The document compares the author's preliminary school magazine project to their full portfolio magazine. For the school magazine, there was little planning, photos were taken on a phone in a single lesson, and it was created in Photoshop. The portfolio magazine involved extensive planning of photo shoots with different outfits, props, and locations. Over 400 photos were taken using advanced cameras. The magazine was created in InDesign, which the author found easier to use than Photoshop to make a professional, realistic magazine layout. Overall, the author gained valuable experience and skills in planning, photography, software use and designing for their target audience.

This document contains responses to evaluation questions about a music magazine portfolio project.
In response to how the audience was attracted, the creator used a cover model around the same age as the target audience. Unusual colors were also used on the cover to attract both males and females without representing a specific music genre. Large text and festival/artist descriptions on the cover would interest those who enjoy music festivals.
Learning photo editing software like Photoshop and page layout software like InDesign was challenging at first but improved the professional quality. Manipulating existing photos and creating custom page designs and backgrounds took practice.
Thorough research into magazine conventions helped plan genres and attract the target audience, unlike the preliminary task. Taking time on
Fmp proposal
Louis Joseph Harman proposes creating a magazine called "The TRIP Magazine" focused on BMX culture and style. The project will emphasize graphic design elements like typography, layout, and color using inspiration from designers Neville Brody and David Carson. Harman will produce the magazine using skills in InDesign, Photoshop, and illustration developed through previous projects. The magazine will include articles, interviews, and advertisements reflecting the 90s grunge aesthetic surrounding BMX. Harman will evaluate the project through self and peer reflections on the process, final product, and how well it achieves the goals of experimenting with conventions of design.

Question 7 powerpoint presentation
The document discusses the learning process for a student who created a grime music magazine as a class project. They learned that planning and preparation are essential, including researching the genre and getting feedback. Organizing their time was important, from initial research to taking photos to final production over 2-3 weeks. Photographic skills like location and lighting were key to make pictures stand out. Conventions like cover images were considered. Post-production skills in Photoshop and layout software helped make the final product look professional. The biggest lesson was learning to effectively use Photoshop to edit photos and make them stand out on pages.

Evaluation 7
Looking back at my preliminary task, I learned many new skills for creating a successful music magazine. I had to learn how to use an advanced camera and editing software like Photoshop and InDesign, which was challenging at first but I quickly gained proficiency. When putting together my magazine, I had to carefully plan it out and consider real magazine conventions to appeal to my target audience, such as including important details like pricing, dates and page numbers. Adapting conventions and ensuring my magazine was tailored to the genre and readers was important for it not to cause confusion.

Audience feedback
The document discusses feedback received on a music video from its intended audience. It notes that knowing the gender and age of the audience allowed the creator to tailor the video and marketing materials to those groups. Viewing data showed that music videos are commonly watched on YouTube, indicating that should be a distribution method.

Risk assessment
Vanessa Wanner is producing a film shoot that carries several risks including personal injury, health and safety issues, and equipment damage. The key risks include tripping over lighting wires, potential electrical fires from overheating lights, expensive equipment being damaged, and medical issues from crew members' health conditions.

Locations included London, Zambia, and a studio, with plans to film daily life and performances to capture people enjoying themselves across both cultures.

Conventions of a music video
This document discusses various conventions used in music videos. It describes common camera movements like pans, tilts, and tracks that usually follow the artist. Long shots are used to show locations while close-ups show emotions. Jump cuts and transitions like fades are frequent editing techniques.

An example is Katy Perry's "Roar" video where her costumes and facial expressions change to show her developing confidence. Props, lighting, sound, costumes, and color are also conventions that set moods and atmospheres.
Location recce
The document mentions several locations including a London graffiti skate park, Zambia, airports in London and South Africa, filming in the air, and Hyde Park.
Lyric narrative
The song "Beautiful" by Chris Brown promotes accepting and seeing the beauty in all people regardless of race, sexuality, or other attributes. The lyrics repeatedly state that "beautiful people" are everywhere and encourage listeners not to let others bring them down by insisting that their inner beauty is what matters most. The song uses repetition of positive messages and a upbeat musical style to lift listeners' mood and convince them of their own intrinsic worth.
