Research And Planning - Test Shots












The top 5 are the pictures which I took outisde on the Slr Camera's. You can tell I took them outside as the colour and the image is very clear and it has no yellow blurs on it. These pictures are better than taking them inside as the photo's are not very clear inside.

The bottom 5 have been took inside with the same camera. The pictures are all very blurred and not very clear. They also have a yellow faded colour across the image which makes it look not as clear as the ones I took outside.

Research&Planning-Podcast



This is a short podcast of what we have done so far in Media.

Research&Planning-Contents page analysis




This contents page is from an issue of We Love This Pop.

Gender- The gender for this magazine would be both male and female but mainly focused on female attention as One Direction are on this contents page which is usually associated with females. But also there are Una Healey and Vanessa White within this page, which is why it could also be associated with males.

Age- The age range for this magazine would be 13-16 as the Singers used are usually based with that age gap, for example One Direction are usually associated with young girls/teenagers.

Genre- The genre for this magazine is Pop, as it is clearly stated within the Magazine name as it is called 'We Love this Pop'. You can also tell as the singers used are Pop singers from the pop genre. Also as the colours used are very bright and colourful, some what 'pop' colours. These colours are associated with a pop genre as the colours are very bright which are usually used in other type of Pop magazines.

Represenation- This magazine is represented very well as it shows the audience they are trying to target with the image, the colours and the layout of the magazine. It shows how it is a very basic double page spread but it gives of an effect as it is not to 'busy'. There is quite a lot of colours used but they are not to 'bright' which may cause the page to be to busy. The colours are very simple and they all blend in well together which gives of a basic effect.

Layout- There are quite a few shot types within this contents page but the main one is a medium shot of the 5 boys in One Direction. You can see from their waist above which gives an effect as you base your attention on them. Another shot type is a close up on eye level of Taylor Launther, this shows his facial expressions which is also effective. The shot type is quite effective as you can see there facial expressions which shows there emotions. Also the colours usesd a very basic colours but also colours which are realated to a pop genre, bluefor example.The spread is very simple, and so it is appropriate to those who may read it, meaning the article will be read and people will pay attention to it. The fonts used are very similar which means the magazine does not look to busy.

Interest- The main interest of this magazine would be people with an interest of the main people on the contents page and also people who have an interest within the music industry.

Research&Planning-Double page analysis




Age- The age for this magazine would probably be 13-16 year old's as Cher Lloyd is on the page and that is the age range her music is aimed at. I would aim this magazine at this age range as it is a Pop Magazine which is usually realated to younger people/teenagers as they are more interested in Pop than the elders. Also as the colours used a very bright and colourful which gives of the impression it is for this age gap. The items within the magazine is appropriate for that age range also.

Gender- The gender for this magazine would probably be both genders but mainly female as Cher Lloyd is mainly targeting girls. Also as the colours of the writing is in pink colours which are mainly based with females which makes it mainly a female target based magazine.

Layout- The shot type of this magazine is a long shot as you can see all of Cher Lloyd's body and the detail within her body expressions. The shot type is quite effective as you can see her facial expressions which shows her emotions. The layout it very simple as there is only 3 colours used which means they have stuck to the 'three colour rule' which shows they are professional with their magazines. Also the colours usesd a very basic colours but also colours which are realated to a pop genre, pink for example.The spread is very simple, and so it is appropriate to those who may read it, meaning the article will be read and people will pay attention to it. The fonts used are very similar which means the magazine does not look to busy. The image is fairly large which means it the focus of attention which people will draw their eyes straight too, this shot is a long shot,

Representation- This magazine is represented very well as it shows the audience they are trying to target with the image, the colours and the layout of the magazine. It shows how it is a very basic double page spread but it gives of an effect as it is not to 'busy' as the colours used a very simple and they stick to the same 3 without the two pages.

Interest- The main interest for this magazine would be people who have an interest for Cher Lloyd and the other people who are included in this magazine. Also people who have an interest within the music industry.
