• In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

The key ingredients of a student magazine would include catchy cover lines to lure the reader in, bright and interesting photograph, clear and clear layout and my mode of address toward my target audience which is the teenager making the magazine informal and laid back. I have included these ingredients to follow basic guide lines but I have also put my own stamp on the student magazine by researching into some of the cover lines and I have taken my own photographs to make the student magazine that more unique than other student magazines. I have used the traditional conventions of a magazine into mine but I have changed as I have said before, researching into cover lines and taken my own photographs. I have pushed the boundaries of the conventional magazine cover.

• How does your media product represent particular social groups?

My student magazine (media product) has represented the particular social group of students/ teenagers; I have represented this particular social group by taking photographs of students and including stories which would have been of interested to that age group. The language which I have included in my magazine is informal and laid back to more accessible for a wider audience.

• What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

The kind of media institution which would distribute my student magazine would be the college however I would have to change a few assets of my magazine to make it more appealing towards the students and would eventually become more popular taking over the normal student magazine displayed.

• Who would be the audience for your media product?

My audience for the student magazine would teenagers aged between 16 and 19 years old, it would be suitable for both genders and the general profile of my audience would appeal to a wider audience taking a wider variety of courses at college.

• How did you attract/address your audience?

I have attracted/ addressed my target audience by using language which my audience would understand. Pictures, cover lines and contents page are used to attract students by having photographs of students, I use cover lines to lure the audience into buying the media product. I have used the font for my title because it reflects the student life.

• What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

The technologies I have learnt about while in the process of constructing this product are the use of digital cameras and Corel paint shop pro x; I have learnt to use these technologies by knowing how to edit photographs and taking good photographs at good angles.
