Final Post

This concludes my blog report on my documenting my production for AS media.
WWW= What went well
WISW= What I struggled with

WWW: The creation of the product itself, was generally good. Had minor issues that were rectified with ease.
Researching and planning for production was easy as they were lots existing products that I learnt from.
WISW: uploading to blogger was difficult, as it embedding and uploading was a difficult strategy to master.

I hope you enjoyed my blog!

Magazines are distributed globally through supermarket stores, lower market stores and outlets. Magazines can also be distributed online, through the internet. The distribution of magazine is vital for a magazine as this will make it more accessible for my target audience. Frontline Magazine Distribution is a distribution company that sells magazines to over 55,000 retailers across the UK. Frontline are the UK’s leading magazine sales and Distribution Company. Frontline are located in Peterborough, UK.

Frontline are known for doing much charity work and fundraising in their community. The reason I feel that Frontline would distribute my magazine is because my magazine production is different from the magazines they publish; therefore by using mine they’re expanding their market. Also the reason that I think they will distribute my magazine is because they’re the UK’s leading magazine for sales and distribution therefore they would want to keep up that title with a new soon to be popular magazine. I decided to choose Frontline because frontline is the UK’s leading distributor, with them distributed many of the UK’s most popular magazines, which will be good for my magazine as this means that my magazine will be distributed very well. Already existing products they distribute include: Empire, Tv Choice, Match of the day and Heat. These are all big well known popular magazines therefore this is a good distributor for my magazine as they will have the experience of working with big magazine companies.

Evaluation 1

Production: Double page spread title change

I changed the title colour and structure on my double page spread. This was due to the previous title being very basic, unappealing and un-professional. I then changed it too a more vibrant design which will make it more appealing and attractive to my target audience. Using a more vibrant colour and style on font will make it stand out and give it that more professional look. These are all the factors that contributed to improving my title for my target audience.

EVALUATION SECTION

This concludes my production of my magazine design! Now moving on to my final post!

Production: Changes: Front Page

Production: Contents page title change

I decided to change the design of my contents page title and make it more vibrant and creative so that it is more appealing and eye-catching to the audience. I included a black border around the words to conform with the black text and the costume of the model, in the image. I kept the red as I feel that red is the main colour within all my pages therefore keeping this colour will create a feeling of familiarity for my audience.

Production: Changes: Contents Page

I moved the sub images from the bottom to the middle going downward, this is because I felt that it look more structured like a contents page this way and it also meant I could include an 3rd image and it can link to my sub headings more.

I decided to re-arrangement the font size and structure of my text on my contents page. I decided to do this to give the page that typical contents page look and structure, this was because I wanted to offer my audience a sense of familiarity .

 

I also re-arrange the position of my social media icons to the bottom as it didn’t look good in the middle.
