This document analyzes the media product's use of conventions from real magazines.
The cover uses conventions like the masthead, cover line, and barcode. Images follow conventions like mid shots and neutral expressions.
Inside pages use columns, headings, and numbering for easy navigation. The double page spread has a large leading image on one page and text on the other.
Some conventions are challenged, like softer colors replacing the typical red/black scheme. An interview format on the double page spread is also less common.
Overall, the media product draws from real magazine conventions but also develops them in new ways to be unique and appeal to its target audience.
Question 7
The document discusses the differences between the preliminary and final tasks of creating a magazine. For the final task, the author conducted target research to identify the target audience and genre, which helped determine the magazine's content and style. Additional planning and elements were required for the final magazine, including a magazine plan, photo plan, style sheet, and double page article tailored to the target audience. This level of audience research, planning, and customized content was not needed for the preliminary task.
Evaluation question 7
1) The student learned the importance of in-depth audience research and feedback when developing their music magazine from their preliminary task to the final project.
2) They learned about properly capturing the tone and style of the magazine through the photo shoot, like ensuring the models' clothing matched the genre.
3) Planning and drafting was more important for the final project, including a complete contents page that engaged readers through additional details and features typically found in magazines.
Evaluation Question 7
From their preliminary task, the student learned several skills that improved their final production. They learned how to properly use a camera to capture higher quality images, how to effectively edit photos in Photoshop, and how to plan shoots through researching techniques like lighting and composition. For their final production, the student incorporated more research into codes, conventions, and their target audience, which helped them create layouts, designs, and writing styles that would appeal more to readers. Key areas of improvement included developing a more relevant masthead, implementing more organized page layouts, and producing images and writing that better represented their magazine's intended style and audience.

My front cover analysis has taught me conventions like large central images, prominent coverlines and mastheads that capture the audience's attention. It's common to show artists making eye contact with readers to form a connection. Bright colors also draw the eye. I aim to apply these lessons to my own music magazine cover. My contents page analysis showed that including images, page references and graphics makes the page look realistic. Descriptive feature details intrigue readers. I will separate features with lines and use a consistent color scheme. Analyzing double page spreads revealed conventions like large central images and bold text I should replicate. However, I will depict artists in a unique calm setting rather than with genre props. Black and white images relate to my target audience

Jeff kindleysides interview
The designer explains that to design effectively for a target audience, extensive research is needed to understand their world, interests, and what is new and interesting to them. Mood boards are created incorporating style elements to start the design process. Every aspect of the design must connect with the target consumer to establish a unique identity and viewpoint. Both text and imagery need to be carefully balanced throughout the publication to engage readers. Navigation and color choices are also important design elements to consider. The most important thing is to accurately project the tone and point of view to create a consistent and trustworthy personality that will develop loyalty among readers.

Users and gratifications theory
This document discusses Blumler and Katz's uses and gratifications theory from 1974. The theory proposes that individuals consume mass media to fulfill four core needs: diversion, personal relationships, personal identity, and surveillance. Diversion refers to escapism and stress relief. Personal relationships involve forming social bonds. Personal identity is defining oneself through reflected preferences. Surveillance means gaining knowledge about current affairs.

The first contents page is mostly empty while the second features anchored images and articles in an attractive yet understated design suited to the audience.

Personal learning and reflection
- 2. Reflection on Front Cover Analysis • My analysis of front covers has taught me a lot about how to produce my own front cover, for example I now know that bright colours against a contrasting background are a necessity to attract consumers. In addition I will be using particular props in my photo shoot to convey the right things about my featured artist in relation to the nature of the rap and hip-hop industries. I will also use a bright costume on the central image to ensure that this is the focus of a potential consumers attention as this was what most of the responders to my survey said was what drew them to a particular magazine. Otherwise I have observed that the less effective and professional looking front covers were those that were cluttered and as a result I will limit the number of cover lines on mine so that they attract audiences and convey concisely the content of the magazine, without giving excess and unnecessary information.
- 3. Reflection on Contents Page Analysis • From my analysis of contents pages I have concluded that there is really only one main layout of an image adjacent to the contents lines however I have learnt that the size of this image as well as the mise en scene of it and the colour scheme of the overall contents page are very important. Therefore I will be shooting the contents page image for my magazine in black and white and otherwise keeping the colour scheme mutes and quiet to contrast with the bright front cover. I am also going to make the image larger than the writing on the page, but not by a drastic amount instead it will show the artists importance without overshadowing the rest of the content of the magazine which I have seen happen in some of the contents pages I have analysed. In addition because I am using a female model for my photo shoot I will ensure that the representation of gender is that which I want to convey – a counter-stereotype as opposed to the industry standard perception of women and I will factor this into the mise en scene and blocking in the image itself.
- 4. Reflection on Double Page Spread Analysis • My double page spread analysis has revealed two layouts I could use and what is conveyed through both, the first that includes more text and a comparatively smaller image conveys more of what I would like to convey than the alternative that reveals less about the actual artist and person and more about others perceptions of them. As a result I will be using the first layout, with one large or two slightly smaller images and at least toughly 750 words of text on the artist and their interview with the magazine. I will use two images of the female artist working as this is what I would like to represent – the hard work necessary to succeed etc. not just the rewards at the end, I feel that the larger image combined with less text reflects negatively on the artist and implies they aren’t prepared to reveal themselves to their fans and because I don’t want to show this I will not be using this type of layout for my double page spread.
- 5. Reflection on Audience Research • My audience research has taught me what the mass market looks for in a front cover and what attracts them to a front cover as well as what features would be most popular and therefore what to include in my contents page and how important various other aspects of the production of a magazine allowing me to prioritise them in relation to the mass audiences preferences. In addition I will be focusing on my photo shoot as the central image came back as most the most important part of a front cover and the colour scheme, the research also helped me understand the mass market perception of rap and this will help me steer the content to them in order to create the most consumer friendly product I can. My contents page will be heavily influenced by the responses given the understanding of peoples views on rap that the research has given me as well as which target audience I am targeting in the first place.
