-Photography

A 'GoAnimation' of two characters discussing what I have learnt by using new software such as Photoshop and how I have developed my skills. I used 'GoAnimation' because it's a new and cool software that not many people have used before. Therefore, no-one would get bored by watching it and it would be rather interesting for them to see.

Question 1 - Prezi - EVALUATION

http://prezi.com/fpzsopizad6q/?utm_campaign=share&utm_medium=copy&rc=ex0share

My Prezi on answering ''In what ways does my media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?'' which includes:

-Similarities on how different my front cover, contents page and double page spread is compared to Hard Rock, which is another music magazine of the same genre.

-Differences on how different my front cover, contents page and double page spread is compared to Hard Rock, which is another music magazine of the same genre.

Front Cover - Preliminary Task

I got the task of designing a new front cover for sixth form and this is what I come up with. I decided early on that I would have the main heading as a big, bold heading in the colour black. Also, I changed the colour of the other two texts as it gives it a good look in my opinion. The photo in the background is of Jacob and Mae, both St Mark's sixth form students who are happily doing their work. The title is also in big writing so it stands out and it gives it a great effect.

Two of the actors used for my photoshoot in my music magazine

This is George Harvey, one of the band members of the band The Nutters. In my double page spread, I have produced a fact file for each and every band member, but this is a photo of George just to notify you all who he is! 

This is my 2nd actor, Sean Martin. He was the main band member at the start of the photo shoot but I soon changed that so all four members were equal. 

Photos of myself using Powtoon & Prezi - EVALUATION

In this first photo, I am seen editing my Powtoon that I made for one of the evaluation questions. I used Powtoon to see how much the audience would pay for my magazine, how my magazine could attract the audience and what gender my magazine might attract more. 

Secondly, I am seen here using Prezi. I used Prezi to produce another question of the evaluation and I was editing it to make sure that it was 100% complete. I have used Prezi all throughout the year so I know how to use it, but it was just a case of what to type in the boxes. 

The venue where I shot the photos for my music magazine

This may seem very bland and boring but with the black & white colour I put on the brick wall, it proved very effective. I had lined up the band members against this wall as I believed that it was a perfect setting as nothing major was in the way that was off-putting. 

This is another photo of the setting. As you can see, it wasn't just a boring brick wall. It was indeed right outside the Sixth Form block.

Photos of myself using Photoshop and editing each piece

I am editing my final piece for my double page spread. Since creating the draft for my magazine, I have added different colours, added an image, added more text and added a heading too.

Editing photos (used/not used) - Photos of Sean.

These are four of the images that I had taken of Sean, one of the band members.

I didn't use all of them, whether it was because the setting was right or Sean's emotions were appropriate. 

These four different images all show different camera angles, whether it be a medium shot or a long distance shot. It all depended on the setting and the type of image that I was looking for. 

Also, these four images show the variety of different types of images, as Sean is seen in Photo 1 playing the drums, whereas the 2nd Photo is posing for the camera whilst staring down at the lens in front of the wall. Thirdly, the image scenery is back to the instruments room, but this time Sean is playing the guitar but I didn't go with the image because of his emotion - I didn't think that it was appropriate. Lastly, Sean is doing the same thing as Photo 2 but this time, he's seen standing up against the wall so this is a long-shot as it's a photo of his whole body, not just his face. He is seen to have suave by his casual look. 

What my plan was for the music magazine

- To organise a meet-up with my band members in order to take photographs of them
- To create drafts of my music magazine so I could make late changes if needed
- To decide who my intended audience were so the audience would like it more
- Photos of editing
- Look at current rock music magazines online/shops and think about how mine could be different/similar

Research - Front Cover of all Rock magazines

These are a whole list of rock magazines that gave me a good idea of how to design mine. The text types, the text font, the images, the colours, the side-headings and the extra information all played a part in helping me decide which rock magazine I would go along with.
