The document compares and contrasts the representation of social groups in two media products: a Q Magazine cover photo of David Bowie and the student's magazine cover photo of a male artist. It finds that while both use similar shot types and lighting, they differ in the use of makeup, styling, and clothing. The document concludes that the student's photo portrays their male model subject as independent, strong, representative of rock music, serious, talented, and important through the photo's direct gaze, lack of assistance, attire, facial expression, and placement in the magazine.

Question 2
This document compares two images - one from Q Magazine of David Bowie and one of the artist's own image. Both images use a medium close-up shot with direct address and straight on angle under high key lighting. However, the Q Magazine image of Bowie lacks shadows, shows him without clothes but with styled hair and makeup, while the artist's image includes shadows, clothing but plain hair and no makeup on their subject.
Photography plan
The photographer will photograph a local indie rock band called King No-One to feature in their magazine. The band dresses in typical indie styles like black skinny jeans and plain colors that represent the genre. Photos will be taken at a King No-One gig at a York pub, using band instruments as props and capturing the straight-faced, relaxed mood associated with indie rock. Lighting and angles will emphasize the band's confidence and importance on stage.

How does your media product represent particular social
The document compares a photo from the student's media product to a photo from a professional magazine, analyzing similarities and differences in shot type, positioning, facial expressions, and dress. While the shots are generally similar, the student's photo uses more color and lacks props to keep attention on the model. The clothing of the student's model would likely appeal more to a younger audience. By presenting models in a casual, realistic way without making them look perfect, the photos are meant to represent and relate to audiences interested in indie pop or rock music.
Shots List Explanation
The document discusses potential photo shoot ideas for the cover of an indie pop music magazine. It proposes 12 different photo concepts featuring an artist, with a focus on incorporating props that represent the indie aesthetic like flower crowns, large hats, guitars, and scenic backgrounds. The goals are to attract the target audience by creating pleasing and intriguing images that reflect the fashion and artistic styles associated with indie pop music.

The document discusses the evaluation of a magazine media product. It describes the style, colors, and layout conventions used in the magazine, including the banner, contents page, and background textures. It represents the target social group through images of people in clothing and poses appealing to that group. The ideal audience is identified as 16-19 year olds interested in rock, metal, and screamo music who like to dress in dark, individual styles. The magazine aims to attract this audience through humorous images, appealing band photos, and inclusion of bands the audience enjoys.
Question 2 representations
The document discusses how people are represented in a magazine targeted towards 11-20 year old males. On the front cover, the artist is shown wearing a leather jacket, associated with rock stars and bikers, representing the target audience as aggressive and careless. Masculine colors are also used to appeal to males of that age group. On the contents page, the artists are shown looking relaxed or with straight faces, representing the attitude of the target audience. Rough fonts are used for headings to seem aggressive and masculine. On a double page spread, bold but destroyed fonts, dark colors, and easy to understand language in a dark setting represent the target audience as rule breakers stereotypically associated with rock magazines.
Initial plans.
This document outlines Lloyd Goddard's initial plans for a photography project, including three mood boards and key influences. The mood boards provide inspiration for three planned photo shoots - one capturing student life on film inspired by i-d magazine, another experimenting with color manipulation and effects like David Hockney, and a third taking influence from 1990s fashion, music and culture. Key influences mentioned are the Instagram account @toughluckuk showcasing student photographers, fashion influencer Danny Lomas known for classic British styles, and the brand Cold Archive which promotes young creatives through social media.

The document discusses the conventions and codes used in the media product of an indie music magazine. It uses technical codes like fonts, layout, and images as well as symbolic codes like posing of subjects and color schemes to identify the magazine's genre and challenge stereotypes. The cover features indie artists to attract readers interested in that genre. The black and white color scheme and lack of color on the contents page further signals the indie genre. However, a double page spread subverts expectations by posing the artist with an indirect gaze rather than a direct smile at the camera as seen in other magazines. Overall, the document examines how the magazine's forms and styles develop and challenge conventions to effectively represent its target indie music audience.
Presentation1
This magazine targets 17-27 year olds interested in indie/rock music. To represent this group, the magazine includes a music festival competition, focuses on artists who play instruments like guitar, and features models dressed in clothing found at stores like Urban Outfitters. While some stereotypes of the genre include substance use, the magazine avoids explicit images and focuses more on the music and fashion to represent its target audience. Photos are taken at locations this group would visit, like homes and outdoor areas, with lighting, poses, and language designed to engage younger readers interested in indie culture.
Evaluation q2
The magazine represents several social groups through its images, colors, and features. The images of the girl band on the cover would appeal to both male and female audiences interested in music. Additional concert photos represent the indie music genre. The mainly gray, black, and white color scheme with red and yellow accents appeals to indie music fans, while the feminine colors draw in female readers. Features like competitions attract those interested in entering contests. The interview article allows music lovers to learn about the featured girl band firsthand.
Media Evaluation Q 1&2
My media product both challenges and uses conventions of real music magazines. It challenges conventions by only featuring young female artists, who are underrepresented in acoustic guitar magazines that typically feature older male artists. However, it also follows conventions through its layout, use of cover lines, and color scheme similar to other magazines. The media product represents various social groups including young women under 25, those experiencing social mobility, and fans of acoustic music. While it increases representation of women and class mobility, it does not prominently feature racial diversity or certain subcultures.
Question 2
This document discusses how a media product represents a particular social group of 16-24 year old rock and indie music fans. It examines the representation of this group in terms of the modeling choices, clothing, hairstyles, makeup, body language, and photography techniques. Specifically, it aims to portray the stereotypes associated with this group, such as dark clothing, tattoos, piercings, and messy hair, while also challenging some stereotypes by having the model take his music seriously and not smile. The document analyzes the similarities and differences between this media product and how other magazines like Kerrang represent this target audience.

Trailer q1
The film trailer follows horror genre conventions with an MPAA splash screen, production logo, and establishing shot at the beginning. It shows the monster only partially and in shadows to create mystery and persuade viewers while still adhering to showing the monster as little as possible. Tense moments have high-key lighting instead of the low-key lighting typical of horror to remove the connotation of safety usually associated with high-key lighting.
Poster q1
The document discusses the film poster the author created. It follows horror film poster conventions like using dark colors like red, black, and gray. It includes elements common to most film posters such as the tagline and credits. While reviews are common on other genre posters, they are less so for horror. The author included them to better inform potential audiences. The poster also features the film rating, which horror posters typically do not include, to fully prepare viewers for the content. It uses the unusual color pink for the main character to represent her innocence rather than dark clothes. A mid-shot is used rather than a close-up to show some action and generate suspense.

Q1- Magazine
My film magazine cover uses conventions from existing magazines like Empire by featuring a mid-shot main image in red and dark colors to represent the horror genre. It also changes the font of the main cover line to match the featured film and includes codes like the barcode, date and price. The character is looking away instead of at the camera to convey fear of being followed. While most magazines fully match the color scheme to the film, this magazine maintains a consistent house style over accurately representing the genre. It also places the colored bar at the bottom instead of the top to move the tagline above the masthead and reduce clutter.
Test shots
The document provides feedback on test shots for different scenes including the front door, house, shower, and bedroom. For the front door, it recommends increasing exposure and adding lighting as the shot is too dark. The house image is praised for being well-lit unlike others, though the sky adds to the dark tone. While the shower scene is well-lit, it suggests the framing could be improved for those shots. The shots of the bed are well-lit and one bedroom framing is a personal favorite but could be pulled back further with a lower angle.
Other logo ideas
The document discusses potential logo ideas for a company. It does not provide any specific logo designs or concepts, but rather suggests exploring different logo options. Further details about logo designs or branding strategies are not included in the brief document.
Horror genres
This document outlines several subgenres of horror films including supernatural horror, slasher films, body horror, zombie films, comedy horror, and gothic horror. Supernatural horror films focus on ghosts and demons, often involving religious themes of possession and exorcism. Slasher films center around a serial killer picking off victims. Body horror focuses on the destruction of the human body. Zombie films depict zombie outbreaks and apocalypses. Comedy horror blends humor and frightening elements. Gothic horror features Gothic settings and combines romance with horror.
History of horror
The document traces the history and evolution of the horror genre in film from the 1890s to present day. It highlights some of the key developments and influential films that helped shape various subgenres over the decades, including the birth of horror in the 1890s, German Expressionist films of the 1920s, Universal monster movies of the 1930s, Japanese films responding to nuclear attacks in the 1950s, the rise of slashers in the 1970s-80s, and the satirical self-aware approach revived by Wes Craven's Scream in the 1990s. The genre has seen both success and failure at times in remakes and cliches but also new influential supernatural haunting films in recent decades.
Evaluation Question 6
The document discusses the various technologies used by the author to research, produce, and evaluate their music magazine coursework. It describes each technology's purpose, how it was used, any problems encountered, solutions, and lessons learned. The technologies used included a Mac computer, Canon DSLR camera, Photoshop, InDesign, Blogger, PowerPoint, Survey Monkey, lighting equipment, iShowu, iPhoto, Prezi, social media, Excel, and Word. The author learned how to effectively use each program and technology through practice and experience working on their coursework.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
