indesign and magazine front cover
The document describes the process of creating a magazine layout in InDesign. It involves opening a new A4 document, adding a 4x4 grid, using rectangle frames to create boxes for images within the guides, editing and resizing images in Photoshop to fit the boxes, applying filters to the images, and placing the images in InDesign. One row of the page was left unfinished due to time constraints. The final section discusses a magazine cover created with dark colors, sharp text, and a contrast between soft and bold fonts to fit a rock genre.

The student created flat plans for the front cover and contents page with banners, logos, and placeholder images. Feedback noted the color scheme gave a professional look. For the final product, the student changed backgrounds to black and white with color logos and added a student reflection on the front cover not in the flat plan. The contents page matched the flat plan but added a photo of the school head to introduce the magazine. The student felt the final magazine was professional like others on the market.
Main cover and contents
This document evaluates a school magazine cover and contents page that the author created for a class assignment. The author analyzes strengths like using the school's colors and images of older students, but also identifies areas for improvement. For the next magazine cover, the author plans to use higher quality photos, a consistent color scheme, and additional design elements like straplines to make it more appealing and professional.
Preliminary task analysising.
Eddie Cameron analyzes the preliminary task of designing the front cover and contents page for a school magazine. For the front cover, he chose a simple design inspired by magazines and used the school colors of blue and white. A photo of a sixth form student was included to relate to an article about applying to sixth form. Straplines, stars, and rhetorical questions were used to engage readers. The contents page also featured the school colors and fonts for consistency. Articles were grouped by year and highlighted to help readers find relevant content. An editor's note and social media links were included to add authenticity and reach more students.

- The font used on the magazine cover is sans serif for the headline and block capitals for other text to attract readers.
- The layout follows the typical route of the eye from top to bottom and left to right with the headline, subtitles and image.
- The image used is of a smiling teenage student in school uniform to relate to the target audience.
Preliminary task
The document summarizes a student's work on creating a magazine for their school.
The student designed the front cover of the magazine titled "King's Sport" using red font to represent the school's status as a sports academy.
For the contents page, the student used the same font and colors as the front cover to create continuity. Important stories were written in bold and parts in red to draw attention. Photos were included to showcase school life.
In their evaluation, the student reflects that they could have added more color to the front cover and left space for a competition. They also feel the photos on the contents page were too long and they didn't properly plan space.

Revisiting my schedule
Sophie Canning revisits her schedule for her A2 media coursework. She created an optimistic schedule initially but has fallen behind on some tasks like designing her questionnaire. She updates her schedule by changing dates around and sees she has approximately 12 more tasks to complete along with her evaluation by her deadline of April 23rd, allowing enough time to finish her coursework.
Questionnaire, analysis and results on poster
Sophie Canning conducted a survey to help inform the design of a movie poster. The survey found that the target audience was primarily 15-24 year olds. It also found that the most popular horror movie posters featured the main character with direct eye contact. Respondents said color scheme, photos, and angles were important features. Specifically, black and red were called out as effective colors for horror posters. The survey also showed that posters influence the decision to see a movie. Finally, respondents preferred a bold, large font for the text on horror posters.
Construction of contents page
The document describes the process of designing the contents page for a magazine. Key details include:
- The title was created in Photoshop using different font colors against a black and white background.
- Small cover model photos were placed in a white third of the page to avoid overcrowding.
- Section titles were made italic and underlined in red to stand out.
- Subheadings and page numbers were added in grey to differentiate clearly against the black background.
Construction of front cover
The document describes the process of creating the front cover for a music magazine. Key elements included:
- Choosing a full-bleed cover photo of a singer to serve as the centerpiece.
- Creating a masthead using a font from dafont.com and editing it in Photoshop.

- Designing a logo using an online logo maker and importing it into Fireworks.
- Including additional elements like a barcode, issue details, and keeping a consistent color scheme of black and red throughout.
What are pugs and puffs on magazines
Pugs and puffs are short pieces of vital information placed on magazine covers. Pugs, located in the top corners, display the price, logo, and issue number to catch readers' eyes. Puffs are promotional stickers that make certain articles or contents stand out from the rest of the cover using shapes and text. They provide quick previews to entice readers and highlight articles inside the magazine.

Colour scheme
According to market research, most rock magazines use similar color schemes including black, white, red, and grey. The author analyzed these magazines and selected a color scheme of grey, black, white, and red for her own music magazine. She feels this color scheme, which takes conventions from other magazines, will be effective for drawing in readers.

Some potential names include "Home on Wheels", "Adventure Awaits", and "Wanderlust", which capture the spirit of travel and exploration that I hope this trailer will provide. In the end, I want a name that feels fun, inspiring and representative of the freedom and experiences it will bring.
Templates For My Magazine
Sophie Canning provides examples of templates she found online for different sections of her magazine, including the front cover, contents page, and double page spreads. For the front cover template, she likes that it features a large central image and will add the barcode to the bottom. She also provides an example contents page from a music magazine that she will adapt, which features a large image with text alongside. Finally, for her double page spread she details using a large image on the right with a quote and interview text filling most of the left page.

Mood Board For My trailer
This mood board document contains ideas for a character as well as potential locations and visual elements to set the scene. It was created by Sophie Canning and touches on key aspects to develop such as the protagonist, where events may take place, and how the setting should appear on screen or page.
Media questionaire
Sophie Canning conducted market research through an 11 question survey to inform the creation of a movie trailer for her A2 Media coursework. The survey found that the target audience was mostly female aged 18-24, who enjoyed romantic comedies but may be interested in a horror given their popularity. Respondents favored the use of suspense in horror films and were most likely to see trailers on YouTube and Facebook. Most participants watched 15 and U rated films and said trailers added to their understanding of films and influenced their choice of movie.

- 2. Images The use of images in my magazine is really important as I need to take relevant pictures that are linked into the text in the magazine. Here are some pictures of pupils and teachers around Idsall school, also a picture of the sports centre and the oak tee in the school logo.
- 3. Layout Here are two pictures of different layouts of magazines, that have given me some ideas. I prefer the layout of the magazine that is on the left, as there are relevant images taking up over half of the page and there is also a column of text, that is about what is inside the magazine.
- 4. Colour Scheme I will be mainly using the colour green in my magazine as Idsall schools main colour scheme is green in the logo and uniform. However I will also be using colours that compliment green such as grey and nude
- 5. font The type of font I use in my magazine is really important as I want the text to look nice, but at the same time it needs to be readable for the audience. With this in mind I think I will choose a sophisticated font like Calibri (body) rather than Edwardian script that looks like this .
