1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
My magazine uses the F and Z model on each page which is used in every magazine we buy these days, I also looked at the types of fonts and colours they use in magazines and used a few on mine like a white background with black text on it which stands out to the readers. I use a lot of photos of the band im using so the readers can see what there style of fashion is and how simple they look but it works well with the audience there going for. On the double spread page we use three columns to make the article look neat and easy for the readers to read with a whole page of a picture of the band so it gives the reader more idea who there reading about. The contents page numbers out each page and gives you a bit of information about what your going to read about so you can see if you like the magazine before you buy it. The front cover uses a big blown up picture showing the band and there main features as its just there face and shoulders you see with bold lettering for there name and the title of the magazine which would fit in with the media market as mainly magazines are set out like this just a few things are different to get more of an audience.
2. How does your media product represent particular social groups?
My product mainly represents teenagers who want to know about the new types of bands and singers coming into the industry at the minute as there is always new up coming singers that people don't know about but with this magazine it will give you up dates on what's new in music and will target teens who are into new different sounds. It will open up many peoples eyes to how you start off becoming a singer and will inspire the teenagers out there wanting to get into the music industry which will give them tips on how to do so. Also the type of clothing is geeky but stylish and only suits certain people which will get the eye of this social group we're going for and making them more interested in the style were approaching.
3. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
The kind of magazine I was going for was the NME style magazine as it is bold and uses the kind of music genre im going for in my magazine. Also DAZED magazine inspired me to as it uses neutral colours that im going for in my magazine as it works best with the models im using. The way they layout their pages are how I wanted mine and inspired me to mix it up a bit and make my magazine plain so people buy it for what's inside but also catches your eye as its different to other magazines in the market by using neutral colours but making some brighter than others on key features so it stands out on the page, like the two magazines iv chosen which inspire me to make mine.
4. Who would be the audience for your media product?
My product mainly represents teenagers from the age of 14-18 as its a simple design on the front cover and uses the kind of language teens would use which relates with their life style also the kind of clothing iv used on my models represents teenagers too and in the magazine I talk about fashion as this is one of the biggest subjects teenagers are into and look up to artists for their style of clothing. Also the type of magazine it is would interest all the age group im going for as we like to stay up to date on who's new in the music industry and who's good or not so good as we don't like to be left out on gossip, which teenagers are all about.
5. How did you attract/address your audience?
I attracted my audience by using neutral colours also making part bright which will stand out and catch my audiences eyes also I used bold black text for headings and master heads so you know what your reading about at the time. The band im using wear the kind of style my audience would wear and also would bring new and different audiences as it has a bit of a unique style to it. I addressed my audience by using the type of language they use and understand, not using any difficult big words they might not understand. In the article and through the magazine I use quotes from the band so the audiences feel like they know the band and get to know about what they've done to get to the stage there out which will interest the teenagers.
6. What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?
The photo shop I went on to make my magazine cover, contents and double spread pages was hard as iv only used it a few times before and to make the picture the style and colour you want it by changing the back ground colour can be hard. Putting fonts onto the magazine wasn't hard but trying to find the style font you wanted and that would go well with the magazine you were going for was hard and took time, also to make it to the size I wanted so it would cover the top of the page. It a very creative technologies and can make your magazine look very unique and different to others in my class but you have to spend a lot of time working on it to get it to the best of you abilities as it can be tricky to use. It can divide the pages into grids which makes it easier to layout the page as it gives you guide lines on where to go and you can count the space your using for text boxes and then do it again to make it all equal and look right.
7. Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?
A lot of my ideas have change and became stronger for the type of magazine im doing, also my article was easy to do as I knew the band I was going to talk about and the type of genre there music was which fitted in with my magazine. Iv had to changed a few things like the pictures im doing to get the best finishing effect on my models so it works well with them and will still fit in with the front cover I want to do. By doing my draft magazine I can see the thing I still want to change and certain bits I think work well with the style im going for, also hearing back from the teachers gives me more ideas on what to do and lets me know if they understand what kind of magazine im going for and if there not sure I can change parts to make sure they understand completely what style of music my magazine is. Id do this by changing the layout and pictures also colours as they describe everything about my magazine.
