Here are some adverts that I can include in my magazine. I believe they fit appropriately with my target audience as they’re from Ariana Grande’s perfume product and Dua Lipa who are singers that are extremely popular with teenage girls. I found that these adverts were the most suitable to use in my own magazine because they are light toned colours like my own magazine but also are very eye-catching to my young teenage girl target audience.
I chose this Ariana Grande perfume advert for my music magazine as she is an inspiring young pop artists which many of my target audience love and listen to regularly. The advertisement fits in with the colours and themes I chose in my magazine but looks different for the readers eye and contains interesting fonts and images that will attract.
I also chose this Dua Lipa performance advertistement as she is another artist that my target audience love and listen to and would be interested in seeing in a magazine. Dua Lipa’s fashion is also appreciated by my target audience so they will be more drawn into the magazine and buying future copies if she is included.
To conclude, I appreciate this isn’t going to be marked but for the purposes of presentation, having an extra page in the magazine helped make the Flipsnack platform work better. However, it was an interesting exercise in reaffirming that I know who exactly my target audience, young teenage girls, and can prove I know what adverts this audience would be interested in seeing if they were buying a pop music magazine.
Here is my new improved magazine draft that I have completed after listening to my teacher’s past feedback.
My teachers last improvements she believes I need to make are:
FRONT PAGE
CONTENTS PAGE
DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD
These are my complete drafts for my music magazine as they still have a few improvements that my teacher has set for me to change so I can be happy with my finished designs.
This is the screen castify my teacher completed for me so that I know what amendments and improvements to make to my music magazine to make it as successful as possible.
These are the improvements my teacher set:
In the process of creating, researching, and portraying my intended narrative the work of my music magazine, I have learnt and developed many new transferrable skills. For example the skills I have learnt are:
From completing my drafts for my pop music magazine. I’ve learnt many new design skills and production techniques in the process of improving my drafts to make them successful. Although there were still some skills I would of loved to perfect, I am still happy with the ones I have developed as I believe they are adding to my magazine and making it as best as possible. I used many tools from the image below including:
A new tool I used to add some features to my magazine was the rectangle tool (shown in image above). I used this to make certain areas that looked empty on my magazine more interesting to fill the space. In these rectangle boxes I included quotes and captions to make them more bold to the reader. To make these boxes look more subtle I turned the opacity of them down so the images underneath were still visible, which made them fit in as they looked apart of the shot.
A skill that would of been good to develop would be how to remove shadows from the models faces. This is because from my original shoot I had an image that I wanted to use for my front cover, however there was a shadow on the model’s neck and face from the jacket she was wearing. Even after trying many methods to remove it because there was too many shades in that area that I had to match, I was not successful on making it look perfect and decided to use another image. But I am still pleased with the image I used for my front cover as it portrays the star image successfully, similarly to the image I originally chose.
Overall, I believe that all my new skills and techniques have helped me in the productions of my magazine. From these skills I have managed to create my successful star image of confident models and portrayed the music genre of pop to my target audience.
Here is my new improved contents page which is complete of all my own personal targets. However, I recordered a conversation with my peer asking questions about my contents page to make more improvements to make it as successful as it can.
This is my peer assessment for my feedback on my new improved draft of my contents page.
