Questions summary

I think that the least popular choices are the most old fashioned and are related to most music magazines, the popular ones for example there was 6 groups that had over 14 people that voted for it, for example the 'collection of vinyl records' came up to two people but the question 'has a mp3 player' came up to the whole of the class practically. Also the amount of people that s44

Front Page Analysis




The magazine that I am doing is: What Laptop


Colours: The colours that have been used on the magazine are simple but vibrant colours, they are colours that grab your attention straight away, from my perspective I would rather pick up a magazine that stands out to me than a magazine with just grey and black writting.

Font: The font that stands out the most is the masthead, this attracts my attention because of the red background and then the white writting on top, also the fact that it's bold is very eye catching because it's the largest text on the front page.

Images: The images used on the front cover are all technology of course because it's a technology magazine. The main image they have used is the laptop because it is probably their main article in the magazine as the text that's next to it implies that it is a large font and is the seconds largest font on the page.

Magazine Proposal

Magazine Proposal

Learning objective: To review and edit my work to improve my grade

Band 6 - Some will show convincing and clear understanding of the 4 key concepts of Media Studies.

I am proposing a Apple related technology magazine called iMag a bit like the iMac but as it is a magazine it's called 'iMag'. My magazine will hope to achieve more people to buy Apple products, Sign up for the magazine and sell well. My target audience for my magazine is for people intrested in technology and people who are in a good financial state as Apple produicts are quite dear and expensive. My magazine would represent the world by showing everyone how advanced and well they've done in the Apple industry. My magazine will be published by corporate institution, the advantage to this will be that there is a higher chance that it will be more famous then other magazines quicker, but there are disadvantages like you I wouldn't have as much control on the my magazine also I wouldn't get a very good cut of the profit.

My magazine will be unique to others because other magazines talk about all computers but mine just has Apple, so it appeals mostly to Apple so all Apple lover will buy my magazine. Also my there is a good chance that my magazine will be a succsessfull magazine as I did do a poll and 69% of people prefered reading a technology based magazine.

The purpose of magazine would be to let the Apple community know about the best apps, the top 10 iTunes chart, best iPhone deals and the best accesories.

 The audience of my magazine is for Apple and Tech lovers. It's for the people that have Apple products and have a passion for them as well. My magazine is for male and females, all ethinic backgrounds and is also for people in the age group of a young teen to a mature adult (12-50). It will also talk about the events going on in the tech world. Which could range from exciting key-notes, Inspirational idea shows and much more. I will also show this in the magazine by images, language and colours to do with the Apple commuinity. Images of the new products, the vintage old ones and the future based ones. Language with the high-tech vocabulary, the words you've never heard of! Finaly the colours which aren't to easy with Apple as they do use a lot of colours, but I will still try to include the most colours that relate to Apple. These things will appeal to my audience because they will know what to look out for.

Finally my magazine will be successfull because they're a lot of Apple lovers in the world. This makes it easier for my magazine as if people relate to it they would want to buy it. Also the institution  that I've picked is corporate which gives my magazine a better chance on being successfull but I don't have much controll over it. The market research I've done shows that what I've said is true. (Conducting from other tech magazines).
