes the form of a banner for a unique look compared to other school magazines that simply use the school name. Shadow layers were added to the 3D title to make it stand out while still looking appealing.

Image analysis
This document analyzes and compares the effectiveness of different magazine covers. The first magazine cover appeals to parents with its picture of a happy mother and child, implying the school is a safe environment. However, the second magazine cover is criticized for having a faded background image that clashes with the text, making it difficult to read. The pictures are also clustered awkwardly. In contrast, the third magazine cover features a student in front of the title, creating an interesting layered effect that draws readers in. While a fourth sports magazine uses an inspiring professional cricket player, this may seem out of place for a school publication.

Roman White
Roman White is a renowned music video director who has worked with major artists like Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber. He is known for using certain shots and techniques across many of his videos. Some of his signatures include wide angle shots that make the audience feel immersed, close-up shots that convey emotion, and out-of-focus shots that focus to represent an artist finding clarity. He also often includes narrative storylines that relate to the lyrics, though this approach may not work for all songs. Roman directs in various genres and subtly hints at the genre through visual cues in the videos.
The social identity theory
Social identity theory proposes that people categorize themselves and others into social groups. People tend to favor the groups they belong to and view them more positively than other groups. Individuals aim to enhance their self-esteem through the groups they identify with. There are two belief systems for achieving this enhancement: social mobility, believing one can change groups to improve status, and social change, believing one must challenge the status quo by competing with higher status groups. Understanding social identity theory can help create more effective marketing like music videos by appealing to the social identities and groups of the target audience.
The social identity theory
Social identity theory proposes that people categorize themselves and others into social groups. People tend to favor the groups they belong to and view them more positively than other groups. Members of a group work to enhance the status and image of their group. There are two belief systems for improving one's social identity: social mobility, believing one can change groups to gain status; and social change, believing one must challenge the status quo since boundaries cannot be crossed. Understanding social identity theory can help create more effective music videos by appealing to the social identities and groups of the target audience.
Mulvey theory
Laura Mulvey developed the theory of the male gaze to describe how women are typically represented through a heterosexual male perspective as either virginally innocent or sexually active. Media often objectifies women to cater to the wants of most male audiences. Music videos in particular use exaggerated depictions of beautiful women to sell products by attracting male attention. Mulvey also suggests that the act of gazing gives the audience a sense of power over the subject.
Research into auxiliary products
An auxiliary product is a complimentary product like a poster or magazine article that promotes an artist's main product like an album. These auxiliary products are important for generating additional revenue and promoting the artist's brand to fans who want to show their support. The document examines album covers and a t-shirt from singer Taylor Swift's albums. It finds synergy between the products by using consistent title styling and imagery representing the country music genre. Emotions conveyed through facial expressions and cover designs are also noted as important in connecting with audiences. In conclusion, the research on these auxiliary products will inform the creation of a music video and packaging to accompany the author's own album.
Genre of music videos
Pop music videos focus on the artist and use changing backgrounds, green screens, and post-production effects. They tend to have bright colors and many camera shots/close-ups. Indie/rock videos are often black-and-white with dark locations and fast pacing to match the music. They use minimal effects and makeup for an edgy look. Hip hop videos feature lavish street parties with gangster clothing and promote brands/wealth. Country videos portray past times with orange/rose tones, guitars, and horses to reference the genre's origins.

The document describes modifying a bright background image for a magazine cover by using image editing software to decrease the background's intensity, making it less distracting. This was done by increasing the background image's transparency so the other magazine elements would stand out more clearly. Additional small circle images were then overlaid on the adjusted background to create a repeated pattern visible under the magazine's text and fonts.
Image editing... needs completing
The document outlines the stages the author went through to prepare an image for a magazine, including using the magic wand tool to remove most of the background, then erasing remaining bits to give a clean image, resulting in the final version used in the magazine.
Layouts for double page spread
I have formatted the interview page in several ways. In the first version, I placed the title at the top of the screen with the interview spanning both sides to maximize space usage. I included an image in the center to draw focus to the subject of the interview. In the second version, I placed the title and interview on one side with a larger artist image on the facing page to allow for potential poster use. However, I decided not to use this format as it appears less professional than spanning both pages.
Layouts for double page spread
I have formatted the interview page in several ways. In the first layout, I placed the interview title at the top of the page to identify it, and included the interview text on both sides to maximize space usage. I centered the featured artist's image in between to draw focus and indicate the topic. However, in the second layout I placed the title at the top and interview on just one side to allow a larger artist image on the next page and give the appearance of a more extensive interview. Ultimately, I chose not to use this second design because it seemed less professional and fitting for the magazine genre.
Representation
This document discusses how the author has clearly represented their work in producing a music magazine. They have included all key elements to represent their indie/rock genre magazine and have implemented techniques from current market magazines that fit this genre.
Image planning
I want to create images using effects like saturation and contrast in Fireworks to produce an image appropriate for publication. My images need to be bright and detailed to accurately convey the indie/rock theme and my interpretation. My shot will be a medium/close up of a male band member looking away from the camera to denote that he is proud of his success, looking cool, calm and collected with key features that give the target audience a feeling to remain with them.

House style
- 1. This is my colour scheme. I have used this because it looks fun and has bright colours. This will make the magazine stand out and seem fun to use. I think that this magazine will appeal to both my primary and secondary audiences, fitting the purpose of the magazine. These colours stand out in their own way, like most teenagers want to stand out. The colours match the house style of the school, which is good as the students will instantly recognise the magazine as their schools.
