ANS.... My magazine is more or less like the stereotypical magazine as I had magazine name at the top and a main image for the cover page and the content page is gave the summary of what they are actually going to see inside the magazine.
Q.How does your media product represent particular social groups ?
ANS....My magazine mostly represent the teenagers and maybe some teachers from the college moreover the cover page give a very young and mature look of a six former plus the cover lines are more
Q.What kind of media institute might distribute your media product and why?
ANS......The main institute that would distribute my media would be St Edmund's College as it could be seen from the cover lines of the magazine it is about what is actual going around its campus and the main image on the cover page is of a student from the this college therefore more chances of it publishing it.
Q.Who would be the audience for your media product?
ANS....The target audience for my magazine is aged 14-19 male and female, but with a slight bias to female audience as you could gather from the used of colours ,the main image on the cover page and the pictures on the content page are images of female figures . The content page also to give us the idea that there is a section on the magazine about fashions which are mostly directed to the female population.
ANS.....To attract the audience I had used the advice from my questionnaire and use a picture of a student who they known for my cover page and I also using bright colour to make it more eye catching ,therefore catching more attention. and distributing the is issue for free therefore giving the audience the opportunity to grab one with out having to worry about the cost. keeping in mind that it a student magazine I have used an informal tone while addressing them make it feel more comfortable and chatty this would more entertaining for them to read therefore attracting more audiences.
Q.What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?
ANS.....We were use to introduce and taught different new technologies during this task to start off we started from the:
1. Basis by making a blog on blogger. Then we strated designing our blogs according to our liking and familiarising our self with the new tabs available on it once we got use to the tab and understood how to use the we moved on to posting on our blog.
2. Then we moved on to the next step by learning to use the scanner in order to upload and scan pictures we wanted to used for our blog but they were either of published magazines or already printed pictures and text.
3. we also learn to take pictures from different angles. So with the help of a camera we took pictures for the cover page.
4. After taking the pictures we uploaded it to photo shop to edit and give my magazine the final look. But before we got started we tried different type of effects and tabs on a rough pictures just to get the hang on it. we really did learn allot from here it help to make it help me make a plain picture to a magazine cover.
4. Dafont.com with the help from this web site we used to make the main title cover and the heading for my magazine.
5. After finalising the font I uploaded to Microsoft publisher to give it the final touch before copying and pasting it to photo shot to give the final look for my magazine
6. But all this would not have been possible with out learning how to use the computer and the Internet . We learn how to use different tabs off the key board example the print screen key was very help full for this task.but overall we have learn a great deal and also different ways decorate our magazine.
