Evauluatiojn question3 a2
The document summarizes feedback received from a focus group on various elements of a media project. Key learnings include:
1) An original advert page was considered too eye-catching, so plainer backgrounds and better lighting were used for the product photos.
2) The original contents page was the weakest element and did not match the house style, so it was reworked after research into existing media.
3) Feedback on two editorial page layouts helped decide on an option with more visual elements and split into two columns.
4) Small design changes like adding a drop shadow or increasing photo contrast helped address focus group comments.

Print Production Experiments
Harry Docwra experimented with designing magazine pages in Photoshop. For the cover, he found an image online, added a yellow banner with text, and included a barcode to make it look authentic. For the double page spread, he placed a photo of a cyclist, used placeholder text, and added an advertisement to mimic a real magazine. For his final product, he plans to include a barcode on the cover and may use a banner, and will follow a similar photo and text placement as in his experiment, but not reuse other elements.
7. fmp evaluation
The document provides a summary of Celina Smith's final major project (FMP) evaluation. It discusses the strengths and weaknesses of the research, planning, time management, technical qualities, aesthetic qualities, and audience appeal aspects of the project.

It develops conventions by including subscription details with images and links to websites on every page as well as QR codes for exclusive content.
Photo shoot evidence
Rebecca Phillips chose a model from her music magazine who was interested in the same genre of music that the magazine focuses on. The model brought her own clothes and jewelry that represented the indie/hipster fashion stereotypes associated with that music. The photo shoot took place indoors so that lighting could be controlled, with a white sheet and green screen providing background lighting and three lamps and a reflector lighting the model to represent the flows of material seen in Phillips' inspiration.

Film poster production
This document discusses improvements made to a short film poster based on feedback. The initial poster was published on Facebook to gather comments. Suggestions included shifting text left to avoid overlapping the main image, moving the website link to the right for balance, and adjusting colors and lighting to make the main image stand out darker against lighter secondary images. The final poster incorporated these changes to create a neater design.
Outfit deconstruction

Rachel wears subtle colors like white and blue denim to show her connection to Alison but also her modern fashion sense. Her makeup is minimal but current. Alison wears all white like Rachel to symbolize her calm, angelic ghostly presence and connection to Rachel. Her long, flowing skirt adds to her ghostly appearance and shows her elderly age.
Tape vs digital
This document compares the positives and negatives of using tape versus digital formats for short filmmaking. Tape offers benefits such as the ability to reuse tapes, easy playback, and lower costs for 16mm film. However, tape also has drawbacks like the risk of tapes being overwritten or damaged, higher costs for 35mm film, and the need for a laboratory to convert films. Digital formats have advantages such as widespread availability, low costs, easy uploading to the internet, and constant technological advances. But digital also requires converting to 35mm for cinema display and upgrading equipment for new technologies. The document concludes that for a school short film project with limited access to professional film cameras, using digital tape strikes a good balance between the organic qualities of
Film schedule
The film schedule lists scenes to be filmed with actors Jodie and Doug. Scenes 1 and 2 will feature Jodie, while scene 1 will also include Doug. Multiple scenes 3 through 7 will be filmed on location with all actors present.
Analysis of dementia leaflet
The document summarizes the process of creating a prop dementia leaflet for a short film. It describes researching existing dementia leaflets for conventions like including the NHS logo and images. It then details replicating the style of an NHS leaflet, including using blue coloring and images of a carer and patient on the cover to convey realism. The summary describes using Photoshop skills like shape, text, and image tools to construct the leaflet according to the researched conventions for a professional, realistic prop to inform audiences.
Short film posters
Short film posters have different conventions than big budget feature film posters. American Hustle had a $40 million budget and prominently featured its all-star cast in the poster. In contrast, the short film Purge had no listed actors as it used smaller scale actors, instead highlighting the main actor with blurred backgrounds and shadows on her face to convey drama. Similarly, the short film It Won't Be You had a much smaller budget of only £3045, funded through Kickstarter sponsors that were credited on the poster in recognition of their support.
Genres of short film
This document defines and provides examples of different film genres including animation, comedy, drama, horror, romance, sci-fi/fantasy, and thriller. It notes that genres are defined by common conventions in settings, themes, structure, and style. Short films sometimes blend genres. Examples are provided for several genres to illustrate common elements and conventions for each. The document concludes that a film about dealing with dementia would fall into the social drama genre.
Evaluation of vivere - audience
The document discusses how the author targeted their magazine audience. They aimed the magazine at women aged 16-25 who have disposable income to spend on entertainment like magazines and music events. To attract this audience, the author included many links to live music events since their research found this target group enjoys discovering new artists at social events. The magazine cover features an intense female model to signal to readers they will find passionate artists making good music. QR codes and links to an app and website were also included to keep the tech-savvy target audience up to date on their favorite bands.
Evaluation of vivere - institutions
IPC Media would be well-suited to distribute the magazine because they already distribute similar indie music magazines. IPC Media has experience using different media platforms, such as websites and digital magazines, to distribute their products. The magazine would be sold in supermarkets, music stores like HMV, and independent record/music stores to appeal to a wide audience but also reach the target audience interested in new music, vinyl records, and band performances. Most advertising will be done online through social media platforms and a digital app to suit the target audience of young people who are regularly online and interested in technology.
Evaluation of vivere - progression to final
The document discusses the learning and improvements the author has made from their preliminary task to their final magazine product. Some key areas of improvement include developing Photoshop skills to make the magazine look more professional, learning to better design layouts that are eye-catching with the proper text to image ratio, and paying closer attention to planning photo shoots to ensure clear messaging and that all elements came together well. The author also discusses researching their target audience in-depth and using this to shape the appropriate content in the magazine. Overall, the author learned the importance of careful planning, editing, and reshooting to create high quality images that would appeal best to their target audience.
Questionnaire results for magazine
Rebecca Phillips identifies her target audience as being between ages 16-25 who have disposable income to spend on entertainment. While she received equal male and female candidates, as she is creating an indie music magazine she will mainly target males, but try to include some female-oriented content. Based on her target audience's age and music preference, most will still be in full-time education, so she will use sophisticated language. She also found they enjoy live music events and festivals, so will include reviews, and keeping up with new music, so will feature new artist and music reviews.
Photoshop skills
The document provides instructions for using various tools in Photoshop, including tools for selecting areas, adding and moving layers, filling spaces with color, and editing images. It demonstrates using the Clone Stamp tool to remove earrings from an image, the Smudge tool to blend skin tones, the Magnetic Lasso tool to select around a subject, and the Fill tool to change the background color. Minor adjustments are made using blurring and adjusting contrast and brightness to integrate the subject into the new background.
Photos i will use
The document discusses several photos that were considered for use in a magazine but ultimately not selected. For the first photo, direct eye contact and a medium close-up were cited as positives, but contrast and lighting needed editing. The second photo provided a clear medium close-up of the subject and well-lit facial features, though the left side was overexposed. The third long-shot photo was suitable for a double-page spread due to its wide view allowing the reader to follow a path to the subject. However, multiple photos were rejected for reasons such as lack of eye contact, too much surrounding space, unprofessional facial expressions, and poorly lit or composed shots.
Inspiration for my music magazine photoshoot
Rebecca Phillips chose to base her main magazine article and front cover image on the artist Grimes. She selected a photo of Grimes looking conflicted and under pressure to represent the theme of the article about the pressures on the artist. For the cover shoot, she chose similar clothing and makeup as Grimes that fit the genre of music the magazine focuses on, and had the models make eye contact with the camera to relate to readers, using a medium shot that follows conventions of magazine cover images.
Feedback
The document summarizes feedback received from 5 people aged 16-25 on a magazine final product. Based on the feedback, improvements were made such as adding a drop cap to draw attention to paragraph beginnings, using graphic features around pull quotes to make them stand out, adjusting spacing between headline lines so the text isn't squashed, reducing spacing and increasing font of cover lines to make the overall appearance more professional, and increasing the gap between text and vertical lines for easier reading.
Body language in magazines
The document analyzes representations of artists in different magazines through nonverbal cues like facial expressions, poses, and visual elements. Jay-Z is depicted on a Rolling Stone cover dressed all in black with sunglasses, suggesting sophistication but also intimidation. Katy Perry is shown as strong and independent in one magazine but more sexually appealing in Vanity Fair, highlighting different aspects of her persona. In another magazine, her innocent pink dress and assertive posture portray different traits. The front cover of NME featuring Kasabian indicates the band members are a close-knit team through their physical positioning and eye contact with the viewer.
Advanced photoshop skills
The document discusses various image editing techniques the author learned to enhance images for magazine plans and pages, including adding drop shadows, adjusting brush settings, editing saturation and lighting effects, auto-correcting colors, and applying artistic filters to make images look like pop art. Steps are provided for doubling clicking layers and selecting drop shadow, brush, filter, and image options to achieve the desired effects.
Researching magazine institutions
The four major magazine institutions in the UK are Bauer Media, IPC Media, BBC, and EMAP. Bauer Media publishes over 300 magazines worldwide and focuses on print magazines and radio in the UK. IPC Media creates magazines across various platforms that reach 26 million adults monthly in the UK. The BBC produces magazines in many genres that attract a large overall audience. EMAP specialized in magazine production and once published 59 magazines, notably Smash Hits and Nintendo Official Magazine, reaching 2 million people monthly. Companies continue creating magazines as the format can reach a wide range of people, though production has expanded to digital formats to maintain audiences in modern times.

Review progression
- 2. After looking at the conventions of film reviews I felt ready enough to create our own review. To create our review, I used Photoshop as this gave me all the tools to create a review of professional quality. I used different tools compared to my foundation production, such as…
- 3. • As I got this image from a Google search, I had to remove the excess white of the image. • I used the Magic Eraser tool to do this.
- 4. To add depth to the text features, I added shadows and outer glows to make them stand out on the page and attract the reader’s eye.
- 5. This was the first draft that I showed a group of students to gain their reaction.
- 6. After taking on board my audience reaction, I made the corrections they suggested and a few of my own ideas. Pull Quote Captions Highlighted stars Links to website Increasing text sizes
- 7. I was unsure how to layout the images, but after consideration as a group and using the conventions I decided to go with the layout on the left. This is because I wanted the main image to be at the start of the article as it explains a lot of the narrative. Also, the emotional images on the right are the first thing the reader sees when they turn the page, therefore it attracts their interest as to why the characters look like they do.
