Initial Research

I carried out Research to find some of the main Conventions and features that were on Music Magazines.I looked at six front covers, six content pages and six double page spreads. I had a look at three different magazines. Mojo, Classic rock and Kerang.

ResearchWhy was research usefulWhat was I looking for

Research was useful because by doing it, it meant that I knew what kind of things I could use on my Music Magazine. I could find conventions from other Music Magazines and then use these in my Music Magazine.

I was looking for anything that was conventional. These are things that appear on Music Magazines consistently. I will know talk about things that I found and what I was looking for.

Things FoundBy doing this Research it helped me to find lots of different Conventions and important things that should be included in a Music Magazine.

I need to find the best distributor for my Magazine. I need a distribution company that already distributes similar magazines, that distribute to the similar audiences and also that are of a similar genre.

BAUERI found that Bauer are probably the best distributors for my Magazine. This is because from doing some previous research into the distribution company they meet certain criterias:Sell to a multinational audienceOperate in 16 CountriesPublish monthly in UKProvide Magazines that are suitable for Male and FemalePublish Indie Content (MOJO)

The reason why BAUER is suitable:

I want my Music Magazine to be sold to a multinational/ International audience. This means that a mass audience will be introduced to the Magazine. Also the content will attract people here but also abroad. I want both a Male and Female audience for my Magazine. This is because my Magazine was designed for both genders. Both Genders will have an interest in the Content of the Magazine. I want my Magazine to be a monthly addition. BAUER produce Magazines in Monthly editions.

Target AudienceAppeal to both Male and FemaleAges 15-24Fans of the Indie classic rock genre

AudienceWhile making my Music Magazine I did some Target Market Research. This was so that my Music Magazine was appropriate and would actually appeal to an audience.

This is someone filling out a Survey. This means that I can find out what it was that is wanted from my Magazine.

TechnologyI have learnt a lot about new Media Technologies and these have made the Magazine easier to make.

Camera

This Flash helped to add Light into my Photos.This is the button that I used to actually take the Photos. This is what I used to change the Shutter Speed, Exposure and the Aperture.

This is the part where I checked and edited the focusThis is the part where I changed the distance of the imageLens

SoftwaresPhotoshop:

PowerPoint:

I was able to learn how to use different Softwares that would help make my Magazine look better and more Professional. I used Photoshop on all of my Images as well as my Barcode that I made. PowerPoint was used to make the Evaluation. This was good because it helped to present the project effectively and also professionally. It also allowed me to

To make my Presentation look consistent I used a Master Slide to put the Magazine name in the top corner.

SoftwaresIN Design:

I learnt how to use Adobe IN Design. This was used to actually design the Music Magazine itself. IN Design was useful because it came with a lot of features which made designing of a Magazine easier and more efficient. Blogger:

Blogger was very useful throughout the project. This is because I was able to use it to actually record exactly what it was I was doing throughout the project. This meant that people would know how I was getting on while designing the Music Magazine.

What I have LearntI have learnt a lot since designing the Preliminary School Magazine. By doing this Preliminary Task I leant how to frame a shot. This was important because a Medium-Close up was hard to get but I was able to capture a good one after having so much goes. I was also able to learn different Magazine Layouts that make the Magazine look good. I also learnt how to use different Media software's for the first time. Learn what a Music Magazine actually is.
