My Evaluation

I decided to do my preliminary task on a magazine based on Chew Valley School called "The Valley". My Magazine uses forms and conventions of real media products as it uses a stylish font for the title of my magazine which is quite fun and it is very eye catching, I also used 3 different font colours to make the magazine attractive so that people will notice it easily, I made my magazines main picture of a student learning from a teacher fill up the whole of the front cover. I made the price of "Free" stand out with it being written in red font with a green background to again make it attractive and eye catching and finally I made the front cover have a storyline accross the picture to make the reader look up and take notice of it and hopefully read it.
My media product represents Chew Valley School to be a good place to be with success in every department in learning with a student learning from a teacher whilst also enjoying learning with a smile on his face.
The school itself or the local council (Bath And North East Somerset) would be most likely to distribute my media product because they are the ones most interested in students joining Chew Valley School, Chew Valley School itself would also like parents and students that actually attend the school to use the magazine as they want everyone to be up to date with all of the news around the school whilst also having parents recommending the school to parents and children who are interseting in joining the school.
The audience for my media production are parents and students of Chew Valley School and also potential students and parents of the future.
I attracted/addressed my audience by using a photo of a student of the school looking interested whilst learning from a teacher and I also used many different colours within fonts and backgrounds. I used a big cover story on the front over the picture which is related to it as it says "Academic Improvement Again For Chew!".
I have learnt how to cut out backgrounds from pictures and also how to find and use different fonts within my fornt cover. I have learnt that using many colours within fonts and backgrounds are one of the main ways to attract your audience within magazines.
I have learnt a lot from the progression to the full product as I started from a basic white magazine to using different things like pictures backgrounds, stylish fonts, different coloured fonts and a tagline that helps for viewers to remember my magazine.
