Preliminary Exercise- Contents page

This is the contents page I created for my school magazine. It includes most of the key conventions a magazine should include however I could improve this by making it look realistic but also practice using it on InDesign. The colours stick to the same colour scheme of the school logo to avoid confusion but to make it look effective and symbolic to the school.

PRELIMINARY TASK - FRONT COVER

This is the front cover I created on PowerPoint in order to achieve a rough idea on what a magazine should look like, what key conventions should they include in order to make the cover stand out and appeal to the target audience. I used a range of effects on the title, image and puffs to allow it to stand out however also meet the key conventions to prepare myself for the real production plan. This was just to get me warmed up on how to use certain software's but also prepare me to use my blog and update every single research.

Preliminary Exercise

This slideshare shows the Preliminary Exercise I was set by media teacher to get in practice on how to prepare myself for the real production and research plan.

Introduction to my blog

My name is Jesika Patel, I am a student at Harris City Crystal Palace and I am currently studying Media Studies as an A level Subject which I truly enjoy but also joy experiencing the world of media. This is my blog where u will update my research and planning for my coursework of Music Magazine that I will create using Adobe InDesign as this is packed with new features that enables me to get create and design a front cover, contents page and double page spread. It allows me to create effects on the font text or images which engages the target audience and immediately draws their attention to the page as it is standing out to them. The research and planning will also be recorded onto the blog, showing how I created the magazine and what I will need to do in order to improve and create a magazine that satisfy the target audiences needs.
