Reception theory was prioritized to help readers relate to similar-aged artists and feel they can achieve potential successes represented in the magazine.
Evaluation Question 2
The document discusses how a media product represents teenagers aged 16-18. It uses a teenage model who is dressed casually in a strappy top and jeans to appear like a normal teenager. This allows the target audience to relate to the model by mirroring the audience's age, dress, and natural appearance without styled hair or heavy makeup. The direct address by the model in medium close up photos creates a personal relationship for the target teenage audience to feel represented without stereotypes.
Evaluation media portfolio
- The document provides an evaluation of a music magazine media product called DMD.
- It describes the design conventions used, including the title, color scheme, and layout following Guttenberg principles.
- The target audience is identified as men and women aged 15-27 based on market research, and the magazine aims to attract this group through its music content, images, and use of a direct address model on the cover.
Evaluation - Question 2
The magazine represents young British and American adults. While all images feature male models in line with genre conventions, the document aims to be inclusive of both male and female readers. Models are posed and dressed to appear approachable and non-intimidating. Photos use direct eye contact and softer facial expressions to create connection. Layout and design features simple, easy to read text and bold colors to appeal to younger audiences. The goal is to relate artists to readers and build fan bases through a sense of personal relationship.
Question 4 & 5
My target audience for the electronic music magazine is males and females aged 16-25. Feedback from a focus group on Facebook helped address what this age group would want in a magazine. While the initial research found more male interest, the magazine aims to attract both genders equally through neutral colors and inclusion of both male and female models. Features like bold text, imagery, and uncluttered layout align with conventions of magazines for this age range. Eye-catching images and direct addresses to the reader are intended to attract and engage the young audience.
Question 2
This document discusses how the media product represents particular social groups. Specifically, it summarizes that the magazine is aimed at and represents white, British teenage females interested in popular music. Photos feature mostly female artists to portray them as subjects rather than objects for the male gaze. Softer colors are used to appeal to a younger, female audience. Younger models are featured and a young female artist is on the cover, depicted in a stereotypical but positive way for this target group. Throughout, the magazine aims to empower women and portray them as role models for its target audience.
Evaluation one
The double page spread aims to challenge conventions while also conforming to some. It breaks from traditions by using a long shot instead of a close-up, and edits the image in an unrealistic way to make it more interesting. Elements that conform include using house colors, a drop cap, masthead, and low camera angle to portray the model as powerful. The spread also challenges stereotypes by portraying the female model as strong and independent rather than weak or in need of saving.
Evaluation question 2
The document summarizes how the media product represents particular social groups. It represents white British young adults and teenagers as this aligns with the target audience. Females are prominently featured to attract a female audience, breaking from conventions. Models and subjects depicted are in the target age range to enable audience identification. Direct eye contact in photos establishes a personal connection without objectifying subjects. Layout and design choices also aim to appeal to and be easily understood by the target female young adult audience. The goal is to create a sense of inspiration and relation between similar-aged artistic subjects and the audience.
Question 2 evaluation
The document discusses how the media product represents social groups. It specifically targets white British teenagers and young adults aged 17-25. Images in the magazine feature white British male models around the same age to allow the target audience to connect with and relate to the artists. The magazine also represents middle-class audiences. Photos are used to engage the male audience and create a sense of identification and relationship with the magazine. Shot types, layout, and ideology are designed to attract the target demographic and build fan loyalty.
Question 2 evaluation
The document discusses how the media product represents social groups. It specifically targets white British teenagers and young adults aged 17-25. Images in the magazine feature white British male models around the same age to allow the target audience to connect with and relate to the artists. The magazine also represents middle-class audiences. Photos are shot using eye-level shots to directly engage the audience, most of whom are male. Layout and design aim to attract young male readers through limited text and emphasis on images while maintaining a sophisticated style befitting the target demographic.
As media studies evaluation
Jack Humpherson created a media studies magazine as a coursework project. He analyzed conventions of existing music magazines and incorporated some conventions into his magazine while also making it unique. His intended audience was teenagers and young adults who enjoy rock and metal music. He represented this audience through images and articles that featured styles and topics relevant to subcultures like goths and punks. Jack determined that Bauer Media would be a suitable publisher as they already publish similar magazines that target the same demographic.
Evaluation
The document discusses the media product's use of conventions and challenges to magazine conventions. The cover follows conventions like magazine layout but uses an unconventional close-up image. The contents page generally follows conventions but has an unconventional layout. The double page spread follows conventions like dominant images but challenges conventions through limited text.
Media evaluation
The document discusses the design of a magazine cover, contents page, and article spread. It addresses how these designs follow conventions of real magazines in their genres or challenge conventions. The cover follows conventions like prominent masthead and placement of key information. The contents page lists articles clearly but uses an unconventional layout. The article spread places a large image on one page as is typical but includes an atypical teaser.
Evaluation
- The document discusses the target audience, distribution, and conventions of Joe Jackson's music magazine project.
- The target audience is described as late teens and people in their 20s, as represented by the models on the cover wearing trendy clothes.
- Distribution partners discussed include major retailers, IPC Media as a leading UK publisher, and similarities to the distribution of competitor magazine Vibe.
- Conventions from real magazines, such as prominent mastheads and cover styles, are used, while some aspects like banner placement are altered for effect.
Media Studies Evaluation
The document discusses how Joe Jackson's music magazine represents and targets particular social groups. It aims its content and advertising primarily at teenagers and young adults in their late teens to early 20s. Images on the cover and throughout feature models of the same age range dressing in styles typical of that demographic. While mainly targeting males, the magazine's content can still be accessed and enjoyed by females as well. The magazine represents its target audience as being of a lower or working class through the styles of dress portrayed in hoodies and serious facial expressions.
Question 2 (1)
The media product represents white British and African American teenagers and young adults, who make up the target audience. A male model is featured to attract female readers and encourage male readers to relate to the artists.
On the front cover, the model is sitting casually but importantly dressed fashionably rather than stereotypically, appealing to the target audience.
The contents page layout is simple with minimal text, clear structure, and a splash of color to attract readers' eyes without overwhelming them.
A variety of shots are used, including eye-level shots to create a direct connection, non-eye level shots to add mystery, and a mixture of long, mid, and close shots of the same model to enable connection
Evaluation
The document discusses ways in which the author's media product (a magazine called FeedBack) uses, develops, or challenges conventions of real media products. Specifically, the magazine goes against conventions used by other magazines in its coloring on the front cover and layout of the contents page. It also challenges conventions by varying coloring between pages rather than keeping a consistent scheme. The author aims to connect more with audiences and have a more unique identity compared to magazines like NME that are strongly associated with their branding colors. The double-page spread follows some conventions like including an image, text, and titles but challenges conventions through its faded text box and limited paragraphs. Overall, the author seeks to both follow and develop new conventions to make the magazine stand

Question 7
The student learned many skills from their preliminary task to the final production that improved the professional quality of their work. Specifically, they learned how to better use lighting, select appropriate fonts, implement a consistent style, utilize layers in Photoshop, and incorporate industry conventions like well-designed mastheads. They were able to apply these lessons to create a double page spread for their final project that had unique colors, professional positioning of images, and an eye-catching "lens flare" effect. Overall, their skills in Photoshop and understanding of magazine design greatly increased, allowing them to produce a higher quality final product.
Question 6
The student learned about various technologies through creating a music magazine. They used a Canon 600D digital camera to take photographs, which allowed for instant viewing and large storage capacity. Photoshop was used to manipulate images and add text. They used their mobile phone to conveniently take photos and communicate with others. PowerPoint and SlideShare helped create and share an online evaluation presentation. A projector was used to project an image onto the student's body for the cover. Through tutorials and practice, the student improved their skills with these technologies, creating a higher quality final product than would have been possible otherwise.
Question 3
Harris Publications would be the best media institution to distribute my electronic music magazine. As the largest publisher of music magazines in the US, selling over 285,000 copies monthly, Harris Publications has expertise in the genre and a large customer base. Their experience publishing "Scratch" magazine shows their ability to promote similar electronic music titles. Their large scale of operations also means my magazine's production costs would be relatively low.
Question 1
The document discusses the conventions used in media products and how the author's magazine challenges and develops some of those conventions. Some of the common conventions the magazine uses include a masthead, features, columns, images and page numbers positioned at the top of the page. However, it challenges conventions by placing the main image across a double page spread rather than splitting it, and by having a male model on the cover rather than a female to challenge gender norms. The magazine also includes unconventional elements like social media links to better engage its target audience. Overall, the magazine draws from standard industry conventions but also adapts them to better suit its specific purpose and audience.
Media studies evaluation a2 done
The document discusses how the author's media product uses, develops, and challenges conventions of real media.
It summarizes that the magazine's masthead, layout, colors, fonts, and cover photo generally conform to conventions but also challenge them in some ways. For example, using a landscape photo rather than a model on the cover.
The ancillary tasks of a billboard and website complement the magazine by promoting it across different platforms. The billboard uses simple, eye-catching design that can be understood from a distance, and promotes the magazine's online and social media presence. The website features relevant images and multiple linked pages for an engaging user experience.
Media studies evaluation a2
The document discusses how the creator used various media technologies throughout the research, construction, planning, and evaluation of their media project, including using YouTube for photography tutorials, Adobe Photoshop for image editing, Prezi for presenting work, and Weebly to build the project website. Media technologies helped with research, skills development, communication of ideas, and creating professional-looking final products that met industry standards. Feedback from focus groups aided improvements and ensured the work appealed to the target audience.

Question 2
- 1. How does your media product represent particular social groups? Question 2
- 2. Shot types I have created the effect that the identity of the model in question is some what distorted/blurred, this creates the effect that the music industry doesn’t have to be controlled by a small few and instead anyone has the potential to make it big. This therefor helps to expand the target audience as it can relate to anyone.
- 3. Shot types All images chosen in my production of models were medium close ups, this allows the reader to see the significance of the models and there importance in the music industry. By having male and female models in my production It allows both genders to be able to relate. Counter typically I have a male model on the front cover instead of a female. This suggests that most DJ’s are male, however by having a blurred face we are able to break these codes and conventions and strip away any stereotypical ideals of DJ’s. This hegemonic idea that males are predominantly more likely to be DJ’s then females is a common trend in society.
- 4. I have followed the stereotypical ideals of a double page spread being mainly focused around one large image, relatable to the article. And then having a relatively small amount of text to the left or right of the spread. This is because a younger audience tend to be more attracted to an article if it is heavily covered in images/colour.
- 5. Mise en scene The model on my front cover wears an informal jacket and jumper, giving him a casual rugged look. This enables teenagers to be able to relate to the model and their youth. My research into magazine front covers suggests that most DJ type models continue this theme of having a casual look. Thus why I have mirrored it into my own magazine. Regarding props on my front cover, I haven’t featured any sort of prop which could normally be relatable to the electronic music scene (i.e. alcohol/drugs ) as imp not trying to suggest this is what should be acceptable. However the use of decks/mixer not only highlight the name of the magazine but also suggest what the main article is about.
- 6. Layout The layout has a simple style, this is representative of the youth target audience. There is very little crowding and is mainly image based and contains little text. There is an organised structure allowing for nothing to be missed, in case the younger age of my audience may lead to them being less attentive. Much like mixmag contents page’s my production features several image’s which relate to featured articles throughout the magazine. Like I said earlier stereotypically a younger audience tend to prefer looking at image’s over text which may ‘scare’ them away from reading on. The informality of my text was done to keep the readers attention. My layout was adopted from Mixmag’s content page’s.
- 7. Images The models featuring in my magazine are all of a youthful age, this leads to the audience feeling more obliged to relate to the magazine. This means they can relate to artists featured, which is essentially what I wanted to create by allowing the readers to feel they can become who they are reading about. Personal integration is created as it becomes relatable between young the young audience and the artist. The front cover image reverses and challenges Mulveys theory. Her theory consisted of the thought that females are used as sexual object to males gaze. By challenging this convention you could attract those males, and the females who admire the male under the reversed ‘gaze’
- 8. Essentially the simplistic style of my production suggests that my desired social group would prefer to see image’s and colour over wordy text articles. As a whole they are representing the 16-25 audience in society, who are interested in complex ideas such as electronic music but would prefer to look and visualise it then read it. Because of this I have adapted my magazine to fit this criterea.
