Magazine front cover - Learner response

Magazine front cover - Learner response


1) 


2) Mark: 9
Grade: C

WWW: Excellent border and masthead – the cover looks like Time magazine at first glance which is important. I also like the main flash – ‘Out with the old…’ The way the cover image goes over the Time title also shows technical expertise.

EBI: There are inconsistencies on the cover – the text is weaker. The font at the very bottom does not look appropriate for Time magazine at all and you also have inconsistencies in the use of italics. The image itself is a little overexposed – the lighting is not quite right. If you can add this consistency, attention to detail and a professional edge you will certainly be pushing towards the higher grades.

3) My magazine cover had satisfactory knowledge used in order to use combination of elements to communicate clear meanings of the product.

4) I should have made the picture's lighting less bright and use consistent fonts an typography for the magazine but also the typography and fonts that Time Magazine themselves would use for the cover magazine. Also, use different headers for different sections of the magazine to make it appear more realistic and as if it really is a real magazine cover.

5) Have more than on photo, so if you choose the magazine you have more than option to pick which doesn't decrease your choices.

Mise en Scene analysis

 Mise en scene analysis In this still image you see a man in a bus. The costume the man is wearing a black jacket, the colour black represented mystery, evil and death which can foreshadow what happens later to the man clarifying the shocked look on his face. In the image, the lighting is bright however as you move further away from the man it becomes blurry and harder to see. The blurring could link to how the character feels confused and astonished. The actor  in the image has a frightened and terrified expression on his face showing that he is terrified and is a state of panic and fear and also he is in a hunched position so that he can be avoid being seen which shows that he is uneasy, timid and reserved.  It looks like the character has dark rings underneath his eyes which could be the result of make-up which shows how the character is restless and is in a state of discomfort and uneasiness. The prop the character is holding is a pink jacket which he uses to hide and c

Oh Comely Industry

Oh Comely Industry 1) Iceberg was set up because they believe in the power of the printed word and of the owners believes that lots of magazines have given up on their readers. 2) The mission statement for Iceberg is: It's all about the audience.

News Story 3 1 ) https://www.dailymail.news.uk/news/article-6232587/Knifeman-goes-rampage-stabs-commuters-east-London-train.html Knifeman 'goes on the rampage' on London train and stabs one person putting Hackney Central station on lockdown. 2)   3) I would consider this news story hard news as hard news tends to talk about politics, war , economics and crime and this would be considered crime. Also, the website uses a factual approach in which they explain the events and what happened . This also talks about a serious topic which is a knife man going on rampage which causing three people to be hurt and because of this I would consider this hard news. 4) This might appeal to an audience as it uses Familiarity and Surprise. Familiarity is used as it the incident occurred in the Hackney which is in the UK causing the audience who are predominantly UK readers to be effected more as it is closer to them. Surprise is used as this incident is indeed a surprise whic
