4. Choral and Opera
• As I had 2 ideas to begin with (Choral and Opera), I
decided to go with Choral in the end as this is the
magazine that would be aimed at both genres and not
just a particular one. Opera was only focused on
females and therefore by having a magazine that
focuses on both genres, I could have increase my target
audience and increase the amount of consumers for
my magazine as both males and females would
purchase the copy. Choral also has some themes
throughout it. For example, the colour schemes, grey,
white and black. Therefore all these factors connote
that Choral is more classic than Opera, that’s why I
decided to go with Choral.
6. Front Cover – Draft
The denotation of the main
headline ‘Why Schubert
hasn’t finished his
symphony?’ is almost
challenging the consumer to
read the magazine as it’s a
rhetorical question. This will
make the consumer think
that the answer to this
question is in the magazine
and so therefore this would
encourage them to find out
the answer and purchase
the magazine and read it to
find out about the main
headline.
7. Front Cover – Draft
• My puff promotion would be winning 2
free tickets for the Night of Proms in Royal
Albert Hall. The denotation of that is a big
event for classic music genre and a lot of
the people who read my magazine would
be interested to go to that event so having
a feature that promotes it would increase
the appeal for my music magazine. It’s
positioned on the right hand corner so
this would grab the attention of the
reader as it’s easy to notice so when the
reader goes to turn the page, they’d
notice it straight away and therefore it will
grab their attention. Including the page
number would also encourage the
consumer to open my magazine and go to
that page and read about this feature.
8. Double page spread – Draft
The denotation of the link to my web address will attract the attention of the
reader when they’re close to finish reading each interview. Having a link to my
web address will allow the reader of my magazine to go online and investigate
what events and stories my music magazine have on its website so it will have
more information for the reader. As you can see in the screenshot from BBC music
magazine there’s a web address link at the bottom of the interview so I adapted
this method to my music magazine.
9. Double page spread – Draft
The denotation of drop capital makes the feature on my double page
spread look less dull as the rest of the text is heavy and recognisable for
the reader. Therefore it’s different than just normal text. The font of the
drop capital would be the same font as the title of the feature/interview
which connotes that they’re connected and to also distinguish the drop
capital from the rest of the text on the double page spread.
10. Double page spread – Draft
The denotation of the links to social media at the bottom of each
page next to the page number will attract the attention of the reader
when they’re close to finish reading each page. Having links to social
media websites will allow the reader of my magazine to go online and
investigate information about the interview in my magazine. From
there they can also find out information about different events my
music magazine has. Having links to social media would increase the
popularity and appeal of my music magazine.
11. Double page spread – Draft
For the main image, I’m
going to have a picture at
the middle of the page to
grab the attention of the
reader and to make my
double page spread look
less dull; I’m also going to
have captions underneath it
to let the reader know
what’s exactly going on
within the picture.
12. Double page spread – Draft
• The denotation of the captions connote what’s the picture is all about
and why is it there. Therefore this gives the reader a better idea about
the picture and what does it represent and why is it there.
14. Chosen masthead font style
I chose this font as it connotes some sense
of classical writing in it and it connotes that
older/upper class people writing would be
similar and this font also looks like this
masthead on the BBC music magazine at the
bottom of this slide so it will grab the
attention as it would look appealing to the
target audience.
Choral
15. Colour
• Black, white and grey
• Based on the research I made, the magazine had a lot of
black and white colour schemes in it to connote the genre
of the music which is classic. The black and white colours
connote that classic is still present these days as Tuxedos
are black and white and therefore this could relate back to
the main theme costume of the classic music events.
• The grey colour is also a mixture of white and black and
therefore it has element of classic musical theme in it. The
grey colour was also used as a background colour for an
edition of BBC Music magazine (magazine of inspiration).
16. Style
• The colours I set from the beginning were black, white and grey. This is because based on the research I made, the magazine had a lot
of black and white colour schemes in it to connote the genre of the music which is classic. The black and white colours connote that
classic is still present these days as Tuxedos are black and white and therefore this could relate back to the main theme costume of the
classic music events. Also, Tuxedo’s are the main theme costume that people wear to attend classical musical events (Such as BBC Night
of The Proms) therefore these colours would be suitable for the genre of my music magazine.
• I also chose grey because it’s mixture of black and white and therefore it has some sense of classic music. It’s also the colour of the
background the front cover of one of the BBC Music Magazine editions.
• As you can see from the screenshot underneath, the colour of the background of my front cover is grey as it matches my magazine of
inspiration (BBC Music Magazine) and the main image contains a male who’s wearing a Tuxedo (which was in my mood board) and
therefore it represents the colours black and white which are classic colours and the main colours of my magazine.
• Looking also at the double-page spread, The page’s background is white (with little shades of music note to represent the classic music
theme in my magazine), and black font. The quote box on the right side of the page is grey. This is done so it can grab attention of the
reader to the quote. Therefore I have kept the same colours I set out from the beginning.
• The magazine will be a print based magazine. However the dimensions will be 247 x 170 mm as that is the regular print size for A4
magazines.
18. Mood Board (why I have chosen the images)
• I have chosen the images as each one of them relate back to classic music.
The expensive watch relates to upper class people as these type of people
would be interested in buying these type of things, therefore having a
Rolex watch would be suitable for the mood board of my classic magazine.
Having a Tuxedo also connotes the main costume theme for these type of
events as classical music events tend to be aimed at upper class people,
therefore it will require an expensive smart costume such as a Tuxedo.
Also, having a picture of Opera connotes where the classic music events
normally take place, as Operas usually take place at famous big halls such
Royal Albert Hall in London. There’s also pictures of famous Opera houses
and famous Italian Opera singers and conductors such as Sydney Opera
House, Royal Albert Hall, Paverotti, Ottavio Danotne. There’s also The
Phantom Of Opera, A Clockwork orange, Les Miserables which are films
that have classic music in it and they’re films that would attract the target
audience of my music magazine. A clockwork Orange represents more a
rebellious type of film but with classic music in it at some parts of the film.
All these images of people and places relate back to classic music.
19. Double Page Spread (Draft of the Interview)
• Interviewer: Bold font, Q()
• Person who’s interviewed: normal font, A()
• Q(0): Welcome to our interview
• A(0): Thank you
• Q1) Do you have any ideas why Schubert didn’t finish his last four movements?
• A1) It was because his father and his involvement WW2. Throughout WW2 he couldn’t focus on completing his symphony that he has worked on the
last years before the war started. Also, towards the end of WW2, he received news that his father has died during the war, and therefore this didn’t
help him to focus on completing his symphony as he was busy with the funeral of his dad and other things in that year (1945) therefore he didn’t
have time to finish the symphony.
• Q2) How long did it take him to write his first 2 movements of the symphony and does he work on one or more symphonies at the time?
• A2) About 2 years. No. My father took his time while making a symphony. He only concentrated on one symphony so all his focus would be only
aimed at what he was working at the time. That’s why most of his symphonies are good and famous because he took his time with each one and
didn’t complicate it by working on other symphonies at the same time.
• Q3) We have information that tells us that he did sketch a third movement. However he never actually finished it or even started it. Can we know
if he ever told anyone at the time about this?
• A3) Yes. He told a few people about it but only within the family. He never told anyone outside the family. In fact, a few composers completed his
third movement. Various composers have completed the symphony based on that sketch, and their interpretation of the first two movements, but
for all intents and purposes, Symphony No. 8 remains truly unfinished.
• Q4) Okay, you say a few composers completed his third movement. How about the fourth which is his last movement? Has anyone completed
both of them?
• A4) Yes a few composers have. Each one completed differently than the other and therefore the last two movements aren’t the same as the first two
movements. As the first two movements are the same and not changed, while the third and fourth movements are different depending on the
composer who did it.
• Q5) Okay thank you. Can you tell us the names of the composers who finished both of the movements?
• A5) Yes. Charles Watkinson, Bastian Baakh, & Michael Dalshitz.
• Q6) Did you feel a bit disrespect from these composers as they carried on his work putting their name on it and not his?
• A6) No I didn’t feel disrespect towards my father, because all the composers who finished his symphony have asked us (the family) if they can finish
off his symphony and we agreed. Therefore they did ask our permission which I don’t find disrespectful.
• Q7) Do you carry on your father’s work? Do you have any schools for his music or any school for classic music genre?
• A7) Yes I do carry on the work from my father. I opened a special school for classic music genre. It specialises in teaching children aged between 5-12
how to use musical instruments, specially the ones that have use in classic music. For example there are lessons for how to use Piano, and it depends
on how experienced the child is with that instrument. If he’s very experienced then he’s category A which is the highest category we have. On the
other hand if someone has just started then they’d be in category E which is the lowest category we have.
• Q8) what is the aim of your school?
• A8) The aim of my school is to produce world class composers, conductors, Opera singers, and people who work within an Orchestra. It aims on
making children like classic music from a young age so t stays with them when they’re older and drive them forward with their abilities to make
them experts in the classic music genre.
• Q(0): Right. Unfortunately we came to the end of our interview. It was pleasure to have you, thank you for coming over and giving us your time.
• A(0): No problem, thank you.
21. Magazine flat plan
• Mr Crafts told me to improve my magazine flat
plan as it was “half a plan” therefore I made
an improved magazine flat plan as it was more
detailed and it showed what each page has in
it. It was also organised and therefore this
new magazine flat plan was “easier to
understand” and “better to look at” according
to Mr Crafts.

Having the website is very important as this
would make the reader go online and
research magazine on the internet. This
makes the reader find out more information
about my magazine outside of its paper copy
and they can also buy the copy online and
read the copies online if they don’t want to
purchase it from the market. It also makes
my magazine look more approachable and
flexible as it can be viewed on the internet
also.
The masthead is on the top of the front
cover is because this will grab the
attention of the reader as it’s obvious to
spot. Also, my research connotes that my
magazine of inspiration ‘BBC Music
Magazine’ has its masthead on top of its
front cover page.
The social media logos connote that consumers can go
online and find my magazine on the social media
websites (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter). This is helpful as
my pages on social media would contain updates about
special features (Such as tickets for world classic music
events). This would then grab the attention of the
consumers as they’d follow my page on social media and
therefore it can encourage them to buy my magazine.

For the main headline, I decided to use a rhetorical
question as this would grab the attention of the
reader of my magazine and it would therefore
make the reader think that the answer to this
question is in the magazine and so therefore this
would encourage them to find out the answer and
purchase the magazine and read it to find out

My puff promotion would be winning 2 free tickets for

the attention of the reader as it’s easy to notice so
when the reader goes to turn the page, they’d notice it
straight away and therefore it will grab their attention.
Including the page number would also encourage the
consumer to open my magazine and go to that page
and read about this feature.

the reader and to make my double page spread look less dull; I’m also going to have captions
underneath it to let the reader know what’s exactly going on within the picture.
• The denotation of the links to social media at the bottom of each page next to the page number will
attract the attention of the reader when they’re close to finish reading each page. Having links to
social media websites will allow the reader of my magazine to go online and investigate information
about the interview in my magazine. From there they can also find out information about different
events my music magazine has. Having links to social media would increase the popularity and
appeal of my music magazine.
• The denotation of the link to my web address will attract the attention of the reader when they’re
close to finish reading each interview. Having a link to my web address will allow the reader of my
magazine to go online and investigate what events and stories my music magazine have on its
website so it will have more information for the reader. As you can see in the screenshot from BBC
music magazine there’s a web address link at the bottom of the interview so I adapted this method
to my music magazine.
• The denotation of drop capital makes the feature on my double page spread look less dull as the
rest of the text is heavy and recognisable for the reader. Therefore it’s different than just normal
text. The font of the drop capital would be the same font as the title of the feature/interview which
connotes that they’re connected and to also distinguish the drop capital from the rest of the text on

27. Plan for images
Location
1) Time
2) Date
3) Why?
Time – Evening Date – weekend This is because evening is where most
classic music events take place.
Weekends are when usually the classic
music events take place.
Picture
Needed/Required
1) Shot Type
2) Props/Equipment
3) Lighting
4) Costume
5) Person/people
6) Why?
1) Shot type - Long
Shot
2) Props/Equipment -
3) Lighting -
4) Costume - Tuxedo,
smart expensive
shoes, bowtie.
5) People -
Conductors, upper
class people, Opera
singers.
1) Shot Type - This is because it gives the reader a
clearer image of the person that is being pictured so
they see the whole picture in front of them and
what’s going on around it. Having a long shot also
helps to see the whole costume of the person in the
picture which makes it easier for the reader to see it.
2) Props/Equipment – Tuxedo,
3) Lighting – Lighting would be focused on the person
that being pictured
4) Costume would be a smart black/white
Tuxedo as it connotes a classic theme and
therefore it links to the genre of my music
magazine as smart costumes are worn in
these type of classic music events such as
Opera.
5) People - This is because conductors,
upper class people, & Opera singers are
involved in classic music therefore it fits the
genre of my music magazine. Conductors &
Opera singers run the event, while upper
class people would be the main people who
would attend these type of events.
Permission Needed
1) Contact needed to
be made
2) Evidence of this?
Contacting my cousin
via email asking them
what
costume/equipment/
props they need to
bring.
Potential
Hazards/Risks
1) Location specific
2) Why?
Taking a picture of my
friend in a Tuxedo
having a glass of
Champagne in their
hands.
A hazard would be that they might spill the drink on
their Tuxedo and therefore it’d ruin it.
Taking a picture of my uncle wearing a
Tuxedo near a bridge. The hazard of that
would be that he might fall over off the
bridge.

39. Resources
(Office)
• Using a site called findalondonoffice.co.uk, I was able to get a rough estimate of how much space I would
require in order to get all the required personnel needed in order to produce the magazine, which came out at
just over 2,700 square ft. The website also provided an estimated cost, priced at £231,200 annually.
• It provides office space for all the 20 staff required to produce the magazine as well as an office for the Editor-
in-Chief, an open plan space for up to 20 employees, a meeting room with a capacity of 16, a small reception,
a small kitchen, a small server room and a small store room.
40. Resources
(Equipment)
• Apple’s Macs are useful for those working in the
creative industry. Thus, the business section on the
Apple store offers a range of MacBooks, with the
cheapest beingaround £900 and the most expensive
being around £2000.
41. Resources
(Software)
• In terms of the software requirements for the
magazine personnel, Photoshop offers a two-year
contract where the Adobe Creative Cloud
membership, which includes all Adobe programs,
could be available for £35.31
42. Key job roles
• Editor can earn a starting salary at £20,000 however this
can increase depending on amount of work they’re editing
as this can start to increase if my magazine starts to
increase its size in the future and therefore after a few
years, the editor would be more earning more money.
• Photographer can earn a starting salary of £10000, this
could also increase depending on the workload and how
many photos the magazine require that week. Therefore
his working hours could change weekly
• Journalist can earn a starting salary at £10000 however this
can increase as the journalist may improve and find more
interesting news and information. It also depends on their
experience, so the more he works for my magazine the
higher the salary would get.
43. Conclusion
• WWW –
• I felt I needed this learning outcome in order for me to understand and see how my magazine is
going to be formed. Getting the pre-production materials helped me to visualise what’s going to be
on my pages for example the drafts helped me to see what’s going to be on the front cover and the
double-page spread (i.e. masthead, strapline).
• I was also able to make a good mood board as I looked at the genre’s famous composers and what
films classical music was featured in. I also researched the target audience and knew what things
they’re interested in (i.e. Rolex, jewellery, etc.) I also included famous locations that classic music
tend to take place in (i.e. Sydney Opera House). Therefore this helped me to understand more
about the genre of my music magazine and what am I going to include on my magazine pages (for
example, adverts about expensive watches, jewellery, etc.) to grab the attention of the reader.

• I felt I didn’t search well enough as I tried to rush it in the last minute and therefore I think I should
have researched earlier so I could get more accurate and reliable results on my research. However I
did manage to get everything done for this learning outcome.
• I should have also done my corrections earlier than I did.
• In the next learning outcome I should be able to assess locations, risks and legal/ethical issues
relevant my music magazine, finding solutions to any risks or issues identified.
