- 1. Proposal 1 Working Title: What is it called? This can change if you think of something better later Audience: The demographic Iam trying to appeal is to be the 13-19-age range and my audience will be specifically male.This will be like an 80% male and 20% female. My projectwill appeal to this age range because I will include informal language and also include information theywould wantto hear.Another reason why the targeted age will be interested in my magazine is because Iwill include several images ofmusic artists. The audience teenagers Iam trying to appeal to will also be those who convey to the urban theme.The teenager demographic Iam trying to appeal to will also be those who enjoy listening to music and are more interested within that than other random people.These will be people with interests like going to gigs,alreadybuy magazines related to music and also those who buyalbums. My audience for my other potential product that is merchandise will be slightlydifferent. The audience will still be the male demographic and will also be the same age range.The only slightdifferentwill be that they will have slightlydifferent level of interests.One different level of interestthey will have is that for my merchandise theywill be very interested in streetwear brands such as supreme and palace.My merchandise Iam trying to create will be within this area. My audience I am trying to target are more interested in this because theyare mostlikely people to buy this. For my product as a whole the social status I am going to try and target will be those of middle class.This is because they are going to have to pay for the magazine or the merchandise to read them.The social status for this is going to be middle class also because higher class people are notusuallyassociated with informal music magazines and theyhave connotations such as posh,wealth and also formal.All of these things will not be included within mymagazine.Lower class people will notbe targeted as they are usuallyassociated with connotations such as poor and rough.The psychographic Iam trying to target for my magazine and my merchandise will be those ofwhich are balanced,this is because theyare not trying to achieve anything whilstreading or buying merchandise.The purpose ofmy project is to entertain the audience whilstlooking good. Rationale (approx. 100 words) Throughout the year I have found the rotations helpful. This was because I got to see what I really liked and what I didn’t like as much. The rotation I liked the most was when we were doing print. This is because I felt like the research and the other power points went very well and set me up for production the best out of the 3 rotations. This was because I felt that it was the easiest for me too look and analyse magazine covers and double page spreads, this was also because I enjoyed them the most. The skills I have learnt from this is that by looking at possibly 3 similar products no matter what area you can start to recognize specific conventions. I also learnt many skills during production those of which will be used in this product. These are those in Photoshop. The one process I have learnt in Photoshop and will be used in this was to remember to line up my tech and the images. Using the ruler tool does this. Project Concept (approx. 200 words) The possible products I am going to create are possibly 3 issues for the same brand of magazine. This will be my own name of magazine. Some examples of magazines names are NME and Billboard. The concept of this is to create and aesthetically looking product which will appeal to the audience. This will be done by including bright colours and including the conventions of magazines. These are things such as a masthead; cover lines and also some headings. The magazine covers will also feature a double page spread. The concept for this is to include relevant information that conveys to the genre type, for example I am making a music magazine so I will include music articles. This is because this is what the audience want and also because this is a convention. The double page spread will also be laid out in a readable manor. By this I mean it will be set out so that the audience can easily read it. The colours included will be colours that do not stand out to much. This is because I will most likely included white or black text so I will need to include colours that create a contrast against the text. Another product I plan to create will be some merchandise for the magazine. This will be similar to Thrasher magazine. This is in the sense that I will create a magazine and will include merchandise based of the, magazine masthead weather this is a logo or possibly the name. These will be colours of clothing, which appeal to my target audience and also are aesthetically pleasing to look at. This is because people don’t want to buy clothes that don’t look good. For this I will also conduct some advertising weather this just be for the merchandise or possibly both the magazine and the merchandise as a whole. The research I will have to conduct will be to look at existing product. This will help me, as I will be able to identify the possible conventions. These are elements that I will also want to include. This is because it will make my magazine look more professional.
- 2. Proposal 2 What is the concept for your project and what are you going to make? What research will you need to conduct and how will it help you make your project/ Evaluation (approx. 50 words) I plan to evaluate my work by taking screenshots of my production and also the research I have conducted. From this I will be able to look at and compare this to exiting products. Another way I will do this is to get peoples opinions. Myself conducting and sending out a survey could do this by peer feedback or possibly. This will give me an Idea of what I need to include or change. How do you plan to evaluate the work? Reference conducting on-going evaluation and your final self-reflection, analysing your work and its outcomes.
