Nathan evaluation q1
My magazine is based on the conventions of Kerrang magazine. The masthead, bold lettering on the front cover, and color scheme using red are similar to Kerrang to signal the metal genre. The contents page layout matches Kerrang by using photos at the top and listing contents at the bottom with a similar number of columns. A double page spread is also modeled after another magazine by featuring an interview with the person on one side and their Q&A on the other, though the colors for questions and answers are reversed. The magazine challenges conventions by using darker colors instead of Kerrang's bright yellow tone.
Double Page Spread Research

Evaluation
This document evaluates a student media project using forms and conventions of real media. It provides examples of how the student magazine's cover, contents page, and double page spread compare to conventions from NME and Kerrang magazines. For the cover, conventions like the masthead, selling line, and photos are used but in different placements than typical magazines. The contents page layout is based on NME but incorporates elements from Kerrang like smaller article photos. The double page spread takes inspiration from a Kerrang interview in its use of dark colors and placement of text, photos, and pull quotes.

Question 1
The document discusses how the media product challenges conventions of real magazines. It summarizes how each design element was inspired by or different from real magazines. Key elements like the masthead, cover image, sell lines, and backgrounds were inspired by magazines like NME but made unique through altered colors, fonts, and sizing. The double page spread directly replicated elements from Kerrang but changed details to fit the publication's theme. Overall, the document shows how the media product was inspired by real magazines but made distinctive through original design choices.
C&C CONTENT PAGE
The document describes the content pages of different magazines. It notes that:
1) Content pages generally have a white background with titles in the top left corner in varying font sizes and colors. Main images are featured in the center surrounded by organized text.

The document outlines the process of designing a poster over several iterations:
- The goal was to inspire writing for grades 6+ by showing it can be done in various modes, tools, and subjects.
- The first design used grayscale with floating background image and text in two sections.
- Subsequent designs experimented with color, formatting, alignment, images, and fonts to improve the overall design.
- The final design featured a centered layout with carefully edited text, a calligraphy pen image, and consistent colors, fonts, and style to encourage writing.
Question one
This document compares the student's magazine design project to conventions found in real media products like magazine covers, contents pages, and double page spreads.
The student's designs draw from conventions like minimalist layouts, placement of text and images, and use of fonts. However, the student also challenges conventions by using an unconventional plain background on the cover, limiting the contents page to one page, and laying text over the dominant image on double page spreads. Overall, the student aims to direct more attention to the subject through simpler designs while real magazines provide more context through more vibrant and crowded designs.
Double page spread analysis
The font used for the main headline is bold serif to make it stand out from the rest of the text. The color scheme uses a dark gradient effect to complement the magazine topic and dark image. The main image is on a separate page from the text for easier reading without distraction. The unconventional layout makes the magazine unique. The facial expression of the model in the mid-shot main image is psychotic to intrigue audiences about the accompanying text.
Drafting for the music magazine
The document provides details on drafting the front cover of a music magazine, including using a dominant main image, smaller insert images, text to highlight main articles, a large title, date in small font, prominently displayed reasonable price, and subtle but colorful design to make it eye catching.
Magazine Layout
The document describes the masthead and front cover design for a magazine called "Higher". The masthead title will be in jet black Broadway font at 125pt. The main cover photo will feature a model in front of a white wall to allow for editing. It will be converted to black and white and have its light and contrast enhanced. The dateline and selling line will be in Broadway and Georgia fonts respectively, providing the month and tagline "Your monthly happenings". The first two kickers will promote articles on getting good grades and a new school building in different colored fonts. The main kicker will focus on 6th form fashion trends in larger font sized.
Music magazine contents page
The document summarizes the layout, images, color scheme, and fonts used on the contents page of an NME music magazine. Key points include:
- The layout uses columns, a large central image, and consistent masthead to break up the text and guide the reader.
- Images include a large one promoting the cover story and a smaller one advertising another story.
- The color scheme and fonts match the magazine's house style for consistency across issues.

Analysis of professional double page spread presentation
This document analyzes the layout of a professional double-page spread in an music magazine. It identifies key design elements like the main image, columns, smaller images, bold titles, drop capitals, quotes, page numbers, and color schemes. These elements are used to guide the reader through the article, identify the subject, represent the genre, and draw in readers through visual interest. Common techniques between magazines like NME and Kerrang are also noted.
Billboard double page spread
The document analyzes a double-page Billboard magazine spread featuring Beyoncé. It uses headings and subheadings to provide information about the article. The majority of the font is white which stands out against the grey and pink background. The layout uses columns of text and a large dominant image of Beyoncé on the right to draw the audience in. Details like capitalized bold text at the beginning aim to capture attention.
Magazine progress
Dan Parkes created a magazine cover and double page spread for a class project. For the cover, he selected a dominant image and added a font for the masthead.

Parkes included images, text, and credits to tell the story. He later compared his designs to a professional magazine to analyze differences in layout, color schemes, use of images versus text, and other elements.
Q double page spread
Alicia Keys is featured in a double page article spread in Q magazine. A single large image of Alicia Keys is used to represent the article. Both the masthead and heading are present, with the heading positioned at the top in capital letters and the masthead in smaller text in the bottom left corner alongside the page number and date. The magazine employs a consistent house style of beginning articles with an enlarged first letter and placing the subject's first letter behind the text in red to follow the color of the masthead. Credit for the photographer is also discreetly given.

Double page spread/article research
This document discusses several double page spreads from music magazines as examples and inspiration for the student's own article layout. It analyzes the layout, colors, images and text used in spreads from magazines like NME and Q. The student likes how some spreads use simple color palettes and spill images over both pages. Overall, the spreads demonstrate conventions the student wants to incorporate like large central images, headline text and multiple columns to structure the article text.
4 DPS of my Own Choice
This double page spread has a very organized layout with information on one page and the main image on the other to make it easier for readers to focus. The font ranges throughout but the masthead is bold to attract readers. The mode of address is direct as the main image of Justin Bieber looks directly at the audience. There is an anchorage text box explaining the center image and text is wrapped around the image for easy reading. The setting appears plain to not distract from the image which features Justin Bieber known for his global fan base. The color palette is red, black and white.
Task 1d
The document discusses similarities across four pages from an issue of NME magazine. It notes that the same color scheme of red, black, and white is used throughout. The same fonts are also used for headlines, text, and page titles, creating consistency. Both the cover page and contents page feature the magazine's masthead "NME" at the top. The artist Dizee Rascal is mentioned on the cover, contents page, and a double page spread, as he is the main story of the issue. Mise en scene, or background elements, are kept minimal on all pages, featuring elements like tags, floors, and tour buses to link the pages together visually. Graffiti appears in the background of the cover
Asymmetry Rock Double Page Spread Comparison
The document analyzes and compares the layout, design elements, and style of two music magazine double page spreads - one created by the author and one from Kerrang magazine. Both spreads effectively engage readers with their headlines and use of images of the featured bands. However, the Kerrang spread uses more vibrant colors and additional photos to fill the page, while the author's spread includes more text. Both layouts are easy to follow with proportional spacing and formatting, but the author's includes larger text for easier reading compared to the dense content in Kerrang. The house styles are similar in terms of fonts and informal language, but differ in the author's simpler design using less color and images.
Media studies evaluation questions
1) The document discusses how the media product uses and develops conventions from real music magazines. It examines conventions used in the title, images, mise-en-scene, layout, colour, and other design elements.
2) It represents its target audience - a mainly young, male audience interested in indie rock music - through the imagery, language, and design choices used that portray attitudes of that social group.
3) The best media institution to distribute the magazine would be IPC Media due to its lack of music magazines and opportunity for a product focused on indie rock. Larger publishers also provide more resources for advertising.
Marinela Evaluation Q1
The document discusses magazine conventions and how the media product challenges or develops conventions. It provides examples of magazine conventions such as the masthead, cover lines, and contents page layout. For the masthead, conventions like placement, font and color are considered. While some conventions like structured contents pages are followed, others like wrapping text around an image on the contents page challenge conventions. Overall the document examines how the media product considers real magazine examples but also aims to challenge conventions in some areas.
Evaluation
The document discusses how the author's magazine, 'Beat', both conforms to and challenges conventions of magazine design. It conforms by including standard features like a masthead, cover lines, and lead image on the front cover as well as a contents page with features, page numbers, and editor's note. However, it challenges conventions by using the unconventional color orange on the front cover and a script font for the editor's note to make it seem handwritten. The author aimed to design an innovative magazine while still maintaining consistency through techniques like color schemes and fonts.
Q1
This document discusses how the media product challenges and develops conventions of real magazines.
It summarizes that the front cover uses exaggerated colors to stand out, while the contents page and double page spread use the same color scheme with less vibrancy to not overpower the text. Navigation is developed across pages by indicating the feature story on page 8. Continuity is developed by using the same fictional artist image on all pages at different sizes.
Some conventions are challenged, like including a subscription option on the contents page. The double page spread uses half the page for the main image rather than taking up the majority to suit an individual artist feature.

Evaluation Complete
My magazine represents different social groups through its coverage of artist Miss M. On the cover, she is portrayed seriously in black and white to represent her struggle to achieve fame. Within the article, she is pictured happily in color to show her success. This represents young women readers and shows Miss M as a strong, independent role model who overcame criticism to pursue her chosen genre. The magazine aims to empower its mainly female readership.
Evaluation Q1
My media product uses some conventions of real magazines but also challenges and develops some conventions. It follows conventions like using simple fonts, putting the magazine title and date/price in typical locations, including cover lines and using columns on the contents page. However, it also develops conventions by adding a colored bar behind the masthead and putting the barcode and cover lines in atypical locations. The layout challenges conventions by listing articles on the contents page without categories. Overall, it draws from real magazine conventions but also puts its own spin on some aspects of design and layout.
As evaluation question 1
The production challenges and conforms to conventions of real media in the following ways:
1. The masthead, images, and layout conform to magazine conventions but use unique fonts and effects to create a distinctive style.
2. Images of the artist are presented in unconventional ways, such as showing only half her face on the cover, to intrigue readers.
3. Pull quotes, headers, and sell lines follow conventions but use different fonts and effects to distinguish them and draw in readers.
4. The house style of bright colors challenges conventions which typically use black and red, but may not suit the intended mixed-gender audience.

1. The masthead, images, and layout conform to magazine conventions but use unique fonts and effects to create a distinctive style.
2. Images of the artist challenge conventions by using long shots and revealing half her face rather than close-ups, though facial expressions are used to create connections with readers.
3. Pull quotes, headers, and columned text conform to conventions to present information clearly while intriguing readers to learn more. Overall the magazine balances familiar magazine elements with distinctive artistic choices to engage audiences.
Evaluation of magazine task
The document describes the design choices Jessica made in creating a magazine mockup. For the front cover, she used serif fonts for the title and sans-serif for headlines to draw attention. On the contents page, she used different fonts and multiple images to draw readers to different stories. On the double page spread, she included a smaller offset image to focus on the interview text.
Q1 evaluation
My magazine uses many existing conventions of music magazines, such as the masthead, fonts, color scheme, and cover lines. However, it challenges some conventions by using a black and white photo on the cover instead of color, and by placing the main story line at the bottom of the cover instead of the top. The inside writing style is structured into clear columns, like other magazines, but the cover design challenges norms by its unique photographic style and layout.
Evaluation of my music magazine
This document discusses the design choices made for a music magazine called Feedback. It aimed to target young female rock music fans aged 16-24. Key design elements included using the colors red, white, and black; featuring a female-fronted band on the cover; and including edgy photographs of young people with Polaroid borders on a double page spread. The document also discusses using Wordpress to create a blog and Adobe Photoshop and Indesign for image editing and layout design. Representation in media is briefly touched on.
Presentation slides
The document provides feedback questions for a student magazine project asking about target audience, design choices, lessons learned using Adobe Photoshop and InDesign, and areas for improvement. It also includes examples of the student's magazine cover, contents page, and double page spread and asks how they link together and achieve the goals of drawing in the reader.
Q1 conventions evaluation
The document discusses various design elements used in the media product Muse Mag, including page numbers, masthead, cover lines, color scheme, photography style, and fonts. Page numbers, masthead, and cover lines are designed and formatted similarly to real magazines to make Muse Mag look realistic. A red, black, and white color scheme is used throughout for consistency and visual appeal. Photographs depict characters looking away from the camera for variety, though one direct gaze would have been better for the cover. Different fonts are used for subheadings and sections to clearly distinguish content and grab readers' attention in a way common to real magazines.
Q1 conventions evaluation
The document discusses various design elements used in the media product Muse Mag, including page numbers, masthead, cover lines, color scheme, photography style, and fonts. Page numbers, masthead, and cover lines are designed and formatted similarly to real magazines to make Muse Mag feel realistic. A red, black, and white color scheme is used throughout for consistency and visual appeal. Photographs depict characters looking away from the camera for variety, though one direct image on the cover may have engaged readers more. Different fonts are applied strategically to sections and headings to clearly distinguish content and guide the reader's eyes.
Q1
The document discusses how the media product uses and develops conventions of real magazines. It examines the front cover, contents page, and double page spread of the media product and compares them to conventions used in magazines like NME, Q, and Kerrang. Key conventions that are used and developed include the masthead, pull quotes, images, columns of text, and color schemes. The document aims to show how an understanding of real magazine conventions was applied while also developing the conventions to suit the intended audience and purpose of the media product.
Evaluation q1
The document discusses how the media product challenges conventions of real music magazines.
The front cover challenges conventions by having an unusual Christmas-themed masthead in green and red instead of the typical bold colors. The main headline is also in red on a background with many colors, challenging readability conventions but making it stand out.
The contents page challenges conventions by including a "Top Picks" section where magazine staff recommend articles, which magazines don't usually have. This section may not appeal to all readers who just want the standard contents listing.
The double page spread layout follows conventions but challenges them by including cut-out images without backgrounds, which could make the page look cluttered but allows the images to stand
Evaluation question one
This document discusses the typical conventions of magazine design and how the student's media product incorporates or challenges these conventions. It covers conventions for the cover, contents page, and double page spreads.
For the cover, it uses a masthead, partition color, main image, additional images, bold coverline, barcode, captions, and consistent color scheme similar to typical magazines. However, it displays information down both sides rather than just the left third, challenging conventions.
The contents page includes columns, images, page numbers, magazine name, date, editor's letter, and consistent colors. It also includes a competition not always seen.
The double page spread features multiple large images, direct eye contact, quotes, and

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

GraphSummit Singapore | The Art of the Possible with Graph - Q2 2024
Media evaliation question 1
- 2. FRONT COVERS: conventions that are the same/developed Masthead Masthead's are both red and white as it is an eye catching colour. Cover Image Both main cover image’s have eye contact as that is a convention of music magazines it also is to engage the reader. Font styles same font being used for cover lines as Q do on their front cover. This creates a pattern and consistency throughout. colour Both on a generic white/grey Background to keep things simple and not confuse the target audience.
- 3. FRONT COVERS: conventions that are the same/developed continued. Left side third • Both of these magazine heavily uses the convention of putting all of the cover lines in the left third and using the the main cover image to cover the other two thirds. Stickers • Both use a standard sticker although mine has a flick which is slightly unconventional Tag lines • Both use tag lines although instead of being in the logo like on Q it is still found in the masthead but in mine its found in the sticker
- 4. Front cover: challenges Style of dress Very new style of indie dressing with the flat cap and skinny jeans, in order to appeal to a younger target audience.
- 5. Contents page: conventions that are the same/developed Masthead Both use the biggest font on the page and clearly state what the page is about also using the same colour as logo Main and other images Both images are shot on location to create contrast and variety from the front cover and both contain a small number of images Colour scheme An easily recognizable colour scheme that is linked to the brand although I use three colour whereas Q only uses two
- 6. Contents page: conventions that are the same/developed continued Feature columns In my design, I decided that I would use the idea of creating lines through my contents page. Instead of making the left third completely text dominant I decided that I would split the contents the other way (top and bottom). I also decided I would’t use the generic list like box in order to make the page look more simple and easy to understand.
- 7. Contents page: Challenges Contents Page layout Having a small amount of stories as this is the first of two contents page allows me to use a different layout Black and white pictures It challenges it because conventions as it is perhaps more creative and also shows a risk as the picture has to be strong enough to stand out and also still be recognizable as an indie rock photo/artist. In this case they almost makes the main image stronger and adds to the effect that this contents page is quite alternative
- 8. Double page spread: Challenges Colour I used a much bolder and brighter use of colour in order to make the pages stand out. The red background also connects to the person in the article. This is a feature that doesn’t really occur that much in indie magazine.
- 9. Double Page spread : conventions that are the same/developed Headline Both have the biggest font on the page in order for the audience to know the subject matter Quotes A standered convention for a indie magazine although they are normally Both stand out implimented within well on the page the story this way it but mine uses a is more likely to much wider make the readers contrast in colour want to read the making the page article stand out further Main images
