My media product challenges conventions by using color on the contents page rather than a plain background. The color scheme matches the front cover and is intended to make the magazine stand out. While most magazines feature the main artist on the contents page, mine only includes pictures of featured artists to avoid clutter. The double page spread uses a simple black and white background to reflect the artist, without a stereotypical large central image. A pull quote is used as the heading to immediately give the audience an idea of the story.

This document discusses how the student's media product, a magazine called "Mercy", both uses conventions from real music magazines and challenges some conventions. The student structured their magazine similarly to magazines like "Vibe" by featuring the main artist prominently on the cover and using consistent formatting, layout, and design elements throughout. However, the student also challenged conventions by including an untraditional smiling photograph of a rapper, as rappers are typically portrayed seriously in hip hop magazines.

The document provides a preliminary task for a college magazine media product. It discusses how the magazine cover and contents page use real magazine conventions like mastheads and images in specific layouts. The document also discusses what was learned from using software like Photoshop and InDesign to construct the magazine, specifically photo editing techniques and page layout.
In what ways does this media
The document analyzes how the Mixer magazine challenges conventions of typical music magazines. It uses a variety of images and colors with no clear structure or color scheme. It mixes genres of music across its features unlike Vibe magazine which focuses solely on rap/R&B to match the artist on its cover. While Vibe follows typical magazine conventions, Mixer stands out visually and in its diverse musical content to appeal to a younger audience.
My brief
The document provides examples and guidance for a student creating a music magazine for a coursework assignment. The student must create the front cover, contents page, and a double-page article spread using Photoshop and InDesign. Examples shown include magazine covers featuring well-known artists, contents pages displaying images of people from the waist up, and article spreads with a portrait of the artist on one page and text on the facing page. The student chooses to emulate the style of Vibe magazine, known for its unique covers.

Q1
This document analyzes how the media product uses, develops, or challenges conventions of real media products. Specifically, it notes several conventions that are used or developed in similar ways between the media product and real magazines, such as using bright colors and free gifts to grab attention, including barcodes and issue numbers, using multiple photos and live action shots on pages, and including reviews and quotes. It also notes one way the media product challenges conventions by making the price clearly visible, rather than hidden.
Drafting Ideas Layout
The document provides details on the layout and design of a magazine called VIBE that the author wants to emulate for their media studies project. It describes using a grey/white background with the masthead in bold letters at the top of the cover page alongside the issue date and price. Interior pages would have the masthead at the top in big bold letters with the artist's image and page numbers on the contents page. A double page spread is outlined with the artist's image on the left and a full interview on the right, incorporating smaller additional images.

Evaluation
Sadia Mahmood evaluates her R&B/Hip-Hop magazine by analyzing how it uses, develops, or challenges conventions of real music magazines. She researched magazines like VIBE and R&B to identify conventions to incorporate. Her magazine includes elements like a masthead covered by an image, taglines relating to music and style, artist names in rectangles, and a mid-shot image of an artist posing in a way that would attract her target audience of females. Overall, she aimed to design her magazine with a layout and elements that would be familiar and appealing to readers of similar music magazines.
Evaluation
Jacob Ellis evaluated his media product and found that:
1) He used conventions of real magazines such as a masthead, cover lines, contents page, and barcode.
2) He developed forms by using unique fonts and colors consistently throughout.
3) He challenged conventions by including free items and a competition to encourage purchases, straying from a purely informative format.
Peresentation 1
The student created a customized hip hop magazine called HYPE Magazine. They researched existing music magazines like VIBE, THE SOURCE, and XXL to guide their process and understand conventions of the genre. While following conventions, the student developed their own distinctive style. For the masthead, they incorporated a piece of text into a letter to make it unique from VIBE magazine while linking to the design of THE SOURCE magazine. The sell line "The freshest magazine on the block" is similar to THE SOURCE's sell line to fit the genre and convey it is a new magazine.
Webiste brief
This document outlines a self-directed project to design a website about Gran Canaria island to promote tourism and raise awareness about a war between the local population and corporations seeking to develop the land. Over four weeks, the designer will create mood boards, a style tile, wireframes, and final web designs and a style guide. The goal is to showcase the island's natural beauty while telling the story of the land conflict, with the hope of attracting more visitors in support of the local community.
Evaluation 1
The document compares the media product (a magazine) to the conventions used in the popular music magazine Vibe. Some conventions that are similar include using a striking main image on the cover with eye contact with the reader, including the logo on the contents page, and using close-up images on plain backgrounds throughout. However, the media product uses a larger variety of fonts and colors while Vibe uses a consistent font and limited palette. The way artist names are displayed also differs, with the media product using bolder text.
Draft album cover designs
The document discusses several draft album cover designs for an artist. Design 1 features an abstract image that is seen as dull. Design 2 shows the artist in color on an estate, seen as too stereotypical. Design 3 has too many colors distracting from the artist. The inlay photo is seen as showing the artist's cheeky side and relaxed natural pose, which could attract young female listeners.
Graphs
This document contains the results of a survey about music video viewing habits. The survey collected data on respondents' ages (majority 16-17), gender (equal boys and girls), how often they watch music videos (most every week or two), preferred music genres (mostly hip-hop, R&B, and pop), and what they expect to see in music videos (mainly dancing and images related to the lyrics). It also shows how respondents find out about new music (mostly internet and friends) and their opinions on whether lyrics and visuals should match and if the artist should appear in the video.
Media Front cover, double paged spread and contents page
The document discusses the process of designing a music magazine, including choosing a color scheme for the contents page using the gradient editor, grouping page numbers with images, using typography from the front cover, editing photos in PowerPoint before adding them, using two layers for the background to represent the genre, cropping images with the magnetic lasso tool and eraser tool, and bringing everything together using a variety of design tools and ensuring the colors and layout worked well.
Question 2,4 & 5 Evaluation
I used an attractive male model on the front cover of my fashion magazine wearing fashionable clothing to promote an enigmatic look. I drew sketches of what I wanted my front cover to look like and showed it to my audience to get their feedback. I also distributed a questionnaire to a variety of people to get their opinions on concepts for my music magazine.
Audience Profile

Their favorite technology includes laptops, smartphones and game consoles.
Music Magazine; Front cover, Contents page and Double paged spread
1) The document discusses the process of designing a magazine, including choosing a color scheme for the cover and contents page, grouping photo numbers to stay with pictures, and using typography from the cover on other pages.
2) Before adding photos to the magazine, the student placed them in PowerPoint and changed their shape and edges to be blurry or smooth.
3) The background uses two layers of black, green, and yellow to represent the genre of the music magazine, and photos were cropped and backgrounds erased using selection and erasure tools.
Survey
This document contains the results from surveys about music magazine preferences. The key findings are:
1) The majority of respondents preferred R&B music and thought an R&B-focused magazine would be most successful.
2) 16-20 year olds were the most interested in music magazines, so the magazine should target that age group.
3) Most respondents do not regularly buy magazines but would be willing to pay £1-2 for a music magazine. Eye-catching photos would increase interest.
4) Websites are the main way people hear about new music, so including website listings would be beneficial. Popular artists, interesting articles, and photos of celebrities are the top things people
Media analysis
This magazine contents page summarizes the genres and target audience. The masthead is split into three sections in a unique style. The main image is of R&B artist Ciara in a provocative pose that could represent the magazine title and stereotypical views of female artists. Text is in white which draws the reader in against a dark background. The page promotes confidence in embracing one's body while also potentially making some feel intimidated.
Question 2, 4 & 5 Evaluation
The document discusses using an attractive male model on the front cover of a magazine in fashionable clothing to promote an enigmatic look. Sketches were drawn of the desired front cover and shown to an audience to get feedback. A questionnaire was also distributed to various people for a music magazine to get their opinions.
Presentation2
The document summarizes changes made to improve a music magazine from the first draft to the current version. The front cover image was re-shot with a new artist in a different setting related to the "Bashment" genre. The color scheme was changed to better merge with the cover image used throughout. The contents page layout is now more readable with sub-headings that stand out more clearly. Images in the double-paged spread are now better edited and blended with text for a more professional look. Feedback from peers was used to make further improvements by using more image effects and focusing more on layout and color scheme relating to the genre.

Cap srtucture hotdebt
This document summarizes a research paper that examines "hot" debt markets and their impact on corporate capital structure. The paper finds that:
1) Perceived favorable capital market conditions and information asymmetry costs are important factors that lead firms to issue more debt during hot debt market periods.
2) Firms with high information asymmetry costs issue significantly more debt when debt market conditions are hot compared to when markets are cold.
3) Hot debt market issuance has a persistent effect on the capital structure of issuing firms, which do not actively rebalance their leverage levels over the long-term as capital structure theories would predict.

It represents urban hip-hop fans aged 13-28 through the use of stereotypically associated colors like black, red, yellow, and green. It also represents this group through the use of hip-hop slang and representations of intimidation, arrogance, and displays of wealth through clothing brands and jewelry. These representations play into common stereotypes of the target social group.
Evaluation of magazine
My magazine uses conventions of real magazines such as a striking cover image, limited color palette, catchy header, and barcode. The contents page includes cover lines with page numbers and images. The double page spread features a large main image, plain background for text, and grab quote. Conducting a questionnaire helped address the target audience of 15-19 year olds interested in R&B artists like Rihanna and Drake. Distribution companies like IPC that have experience with music magazines would be suitable to publish. Photoshop skills like adjusting colors and adding effects were utilized to construct the magazine pages.

Evaluation
The document describes the design choices made for the front cover and contents page of a magazine about chiptune music. Key conventions like the masthead, color schemes, and use of imagery are developed in angular, graphic styles that simultaneously follow and challenge typical magazine formats. The target audience of "nerds" interested in electronic music is represented in a cool, visually stimulating way that shifts from stereotypes. Inspiration came from studying the design of Slices magazine, and the learning process improved skills with tools like the pen tool and use of brushes in Photoshop.
Evaluation
My product uses many of the same forms and conventions as real music magazines, such as a large headline, prominent images, band/artist names in titles, and columns for article titles on the contents page. However, it also challenges some conventions by using two contrasting colors on the cover background and having two feature images on the double page spread rather than one. Through this project, I have improved my photography, editing, and design skills by using Adobe Photoshop and researching real magazines for inspiration. Comparing my preliminary task to the final product shows development in mixing styles and using lighting/shot types to achieve different effects.

Equipment list
This document lists various equipment needed for a production including a tripod, green screen, voice recorder, lighting, video camera, bookshelf, bed, and stage. A skateboard is also included in the list.
Unused pics and why
This document discusses a photo shoot for a rap artist and feedback on a picture taken. It notes that the picture shows a more relaxed side of the artist but his face cannot be seen, which prevents understanding his emotion and connecting with audiences. Moving the camera higher to show his face would make the picture more capturing and help audiences understand his message and genre. The low camera angle was meant to show superiority but he looks too relaxed, which may give the impression of not being serious about his music career.
Cd names
The document discusses potential album title choices for an upcoming release. Several options are presented such as "Good Life", "True Colours", and "Dreams", however each is found to have flaws such as being too cliche, not linking to the album's other tracks, or sounding repetitive when combined with the artist's name. Ultimately, none of the initial choices are deemed ideal for the album name.
Paparazzi
Postmodernism rejects the idea that any media text is more valuable than another. Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi" music video uses techniques of postmodernism by referencing and blending elements from popular culture and classic films to tell a narrative about the dark side of fame. The video references Sunset Boulevard and Vertigo through its narrative and visuals while also incorporating symbols from Minnie Mouse. Lady Gaga portrays a character who experiences the ups and downs of celebrity, from riches to a dramatic fall from her balcony staged by her boyfriend, showing some realities some celebrities face due to fame.
Paparazzi
The document discusses the concept of postmodernism and analyzes Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi" music video. It summarizes that the video uses techniques like pastiche, homage, and intertextuality to reference popular culture and blur boundaries. Specifically, the video acts as a short Hollywood film highlighting celebrity fame and tragedy, making references to films like Sunset Boulevard and Vertigo through its narrative and stylistic elements.
Info for media
Tom Tripp is a rapper from London born in 1994. The song he chose, "Dreamsville", explores themes of enjoying life and having fun. It was chosen because it had a more positive message than other songs considered and received the most positive feedback from classmates and teachers due to its lyrical content focusing on positive themes in a way that stands out from typical rap/hip-hop music.
Unused pics
A woman's hair covered part of her face and a ladder was visible in her tights in one image. Another image was blurry and part of a shoe was cut off. An image was not used on a contents page because clothing string was visible and the woman's pose seemed to be for a fashion magazine rather than music.
What is bashment music
Bashment music, also known as dancehall, is a popular genre in Jamaica developed in 1978 that blends reggae and grime with a fast, danceable beat. While dancehall gained popularity in the mid-1990s, it has received criticism for sometimes violent and homophobic lyrics. Bashment music is popular in the Caribbean and UK on private radio but not public radio, as record labels do not see it as competitive in the global market. The author chose to create a Bashment magazine to showcase the genre and artists in a more sophisticated light, addressing stereotypes, and fill a gap, as research found no existing Bashment magazines.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.Skybuffer SAM4U tool for SAP license adoption

Question1 Media Evaluation
- 1. In what way does your media product use, develop or challenges forms and conventions? Masthead Looking at the two front covers if I was to compare my front cover which is on the left hand side to the one on that is on the right side which is ‘Vibe’ magazine its clear to see that they both have a colour scheme although the one on the right is very simplistic however my magazine shows off its culture and also the colour scheme represent my artist culture. Main image Sell lines Both have websites Both have barcodes
- 2. With my contents page I have additional images and text, most of the backgrounds that I’ve seen on content pages have been either colourless, plain or cluttered so I decided to use the same colour that I used on my front cover on my contents page. The reason why I never done a colourless contents page is because I wanted my magazine to stand out more to my target audience. Most magazine’s would have a picture of their main artist and also other artist on their contents page but I’ve decided to just use pictures of the featured artist in my magazine first of all I didn't want my contents page to look cluttered so I only used two pictures and also only have a few pages listed.
- 3. In my double page spread I decided to use a natural black and white background so that the simplicity of it reflects on my artist, I decided not to make my double paged spread look stereotypical by this I mean by making my double paged spread have a big fat image of the artist either in the middle of the page or on one whole page. I also used a pull quote as my heading on this page so that when my audience looks at the page they straight away get a rough idea to what the story is about. Page numbers Pull quote
