02.) Research
This document provides research on the existing products of three magazines:

- The second magazine features Emma Watson on the cover and focuses on her beauty and fashion. Its target audience is teenage girls and fans of Emma Watson.

Question 2 by George Plumbe
This document is a PowerPoint presentation that summarizes how two social groups, gang members and business men, are represented in the media creator's thriller film. Gang members are represented by the clothes of two characters, who wear black coats creating a gang-like feel, and one character's crooked walking posture showing a gang-like attribute. Business men are represented by the boss character's clothes of a white shirt, tie, black trousers and shoes, creating a business-like feeling, and his serious facial expressions even when threatened. In conclusion, only these two social groups could be represented due to limited resources in the film.
Pro forma audience
The document discusses audience profiles for three different films. The primary audience for the first film is teenagers aged 15-24, especially males, while the secondary audience is adult males aged 25-44. For the second film, the primary audience is adults aged 25-44 due to its serious subject matter, while the secondary audience is teenage boys aged 15-24 attracted to the war setting. The primary audience for the third film "IT" is adults aged 25-44 as it is a horror film, while the secondary audience is teenagers attracted to the horror genre.
Unit g321 music magazine
The target audience for the music magazine is 13-25 year olds who enjoy hip-hop music. The magazine aims to attract a mostly male audience from social classes D and E. Images of the magazine's black male model, dressed in an Adidas hoodie, Tupac shirt, and jeans, conform to genre stereotypes while making the magazine seem realistic. The catchy alliterative cover line "Mix Tape Madness" and the varied double page story are intended to attract readers. Marketing campaigns would include distributing leaflets, posters, and short excerpts from the magazine around areas likely to be frequented by the target audience.
Question 3
The author chose Bauer as the publishing house to distribute their music magazine because Bauer owns popular magazines like Kerrang!, Mojo and Q that focus on rock music. The author's magazine would fit with Bauer's style as it is a mix of Kerrang! and Q in style, but focuses on pop rock music rather than indie/rock. This genre difference means it would not compete directly with Bauer's existing magazines and could attract a new audience, helping both the magazine and Bauer succeed.
The breakfast club script analysis done
The document provides an analysis of the 1985 film "The Breakfast Club" including:
1) It begins with a quote from David Bowie to set the theme and Brian's opening monologue sets the scene without description.
2) The film follows five teenage students from different backgrounds who are brought together in Saturday detention and initially see themselves as having nothing in common.
3) It has a typical three act structure where the students start conforming to stereotypes but break them down through openly discussing their problems in detention.
4) As a coming-of-age teen comedy drama, it both fits and challenges conventions by revealing the humanity beneath stereotypes.
2. research(3) done
The document discusses research on magazine covers and how they can inform the design of a new sports magazine cover targeted at 12-18 year old males. It analyzes covers featuring Kylian Mbappé, Eminem, and Call of Duty Black Ops 4, noting their use of green screens, placement of text in attention-grabbing colors like red, and incorporation of darker shades. The analysis indicates the new cover will also use red text as it is suitable for both the magazine and sport topic of football. An audience profile identifies the target readers as 12-18 year old male belongers of balanced social status interested in football players' lives.
Maryasiye Kircin - Locations Recce
Maryasiye Kircin is creating a magazine and needs photos of her cousin Connie and cousin Shanna for the contents page and cover page. She plans to take the photos on weekends in October at her house, where there will be fewer distractions. For Connie's mid-shot photo, Maryasiye wants to capture her face and hair to portray her as a rap star. For Shanna's full-body shot, Maryasiye wants to show her outfit and style to portray the female rap stereotype. Maryasiye has permission from Connie to feature her in the contents page. Potential hazards of the photo shoot include tripping on items left on the floor or spilled water damaging the expensive camera.

The photograph is a mid-shot portrait of Melanie Martinez on a pink background for the cover of a music magazine. It aims to promote her "Cry Baby" album by depicting her in the style of the titular character - dressed as a child holding a baby bottle. This distinctive visual representation of her musical persona is intended to appeal to fans of her alternative style and increase sales by catching their attention.
Evaluation

Their social media presence further confirms their interest in rock bands.

As media research
This document summarizes a student's evaluations of various magazine covers and layouts as research for their media coursework project on designing their own music magazine. The student likes how some covers clearly target a specific audience and use color schemes effectively. However, they note some covers could improve spacing or focus more on featured images. After testing different title ideas and fonts with their target demographic, the student decides on the title and color scheme for their magazine cover.
Evaluation
The student learned many new techniques and skills in progressing from their preliminary task to the full media product. For the preliminary task, they used basic Microsoft Word skills. However, in creating the front cover, contents page, and double page spread, they used Photoshop and InDesign for the first time. This presented a new learning curve, but as they got more experience with the software, they were able to use it more effectively. The result was a significant improvement over what they could produce for the preliminary task, demonstrating how much they grew in their skills from the start to the end of the project.

Similar to Photographs selection explanation (20)
Photographs selection explanation
- 1. Photographs selection explanation. Front Cover. I have chosen this photo to use for my front cover because the two models fit into the gender, age and social class category that my magazine is based on. They are wearing predominantly black, on a white background, and wearing red and blue shoes – of which are all mature/civilised colours, which are incidentally the colours my magazine is using as a theme (along with yellow). Last of all the two models look serious, which Rock stars are a lot of the time, trying to look cool and mature.
- 2. Contents Page I have chosen to select the following images for my contents page, because they are of single people, looking either happy or serious, this is because I will use them for advertising competitions, and looking happy because they have won one before etc…
- 3. Double Page Spread I have chosen to use this photo for my double page spread because often on a double page spread is an interview with a band, and my interview can be based on these 3 people in theory.
