Production Report
Section one – Brief and research
For this project my task was to create a few pages of a new magazine aimed at teenagers aged 13-19 years old, of either or both sexes. I needed to include a front page and a double page spread, with at least 3 original images. To begin with I researched the forms and conventions of magazines in the media. I found out a lot about the layout of the magazines, for example, a lot of magazines all have the same basic layout, which is often repeated throughout all major genres of magazines. After researching the forms and conventions of magazines in general, I then went on to research other details of magazines that would influence my decisions later on in the planning

These enabled me to have a rough idea of the type of magazine that I wanted and the type of look it would have that would attract my target audience. Once I had come up with the planning I had to organise my time effectively so as I was able to get everything done in time, and I could keep track of everything. To keep my organisation of time I created a production log. This was a small notebook in which I wrote down the dates of every time I did some of the magazine work. Underneath the date I jotted down what work I had done, how far I had got with it and what I had to complete next time and set myself some work to do. This assured me that every thing would be done, giving me a little time to spare to check things over.
Section 3 – Construction
My production would be very successful and popular with the market in the final production. I think this because I feel that my magazine has a distinctive appearance and fills a gap in the market, by using cross-genre. I did this buy doing research of genres, and finding that two of the most popular with my audience are both gossip and fashion/style magazines. So I have decided to create a magazine which is using a lot of aspects from both these genres of magazines, to create something that will bring in the readers of both these types of genres, making the magazine audience a lot wider, as they can get the same amount of information from just the one magazine rather than going out
I think the hardest part of this assignment is making sure that the article that I am translating to reflects the characteristics of the actual genre. Although this was initially challenging, I was able to overcome these confusion by studying more about both the magazine article and the scientific journal and analyzing the writing conventions that each of these genres have. By studying more about the genres and actually translating the piece myself, I was able to get a deeper understanding of the writing choices and the purpose of these two genres. As mentioned in Kerry Dirk’s “Navigating Genres” article, each genre has certain characteristics or conventions that define them (Dirk, 258). This assignment helped me understand the choices that authors made in these two genres in order to attract their own target audience and purpose. For example, I learned that entertainment articles like to use words such as “shocking” and “exclusive news” because they are trying to attract readers while scientific journals prefer less of this. In addition to using Dirk’s “Navigating Genres” article, I also used Mike Bunn’s “How to Read Like a Writer” article to help me in this translating process. As explained by Bunn, when we read like a writer, we identify some of the choices that the authors made so then we could have better understanding of how such choices might appear in our own writing (Bunn, 22). By learning how to read like a writer and applying it to reading the original article, I was able to notice the choices that she had made and decide which parts of it that I would want to keep for the new translated
While negotiating the brief I had to deliberate on the intended audience, the purpose and the genre markers inherent in my trailer. The trailer will be set in a haunted asylum, three film students will investigate the mental hospital to dismiss the rumours in a documentary format, it of course turns out the rumours are true and the trio need to try and escape the asylum with their lifes still intact. I chose the unisex young adult market for my trailer, persons aged 15 to 25. I also had to decide on what genre markers would be present in my trailer. The trailer is of course an advertisement and it's main purpose is to get the viewers to go and see the full release of the film in cinemas.
The story goes about marriage, love, career with their solutions. Also some of the magazines are a questionnaire that discovers after you completed what person u are etc. A magazine i can always some tips and tricks about how to be confident, to look good and how to learn better. On a magazine I find pictures of famous people with their life stories such as how they become rich and famous from nothing. How they develop them self to do everything to meet their dreams and what strategy they used. In a magazine i can read lot information’s about how to make money, where to invest in and how i can safe and control it.
I chose anime for my magazine Because it could have its’s benefits, it’s unique and not manny GCSE students will think about using anime, therefore, it will be unique and different than all of the other students, i personally think that the use of anime is mainly to be different and to stand out in the gcse marking bored and i want to show them that there is more to magazines; anime magazines are mainly found in Japan and not in the UK. in the Uk’s the most popular magazines are about beauty and new top trends so I wanted my magazine to be different to all the other students and create a Japanese top anime type of magazine because it will most definitely stand-out when marking.
The first text that I analyzed, which is Nikki’s portfolio, I decided that the audience could be anyone that either enjoys photography or maybe her future employers. Her purpose was to create an “eye” to see her character’s world and experiences. The audience doesn’t need much to understand the material, because I believe art could be interpreted in different ways. The best that people can do, is to assume what she truly meant. I also believe that the strategy she mainly used was inspiration, because it allowed people to see other people’s story, so they might want to share their own. Which could lead to a better understanding of the different characters in the country.
Before beginning this internship at BMF media, I came up with two different evaluation proposals. These were certain ways to prove that I accomplished my goals. My first evaluation was in terms of my goal that was to participate and plan an event to tell a story for the client. The tangible evidence I stated that I would submit will be documentation of the process of planning the event along with photos and outcomes of the event through social media.
What steps and tasks will I have to complete? First I will have to find a system that will work best for myself, and I will also have to find time every month to sit down and make my schedule. What is my plan to complete these steps? I really like the Ideal of starting bullet journal like the one you showed us in class! I have begun looking on Pinterest at beginners ones, and have bought a sketch book and colors markers. I plan to wake up early the next few days and work on it at least one hour ever morning. What are my deadlines? I want to have a complete schedule for the month of November by next week! What talents do I have that will help with the project? I’m an outside of the box thinker and can be good with a time-consuming task when I enjoy them! What do I need help with? I think the one thing I would definitely need help on would have to be getting started with bullet
This crazy idea to design and create a whole magazine was blossomed on the 7/7/16, when Mary had an idea to make a one page article about, "Is Yana lying about being a year 10 or not?" That was when Mary thought it would be a wicked idea to just make a whole magazine, because why not? Mary shared her idea to Carly, and so the day after that, the two of them started the MANSAE MAGAZINE! Since then on.. They've been adding many pages
I consider myself to be analytical and I believe that this will help with the editorial area because I can visualize and articulate ideas that will help with the magazine I will be assigned to. The position of being an editorial intern excites me because I love the idea of being part of a team that loves media and published works as much as I do. I love the idea of publishing because books and magazines have the power to impact and change a person’s life and that is something that I want to be a part of. Books have been one of the most influential parts of my life and I want to make a difference in someone’s life like another person did to
Conventionally, although selling the magazine, the front cover doesn’t give away too much about the content of the magazine. Cover lines are typically vague and may use rhetorical questions or quotes to attract attention. This method again encourages people to buy the magazine and read it. I have done this on my own front page with a rhetorical question. My front page is also jam-packed with information, as you would expect from
Since magazines have been around for hundreds of years now, many types of magazines have developed and changed through the years. Regional editions of magazines are when the content of the magazine is specifically customized for different geographic locations while still being a national magazine. Split-run editions are when the content remains the same inside the magazine, but there are ads from near-by companies. Demographic editions of magazines are made specifically for a certain group of buyers.
The reason for choosing to do a magazine cover on The Vampire Diaries was because I have an interest in the topic.
