Magazine deconstruction
This document summarizes key conventions used in music magazines, including:
1) The masthead displays the magazine name prominently on the front cover for branding and advertising.
2) Pull quotes are excerpted text from articles used to attract attention and draw readers in.
3) Magazines typically use a limited color scheme (up to 3 colors) that carries through the entire issue.
Evaluation part 1
This document summarizes how the student's media product challenges conventions of real music magazines. It uses a colorful neon font and four colors throughout the magazine as its brand identity, rather than the typical single color. It also incorporates those colors into the masthead, double page spreads, and contents page in colorful lines. Feedback was positive on the uniqueness of this approach compared to magazines like Vibe and NME that use only a couple colors. The student aimed to make the magazine stand out from typical magazines like Q that only use a few colors on the front page with more text than photos.
Draft layout
The document discusses the design elements the author wants to incorporate in their music magazine. They like the plain background and color scheme of one magazine as it makes the writing and artists stand out while looking sophisticated. Multiple magazines influence the author's design choices, including using simple colors, a music chart, different camera angles of artists from varied genres, and images linked to page numbers. The author's magazine will have an interview format in a feminine yet mature color, with the artist image on the right and their name in a different color.
Question 2
The document discusses the process of creating ancillary materials like logos, advertisements, and CD covers for an indie pop girl band called Sassy. It describes how they experimented with different fonts, layouts, photos and designs based on research of other pop artists. They received feedback that their initial designs were unrealistic and didn't represent the band's image well. So they simplified the designs, choosing cleaner fonts and a photo that showed the band literally "pulling shapes" as their album is called. For the final CD cover, they also changed to using the advertisement design for consistency across their materials.

Presentation3
This document discusses how a band's album poster uses, develops, and challenges conventions of real media products. It uses conventions by featuring a recurring piano image and including standard information like release date and names. It develops conventions by making the piano, not the band members, the main focus.

Puffs are included to add value compared to other magazines. The images are brighter and feature relaxed, smiling poses atypical of rock bands to appeal to a wider audience rather than a niche audience.

The ancillary texts were produced to promote the music video and apply uses and gratification theory. Specifically, the poster and digipak feature the artist to make them identifiable and provide identity gratification. While different layouts are used to distinguish the texts, they maintain similarities like font and color scheme to effectively promote the music video through synergy between the materials.

The student's media product uses several conventions of real RnB music magazines, including using a main image on the front cover with additional sub-images and bold, colorful fonts. For the double page spread, generic conventions like a drop capital and pull quote were used. However, the student also developed some conventions by using multiple images on the contents page rather than just one main image and having a white background rather than an image background. The only challenge to conventions was using a female as the main artist on the front cover rather than the typical male artist.
Evaluation
The document discusses the effectiveness of combining a main music product (music video) with ancillary texts (poster and digital album packaging). It notes that the ancillary texts link together through shared themes, styles, and symbolic elements. While the music video focuses mainly on the lead singer, the ancillary texts equally feature the whole band. Color, fonts, and representation of the band are also consistently applied across products. Feedback from audiences was incorporated into revising and improving the products. Specifically, the poster and digital packaging were adjusted based on suggestions to modify symbolic elements and fonts to achieve a more professional look that better promoted the theme of heartbreak.

Both works are early drafts that can be enhanced based on feedback.

A2: Target Audience
The target audience for the trailer is males and females aged 17-30. This age group would be more interested in the horror aspect, while older audiences would prefer the thriller elements. The rating will be 15 due to some sadistic scenes. This younger demographic enjoys being frightened by horror films more than critics assume, as evidenced by quotes showing their intelligence in film choices and that many devoted horror fans are women, despite criticisms of misogyny in the genre.

Final Drafts of all Three Publications
This document contains final drafts of the front cover, table of contents, and a double page article spread from a music magazine.

The double page spread features an article and image about a school girl who found fame, with design elements like credits and page numbers to look professional.
Table of Content Photoshoot Plan
The document discusses the rationale for choosing three specific images from a photo shoot for the table of contents of a music magazine. The first image depicts a model in a recording studio to represent R&B and hip-hop music. The second image complements the magazine's front cover and conveys the saying "there is light at the end of the tunnel." The third image is also used in the magazine's double-page spread to preview its content for the target audience.
Front Cover Mock-up
This front cover mock-up summarizes the key design elements including a captioned cover-line with popular artists, a masthead featuring the magazine title and logo, a dateline and issue number below the logo, a main image featuring a model in an alley with light to tie into common music video themes, and positioning the barcode in the lower right corner for convention. The cover aims to grab audience attention with famous artists and feature a main artist also in an inside spread for consistency.
Table of Content Mock-up
This document is a mock-up for a table of contents for a music magazine that intentionally challenges conventions by placing images on both sides and text on both sides rather than the standard format. The design is inspired by Rolling Stone magazine and uses similar stylistic elements like a dividing line between sections. Photos from the magazine's front cover model will also be used on the table of contents to maintain consistency and flow between pages.

NEWSPAPERS - QUESTION 1 - REVISION POWERPOINT.pptx
Table of Content Analysis
- 1. Table of Content Analysis By Saba Kebede
- 2. Layout This is the table of content of a Rolling Stone magazine. The layout is simple and easy to read in which I would like to portray in my magazine. It clearly defines the features and the departments and what the magazine entails. The photos of Mary J Blige & Sting, and Steve Jobs and Barack Obama on the left hand side and the text clearly written on the right hand side. The use of the text box at the top of Steve Jobs is effective as he is on the front cover of the magazine. This clearly shows the significance of his story and what this particular issue is about. As the layout is clear and defined, I would like to portray this effect in my music magazine.
- 3. Imagery Mise-En-Scene The contents page of this magazine is effective as the first photo of Steve Jobs is of him giving a lecture and Mary J Blige and Sting singing together at a concert. Then there’s Barack Obama in an office, therefore the mise-en-scene represents where they were and an idea of what the articles will be about. Therefore this is effective and gives the reader more on an idea of what they are going to read. The images are big and clear and easy to see, and takes up half of the page. In the images there are also text so tell them where they are.
- 4. Colour Scheme The colour scheme of Rolling Stone is black, white and red, usually and this is consistent throughout the magazine. When I do my table of content for my music magazine I also intend to use a consistent colour scheme so that my music magazine can be identified easily because there would be one colour scheme. The colour red almost represents rock and seeing as the genre of music for my music magazine is R&B, therefore the colour red would not be featured. Nonetheless, the colour blue would be more suitable. The reason why I am using the colour blue is because music magazine “Vibe” also uses blue and it looks effective and relevant to the theme of the magazine.
