my preliminary task!


points that need to be mentioned;

*It's small size, I decided to make it an easier size so it would be able to fit in students bag.
*Fonts are in handwriting styles.
* Black and white close up of a person studying- studying is a key aspect to good grades and tips on this is vital for some students.
* Most students age range from 11-18 like Starbucks, with free vouchers this would be banned to attract sales.
*SCH!-Colloquial,text language etc.


Points worth mentioning.
* Editor's letter-personal.
* Starbucks logo, makes readers remember that free vouchers are included.
* Fact File of a student.
* University & higher education, most students are very concerned about this.
* This week special column.
* Capital 'FREE's with page references.
*These are just some of the main points, others are obvious when looking at the magazine.

*This was created on publisher using a template from the mac programme I web.

Choosing images.

When looking back at my research I noticed that a mid shot or long shot is mostly used on magazine front covers, contents and double page spreads. Choosing photos was key as I wanted to ensure that my magazine looked as professional as possible and would relate to my target audience.

As my target audience was predominantly those who are still in some form of education, which was one of my reasons for my 'artist' was dressed in a uniform etc so it could relate to them. When taking my photos I made sure that they were taken in a simple but effective position.

E.g
This photo was taken in the 6th form library. Interestingly this was taken when I was 'playing around' with the camera so i could get used to it and it's functions. Straight away, after it was taken I knew that I would use this one as I like the informality of it, how my friend is simply leaning on the wall relaxed.

Composition of my magazine in stages.

Development of ideas.


















I thought I would have a music download rather than a free CD as this meets my target audience requirements, as more than 90% of my audience have access to the internet at home, a download would be more suitable since it is this form of consumption that is become largely dominant.




The V festival is a popular events and normally in the upcoming months to this event, other popular magazines such as NME have the V festival line ups, so my having the 'inside scoop' which a event very popular with my audience would have my magazine more favourable.
