The document discusses which media institution would be best for distributing a new horror film product aimed at a British audience. It suggests that British institutions like Film 4, Channel 4 or Channel 5 would be more suitable than global companies because the film is targeting a British viewership. Film 4 is identified as the best option as it solely focuses on films, frequently shows horror genres, is a successful British institution with 18 million subscribed households, and allows free access for young target audiences.
This document discusses how a media product represents particular social groups. It summarizes that the product, a hip hop music magazine, primarily targets teenagers and young adults. Images of people around the same age as the target audience were used to attract this group. Both gender and age were considered to appeal to broader social groups. Research was done on existing hip hop products and artists to represent stereotypical hip hop styles but also start new trends by mixing smart and gangster clothing in the main image.
The document outlines plans for a magazine, including using unisex colors like red, light blue, and green to appeal to both men and women. It also discusses using a clean font to look professional but possibly an "unclean" font to attract more men interested in hardcore rap. The cover story will focus on the artist on the front cover and will vary depending on if it's a male or female star. Images mentioned include a cover star and competition sticker on the front page to generate interest.
The mood board provides inspiration for a new design project by visually displaying colors, textures, images, and other elements that capture the desired aesthetic and feeling. Key themes represented on the mood board include natural elements like wood, stone, and foliage to convey a sense of earthiness and organic materials. Overall, the mood board aims to set the visual tone and communicate the spirit and emotion behind the design concept in a simple collage format.
The document discusses how the film opening "Ex-terminate" targeted its audience of teenagers and young adults aged 16-23. Several techniques were used, including sound design that created suspense, costumes reflecting modern teen fashion, locations familiar to the target audience, and characters within the target age range that both conformed to and subverted media stereotypes of teenagers. The storyline also helped attract and address the intended audience.
The student learned about various technologies that helped improve their media product. They used Adobe InDesign to layout their magazine, choosing it because it is designed specifically for magazine production. They also used Adobe Photoshop to remove the background from an image since it is designed for image editing tasks. Additionally, the student used the internet to search for a title font.
The filmmaker learned several things in progressing from their preliminary task to the full product. They upgraded from a simple flip camera to a higher quality Sony HDV camera, which allowed for broader shots of the surroundings and more camera control. They also expanded the types of camera shots used to give the audience different angles and perspectives. Additionally, the costumes were improved to better express character personalities and connect with the audience, and creating their own original storyline for the final product allowed it to fit their target audience and incorporate everyone's ideas.
The author reflects on what was learned from the preliminary task compared to the full film product. For the preliminary task, the team was limited in resources and unable to include sound, an effective storyline, multiple locations, or different characters. However, the preliminary task helped assess initial ideas and bring the team together. For the full film opening, more resources and elements were used to create a storyline and characters that relate to society and the target audience.

The document discusses a film production targeting teenagers aged 12-13 and up in the UK to raise awareness about responsible behavior. It aims to educate teenagers about their actions and encourage more positive conduct. While some scenes contain mild violence and language, the film is rated for ages 12+ to appeal directly to teenagers. By targeting all regions of the UK, the film hopes to start important conversations about how society's expectations may differ in various communities. The producers believe the film could succeed financially if marketed well to parents and teenagers.
The image was chosen because the lighting was better than other options, the model's pose fit with the theme of hip hop music, and the clothing style mixed smart and casual attire as seen in real hip hop magazines in a way that fit with the style of the magazine being created.
The document discusses how the media product challenges conventions of horror films. During planning, the group researched popular horror films across genres to understand conventions. They decided on a slasher-horror film opening because those often feature teenagers. While they incorporated familiar elements like teenage characters, they challenged conventions by not focusing the camera on weapons and instead using keys. They also filmed in daylight settings rather than typical nighttime, challenging expectations but still creating an effective horror film opening.
The target audience for the film opening is teenagers and young adults aged 15-21. Research was conducted including a target audience questionnaire given to two age groups, 10-14 and 15-19. The results of the questionnaires showed that the 15-19 year old group most enjoyed watching horror films. Therefore, the official target audience is 15-19 year olds.
Bauer Media would be the best institution to distribute my hip hop music magazine. As one of the largest media companies worldwide, Bauer Media publishes over 300 magazines across 15 countries and has online, TV, and radio branches. This wide reach would help my magazine gain exposure. While Bauer Media typically targets older audiences, there is room to also reach younger generations. My magazine aims for young males and females, complementing Bauer Media's portfolio. Distributing with Bauer Media would provide opportunities to partner with other brands and leverage their various advertising methods to promote my magazine more affordably and effectively.
The document discusses what the author has learned about technologies from constructing this product. They learned how to use editing software like Final Cut Express, which they initially struggled with but eventually got comfortable using. They also learned how to operate a professional Sony video camera, like adjusting lighting and focus. Additionally, the author learned how to use various websites like Slideshare, Prezi, Powtoon, and Issuu to customize their blog and make it more visually interesting beyond just text posts. They were previously unfamiliar with most of these sites except YouTube.
The document discusses how the author attracted their target audience for a new magazine. They used a young male model on the cover to appeal to both genders of a similar age group. Research was done on existing hip hop artists and styles to portray a stereotypical look in the cover image that mixes smart and gangster clothing to start a new trend. The author also offered a free CD with the magazine to attract the audience with a free gift.
The document discusses how a media product was designed to emulate conventions from real hip hop magazines like Vibe. To do this, the creator made a mood board and observed several hip hop magazines to select conventions to use. The main conventions incorporated into the design were the color scheme, tagline, position of the main image, font, a quote from a hip hop artist, and mentioning the main story on the cover. By combining multiple conventions, the design aimed to appeal to target audiences while also offering some uniqueness. The creator mirrored layouts and font sizes from sources but used a different main image to challenge stereotypes in how hip hop artists are typically portrayed on magazine covers.
The document discusses how the media product represents social groups such as young people and gender roles. For young people, the two main characters of Sarah and Danny are meant to represent teenagers/young adults to make the target audience feel represented. Danny's character portrays negative stereotypes often associated with teenagers, while Sarah subverts these stereotypes by wanting to succeed. For gender roles, Danny conforms to male stereotypes of being serious and aggressive through his facial expressions and chasing Sarah. Sarah conforms to female stereotypes of being weak and submissive through allowing Danny to chase her and expressing terror.
I have learned several important lessons about filmmaking from creating an opening scene. First, it is crucial to manage your time effectively to complete all tasks to a high standard. Second, the type of camera used, whether a flip cam or bigger camera, comes with advantages and disadvantages for resolution, ease of use, and cost. Third, when editing in Final Cut, it is important to ensure smooth continuity between scenes through correct match-on-action and effective use of jump cuts.
Kiera learned about various technologies through creating a film opening product. She used Prezi to creatively present work in unique designs. PowerPoint 2010 was also used because it is simple and not technical. Slideshare allows uploading PowerPoints created in PowerPoint. Final Cut Express was used to edit scenes, add transitions, and edit soundtracks for the film opening.
The author gathered a range of photos to choose from so they would have alternative options in case the photos they initially selected did not fit the theme of their magazine.
The author originally chose an image but then decided to use a different photo after analyzing the conventions of a hip hop magazine, as the author had no way to justify the effects used in the original photo.
Nicki Minaj was interviewed by 12G's Justin kilo about her career and upcoming debut album. She discussed growing up in Queens, New York and how studying acting in school helped her develop unique vocal styles and storytelling abilities in her rapping. Minaj also talked about being discovered on MySpace and how signing with Lil Wayne and Young Money quickly grew her buzz in the hip hop industry. She expressed excitement about affiliating with Wayne but also explained why she waited a few years to officially sign with Young Money.
The document discusses the lessons learned from the preliminary task to the final product. The author learned that the technology used has a big impact on quality, as PowerPoint led to a lower quality preliminary product while Adobe InDesign led to a higher quality final product. The design of the magazine is also important, as the preliminary task magazine resembled a poster more than a magazine due to lack of research. Overall, the author's understanding of software like Adobe InDesign improved over the course of the project, allowing them to create a professional magazine.
The website promotes singer Livia and her new album. It features a slideshow of images of Livia, information about her new music video and upcoming album including images of the album packaging. The website also provides news updates, links to Livia's social media accounts with recent posts, details of upcoming events, and images of merchandise for sale.
The document discusses gathering feedback on a first draft music video from various sources. Audience feedback was collected through an online survey, which identified positive aspects like visual effects and syncing of music and visuals, as well as a need to add the band name and song title. Expert feedback was then sought from media classmates and a teacher, who evaluated how the video aligned with media theories and provided suggestions for improvement, such as adding color to better link to other promotional materials and using another transition effect to vary the ending.
This document provides mock-ups for the front, back, and inside covers of a digipak for an album by Livia titled "Firestarter." The back cover lists the 12 tracks on the album along with copyright text. The inside cover thanks family and friends and discusses where the songs were written and inspirations with additional text.
The document assesses risks for a film production, including hot lighting posing a low risk if turned off when not in use, a high roof top location being a moderate risk requiring a safety briefing, and cables and busy street filming both posing a moderate risk if crews are briefed on safety and equipment is secured.
This document analyzes and summarizes conventions used in pop music videos. It discusses elements like bright colors, youthful clothing and makeup, dancing, and parties that attract young female audiences. Specific videos analyzed include Little Mix - Wings, Selena Gomez - Hit The Lights, and Demi Lovato - Made in the USA. Common techniques seen across videos are direct engagement with the audience, changes in outfit, fast-paced editing, and relatable scenarios to create engagement.
The document discusses a marketing strategy for a song called "fire starter" by releasing the music video and album packaging in early November around Guy Fawkes Night, a holiday associated with bonfires and fireworks. This timing aims to connect the song thematically to the holiday and familiarize the audience. As an example, Katy Perry similarly released her song "Firework" around Guy Fawkes Night to create more connection to the audience and increase sales. However, the products shouldn't be too narrowly themed around Guy Fawkes Night to maintain versatility and long term success.
The document provides guidelines for designing the cover art for a music album called "Fire Starter". The front cover should feature a mid-shot studio photo of the artist using rule of thirds composition and direct address, with the large font album name at the top or bottom. The inside cover photo should be a full cover image of the artist with sparklers creating a heart or writing without text. The back cover should have the song list, a long shot of the walking artist holding a guitar, and copyright details at the bottom.

Below are a variety of fonts that the author has experimented with to choose fonts for a digipak. The style of font greatly impacts the look of a digipak and can change the theme or brand. For a young female audience, the author must avoid dull fonts and instead use bold serifs to draw viewers in. The font choice should also relate to the text subject, such as a "fire starter" title using a flame-like font. The song list font will be smaller and clearer for easy reading.
Demi Lovato sings the upbeat song "Fire Starter", so the music video needs a female lead. Scenes will show young people enjoying themselves. To keep costs down, the producer will cast friends in the roles, including one friend as the lead who fits the genre's stereotypes and understands her role. Additional friends of both genders will be extras in party scenes to match the youthful target audience.
The magazine targets young females who enjoy pop music. Bright colors like pink are used throughout to appeal to this audience. Popular bands like One Direction are featured on the cover to attract readers. Pull quotes are also used to tease the audience and convince them to buy the magazine. Inside, there are interviews and articles on celebrities as well as posters, fashion tips, and gossip to interest readers. The magazine is presented in a clear, image-heavy style that is easy for its target demographic to engage with.
Fonts are an important aspect of magazines that can draw in or push away readers. The document discusses experimenting with different fonts for a magazine targeted towards young females. Serif bold fonts should be used to avoid dull fonts. Font choice should also consider the subject of the text, using bolder fonts for important words. The document lists fonts being experimented with and notes research into fonts will guide the right typography choices for the magazine.
This document appears to be a magazine layout with a cover story as the main focus. The cover includes the magazine title, date, and promotional puffs or teasers for stories inside. The main interior pages continue with the featured cover story presented through text, images and pull quotes, along with several related sub-stories that also include pictures. Additional pages include posters, a barcode, gift information and a message from the editor.
Music magazines use certain design conventions to attract their target audiences. The background image on the cover should feature an artist from the genre the magazine covers. The color scheme is also chosen based on the target demographic and genre. Younger audiences are targeted with brighter colors while darker colors appeal to older readers. The cover story ties directly to the cover image celebrity. The artist's name is prominently displayed to draw attention and the magazine provides a short teaser about the story inside. The masthead stands out boldly through contrasting colors. Photos inside use techniques like direct address and rule of thirds to engage readers as well as bright lighting to make images attractive.
Ella Smith is creating a school magazine called "Three-Thirty" targeted towards teenage students. The main cover story will be about the new head boy and girl of the school. Additional sub-stories include how to relieve exam stress and ways to customize your school uniform. Ella planned to use bright colors and varied fonts to attract young readers but received feedback that her color scheme was too busy. She will modify it based on audience input. Ella also plans to incorporate small design elements like clocks showing 3:30 to make the cover more eye-catching.
