Question 8

Question 7

Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?

In hindsight I believe if I had the knowledge of the programs I have been using during my task so Photoshop as well as InDesign as at GCSE I did not really use Photoshop as I did not do Design or Graphic art which from some of my other classmates gave me disadvantage at the start of the year but the one thing that helped me use it better is I used a trial and error system just taking a normal photo and adding effects or cropping it so that it was easier later or in the production of my magazine.

Question 6

What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

I have learnt a lot about InDesign and also learnt how to make my product as appealing as possible. For example I learnt how to over lay certain aspects so where I have put my main photo over the title and how it goes over certain parts of text. I also enhanced some of the skills I had already which helped my product look ‘professional’ not ‘something that had been made by a media AS student’

Question 5

How did you attract/address your audience?

I have attracted my target audience by putting aspects such as a guide in the magazine for festivals and concerts that are the best parts of music and it’s proven that the vast majority of all music lovers enjoy concerts and festivals as well as any other type of live music. I also attracted my target audience by adding aspects such as the new bands/rejuvenated which will help my promote my magazine as if people like the bands they see in here or like the music they make or have made in the past.

Question 4

Who would be the audience for your media product?

The target audience I have decided to promote my product to is the middle class and really people who like the genre of music(indie rock) as well as people who are a bit outrageous people due to the who genre and what it stands for. So my target audience are mainly males aged 12-18 that like indie rock music as well as going to concerts and festivals as that is something the magazine focuses on.

Question 3

What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

I think from the research I had done before and during my task about the sort of instantiations there are I believe that the one I will use to promote and distribute my product is time inc who are also known as IPC media which distribute the NME magazine which I have based most of my products on. So that is the sole reason I would chose this specific institution.
