Evaluation Question 2 How did you represent social groups?


This is an audience video i made showing the social groups i was trying to represent. For this i used final cut express to make the video and garage band to make the music i then imported into final cut express for my video. Looking at images like the ones in this video and videos similar to it helped me demonstrate how i represented these different social groups within my product. I showed images of stereotypical stereotypes, the bands an artists they listen too and the clothes they wear.

Evaluation Question 1 In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

Double page spread

I have edited my double page spread a switched the images around and changed the lighting on one so they  are roughly the same lighting. I have also increased the scale by 5% so they are both roughly the same level and i personally think it looks more professional like this. 

This what my double page spread looks like now. I think this is how i am going to leave it i really like this the only difference i may make is to put a quote from the article to personalise it more. 


This is a screen shot i have taken  of me editing the scale of my pictures in InDesign, in the picture you can also see that i have a photoshop window open aswell.

My magazine so far.

This is my contents and front cover at the moment i am still goiing to make a few changes to them both. I am quite happy with how my front cover looks at the moment, i have added more pictures and more features so it is more apparent what genre of music my magazine is - have aimed for a rock/indie style of music magazine.

 
I like the DPS but for my pictures i'm going to try and make the background the same colour so it does show as much.

Rough Cut - Double Page Spread And Feedback

My feedback for my DPS was obviously to finish it but they liked the colour scheme. As i didn't have much to show there wasn't really a great deal of comments made on my double page spread.

Rough Cut - Contents Page And Feedback


My feedback for my contents page was to finish it, remove the 'page' add page numbers, add more images and add more colour. I have taken this on board and changed it. 

Rough Cut - Front Cover And Feedback

This is the first draft of the front cover of my magazine. 
My feedback for this was good. I was told to add a skyline which i now have, i was told that they liked the colours i had used and the text i used. I was told to add more images which i have. 
They also said i needed to add more selllines and more pictures.
Good fonts
Need more features.
