PRELIM TASK:

Model consent forms!!

A model consent form is one which both the model and I sign which gives me access to use their pictures.
Here are the models I chose to use:


PRELIM TASK:

Flat Plan

This is the flat plan I drew for my magazine cover and contents page. I intend to make my work look like this and possibly add a couple of changes if things don't go as they should or I find better ideas!

PRELIM TASK:

Shot list

So these are my shot lists for my front cover and contents page. For the front cover shots, I have mainly drawn plans for close ups and medium shots as I want the model to really stand out. However, in the shots for the contents page, I have included more medium and long shots and even a two shot! In my contents page, I plan to use 4 pictures so I'd like to have a range of shot types. In the shot lists, I have included the following:

    . The shot type

    . Location

    . What the model is doing/Any props  used

    . The mis-en-scene

PRELIM TASK: Magazine deconstruction

















Hi! So this is my version of deconstructing a magazine cover. This task is to aid my preliminary task of creating a magazine cover of our own. By doing this task, I learned what needs to be included on the cover of a magazine and how I can make mine look good, and appeal to my target audience too. I've learned a range of new words and meanings and doing this has helped me gain a better understanding of them. I enjoyed doing this task as it helps me with my preliminary and it was part of a magazine I can relate to myself!

Hi and welcome to my blog for media studies! I really think I'll enjoy media as I'm interested in current issues. I'll be showing all my year 12 work on this page so keep visiting for new updates and to see how I get on. :)
So, our current project is a preliminary task. For this we've been briefed to make a magazine cover and contents page for school or college. Seems pretty straightforward but I know that there'll be a lot more work involved. The magazine is required to have a picture of a model from the waist up. Also it should include all the convention of a magazine (you'll see what I mean by conventions in my magazine deconstruction post). We also take our own photographs and learn to use the art of Photoshop. I'm really looking forward to it and can't wait to start!
