Music magazine genres
This document discusses different genres of music magazines and their styles. Rock magazines use dark, gloomy colors and focus niche articles on specific artists for dedicated genre fans. Classical magazines target older generations with subtle colors and promote well-known performers to attract readers. Chart magazines aim at young, music-oriented audiences with bright pinks and purples, simple language, and images of currently popular celebrity artists.
Deconstruction of a Q magazine front cover
The document discusses the design elements of a magazine cover, including the masthead in a familiar red color that catches readers' eyes, a selling line promoting the magazine's focus on great music in this issue, and a pull quote highlighting the main story to attract readers. An image of an artist is layered beneath the masthead and above a button to create extra depth and an illusion through the glasses in the photo. The color scheme of red, white, and black follows the conventional colors used for Q magazine covers.
Using adobe in design
By having to adjust to new software along side Photoshop I created a tutorial on the basics of InDesign.
Types of shots
The document discusses various composition techniques for photography including the rule of thirds, balance, leading lines, symmetry, viewpoint, background, depth, framing, cropping, and experimentation. The rule of thirds suggests positioning important elements along imaginary lines that divide the frame into thirds vertically and horizontally. Balance is important and the main subject should not be centered but offset, with another object included to fill the empty space. Leading lines can be used to guide the viewer's eye through the photo. Symmetry can make eye-catching compositions when unexpected. Viewpoint, background, depth, framing, and cropping are other techniques that impact the overall composition. Experimentation is encouraged to find effective compositions.
Things i should take into consideration when making my magazine
The document provides tips for designing magazine covers. It recommends establishing consistent guides, templates, and styles to build a strong visual identity over time. Advance planning is important, with consideration given to the cover's purpose, colors, and impact on readers. Inspiration can come from exploring other publications or taking breaks to relax the mind. Typography is key to drawing readers in through headlines, quotes, font choices and hierarchy that make important information easy to find.
Initial ideas – preliminary task
This draft shows initial ideas for a school-based magazine. The front cover will depict two students and a teacher working on a technology project at a workbench, constructing a rocket or melting materials. To signify their roles, the teacher will be dressed smartly with a "STAFF" lanyard and the students will have "STUDENT" lanyards. The draft also includes having small subheadings on the cover to promote the school or inform readers of recent events, with one example being "SALT SUCCESS".
My photoshoot
Rukayyah Robun took photos for the front cover of a school magazine. She directed two models to pose in the technology classroom to represent a technology lesson. In evaluating the shots, she found that lighting, focus, and positioning of the models needed improvement. The best shot featured the models collaborating with clear mise-en-scene elements that reinforced the school theme and popped with color from a flash.
My music magazine initial ideas
The document discusses initial ideas for a music magazine cover. It will target a mainly female audience over 25 years old and feature a female model on the cover. The model will have big, loose curled hair and dramatic smoky eyes makeup with red lips. She will have a natural facial expression with her lips slightly parted and her hand in contact with her face. The magazine cover will have a green or white background to avoid distractions. It will include numerical buttons down the left side with headlines like "20 year anniversary" and "FREE Q's top tracks."

The magazine features album and concert reviews rated on a 1-5 star scale. It also publishes a list of the best new releases each quarter. Q aims its content at older music buyers interested in CDs and uses close-up shots of artists on its covers to give a personal feel.

Maxine helped throughout by providing guidance on lighting to capture the full-body shots as needed for the cover images.
Regional identity representations in british tv drama
The document discusses regional identity in TV drama. It defines regional identity as the stereotypes used to represent different regions of England, such as the North being depicted as rough and the South as middle-class. It gives the example of the TV show Heartbeat, which portrayed Yorkshire using stereotypes like rural landscapes and old-fashioned values. Regional identity relies on stereotypes developed by London media companies and helps audiences interpret characters and settings.
Warp film & working titles films
This document discusses several British films produced by the film company Warp Films, including Dead Man's Shoes and '71. It provides background information on the production companies involved, release dates, budgets and distribution for each film. It also discusses how British indie films represent niche audiences in Britain compared to large Hollywood films. Finally, it examines additional British films The Theory of Everything and Paul in terms of their production and representation of British cinema.
Film language 3- Mis en scene
The document discusses several elements of mise-en-scène that are important in establishing the tone and style of opening film sequences, including lighting, color balance, costumes, makeup, set design, and acting. Specifically, it notes that lighting is crucial to make film replicate what the human eye sees and must be adjusted shot by shot. It also discusses how color balance, costumes, props, and makeup can be used to convey time periods, characters, and settings to immerse the audience. Set design aims to provide visual elements that support the narrative, while acting styles range from realistic portrayals to challenging Hollywood conventions.
Working titles and warp films
Working Title Films is a British film production company owned by Universal Studios that was founded in 1983 by Tim Bevan and Sarah Radclyffe and produces both feature films and television shows. As it is vertically integrated with Universal, Working Title's distribution and marketing costs are covered by the large film studio. Some notable Working Title films include Bean, Johnny English, Nanny McPhee, and Les Miserables. Warp Films is an independent UK-based film production company with offices in Sheffield, London, and Melbourne that has produced movies such as Dead Man's Shoes, This is England, Hush, and The Midnight Beast.
Film language 2
This document defines and provides examples of key concepts in film sound, including:
1) Diegetic sounds originate from visible or implied sources within the story world, while non-diegetic sounds come from outside the story.
2) Synchronous sounds match visible actions, while asynchronous sounds are indigenous but not precisely synchronized.
3) Parallel sounds fit a scene's genre or mood, whereas contrapuntal sounds create unexpected contrasts.
4) Ambient sounds establish locations, and sound bridges/motifs condition emotional responses to characters, settings or ideas.
Distribution.
The document discusses the distribution of the 2014 British film '71. It was produced with financing from several British film organizations. As a low-budget film, Warp Films benefited from technological convergence which allowed for cheaper production and easier distribution across multiple platforms. Their collaboration with Film4 on the distribution provided additional financial support to overcome challenges of their low budget. Vertical integration, where a company owns different parts of the production process, can help reduce costs but relying on outside vendors also has advantages depending on the situation.
Globalisation
Globalization is the process of international integration arising from the interchange of ideas, culture, and trade enabled by advances in transportation and communication infrastructure. Hollywood films dominate global box offices, representing over half of sales in major markets, suggesting a convergence of popular tastes internationally. However, globalization also presents new challenges to Hollywood's dominance. British cinema has arguably represented the political and economic impacts of globalization better than other national cinemas through films addressing issues like de-regulation, economic liberalization, migration, diaspora, and changing cultural identities in Britain. Independent British films have covered these topics despite limited industry support for distribution and promotion. Representations of ethnicity in British films often relate to pre-globalization immigration, while more recent
71'
As part of my AS media course we were to research low budget film companies and their production work. '71 is an example of 'Warp Film' , that I went to watch at the picture Ville cinema Bradford.
Semiology and media language
Semiology is the study of signs and sign processes. Media language refers to the codes and conventions used in various forms of media to convey meaning. This document appears to be about the relationship between semiology and how meaning is constructed and communicated through different media forms using established codes and systems of representation.
The theory of everything
The film The Theory of Everything tells the true story of renowned physicist Stephen Hawking and his relationship with his first wife, Jane Wilde Hawking. It depicts Hawking's diagnosis with ALS at a young age, how he overcame the disease and became one of the most famous scientists in the world, and the strain it put on his marriage to Jane. The film received critical acclaim for its performances by Eddie Redmayne as Hawking and Felicity Jones as Jane, with Redmayne winning an Oscar for his portrayal. It was a commercial success, earning over $125 million worldwide.
Eval ancillary
The document evaluates how effective the combination of a main film product and its ancillary promotional tasks of a film review and poster. It finds that the review and poster were able to give both a written and visual representation of the film's content and message through consistent use of color, images, and text between the products. Color was used prominently and intentionally to symbolize key themes like innocence and freedom. Images from the film in the review helped illustrate its style and genre, while the poster's staged photo followed conventions to intrigue viewers. Matching the title, font, and language between the products added familiarity and clarity that they referred to the same film.
Representation theory in film
Laura Mulvey developed the theory of the "Male Gaze" which argues that cinema is directed towards appealing to heterosexual men by over-sexualizing women. She identified three ways this occurs: how men view women, how women view other women, and how women view themselves. The document discusses how the characters Ellie and Sam in the short film "Promise" could be seen as subject to the Male Gaze by portraying the female character as beautiful until the end in order to not make audiences uncomfortable.
Narrative and Audience theory
The document discusses several theories of narrative and audience in film. It describes Claude Levi-Strauss's theory of binary oppositions driving conflict and resolution in narratives. It also outlines Vladimir Propp's 7 main character types that often appear in stories. Finally, it discusses Tzvetan Todorov's 5 stages of narrative structure and how these theories apply to analyzing the short film "PROMISE".
Theories on film genre
John Fiske and John Hartley discussed how genre acts as a convenience for audiences to categorize films based on established conventions. However, David Buckingham believed genres are constantly changing based on societal influences. Barry Keith Grant argued that while there are broad genres, more specific subgenres take over in defining a film's content and conventions. Rick Altman's genre theory proposed that genres provide audiences with semantic pleasures through obvious signifiers, and syntactic pleasures through less obvious themes and moods portrayed through elements like color and tone.
Deconstruction of review
This document summarizes a short film review that was designed to look like a magazine article. It uses conventions from real media products like having a dominant central image, column structure for text, and key details box. The review analyzes how the characters in the film represent emotional and medical cures for the main character's illness. It also examines deeper metaphors and aims to look past mainstream approaches by deconstructing raw messages in the plot.
Gender
This document summarizes a presentation about gender representation in media. It discusses how gender is a social construct that influences behavior and is portrayed through stereotypes. While gender roles are becoming less defined, media still relies on traditional stereotypes such as women primarily depicted as housewives or in domestic/beauty product ads, and men shown as independent breadwinners engaged in stereotypically masculine activities and products. The document calls for media to break from these stereotypes by representing women and men in more complex, non-gendered ways.
Pre production
Titles and sound balancing are important aspects of pre-production. Dynamic titles created in software like After Effects or Photoshop can help set the mood, while balanced audio connections are needed for high-quality sound recording. Low-budget films can use hand-drawn or printed titles. Credits should thank all contributors and appear long enough to be read. Non-diegetic sounds like music are added in post-production for effect rather than being part of the story world. Foley artists record replacement sounds in a studio, while voiceovers can narrate or be added during ADR. Music establishes themes and mood depending on the film's genre and budget.
Actor shoot plan 6
Richard Scott has scenes scheduled to film in the park on Wednesday March 18th from 15:15-16:30 PM. He needs to bring casual clothes and a highlighted copy of the script and should wear his own makeup due to added lighting which could cause reactions or uneven skin tone on camera. Contact information is provided for Emily and Kayyah.

Designing an effective title
This document analyzes titles from romantic drama films to inform the design of a short film title. It discusses three films - The Fault in Our Stars, Endless Love, and My Sister's Keeper. All three titles use a light blue background or font color, which symbolizes innocence, freedom, and teenage love. The Fault in Our Stars and My Sister's Keeper also use a handwritten-style font to suggest a narrative told from a child's perspective. Endless Love uses a simple typed font that draws attention to the words. Based on these analyses, the author decides their short film title will also use a blue color scheme and a more handwritten font.
Evaluation
The student learned about the importance of understanding their target audience through making a short film. They conducted questionnaires with 50 people in their target demographic to determine preferences around length, content, and platform. They also interviewed people to get feedback on the script and plot. After the film premiere, they surveyed attendees and found the film was successful in meeting expectations revealed in the pre-production research, such as having a relatable female protagonist. Conducting research helped the student design the film poster and review to appeal to their target audience.
Audience research questionnaire results
The document summarizes the results of a questionnaire given to the intended audience for a short film. It found that the majority of respondents were female aged 16-18 and in education. Most preferred watching romance genres for 6-7 minutes online. The filmmakers will aim to target this audience by featuring a strong female protagonist and including a positive ending, while exploring typical conventions of portraying gender roles in film.
Results from film review interviews
95% of interviewees recognized the film review format based on its layout. Younger audiences found the review "perfectly composed" while older audiences saw it as "sophisticated". Most interviewees said the large, striking images were the strongest feature while a few cited the critical perspectives. The majority said the images made them interested in seeing those scenes. While a few younger viewers found the text slightly excessive, 92% felt there was the right amount. The only suggested improvement was making some elements bigger and bolder.

storyboarding
Storyboarding began with Leonardo da Vinci but became widely used in the 1920s with the rise of animated films. Walt Disney further popularized storyboarding in 1929 when making Steamboat Willie. By the 1940s, storyboarding was also used for live-action films. Today, storyboarding is still commonly used in animation due to technological advances allowing for detailed scenes. Storyboarding has also expanded beyond film into other industries like marketing, fashion, and business for online and print promotions. While technology will continue to change storyboarding presentation, it will remain a vital planning tool for visualizing events on camera from start to finish.
