Prelim. |
Final Magazine. |
During my media journey I have learnt many things and come along way from where I started, being my prelim task compared to what my final
music magazine looked like.
The first thing I have learnt during my journey is how the technology
worked. I have learnt how to edit a photo on to the background
I want it on for example in my prelim photo the background is
a school canteen which is very unprofessional. However in my final
magazine the background is a gradient which looks a
great deal more professional.
Another thing I have learnt on my media journey is about photography,
I have learnt many things such as about different shot types,
lighting, location and how to work a camera. I have also learnt
how to plan a photo shoot to get the best outcome.
The main thing I have learnt on my media journey is about convention
and terminology. I have learnt that most magazine have the
masthead at the top of the page and it covers 1/6th of the page, that
pugs tend to be at the top of the page and puffs contain words
such as 'exclusive' and 'free'. These are all features I have
included in my final magazine.
I have also learnt about different media theorist and their theories.
For example I have learnt that Laura Mulvey suggested the theory about
male gaze, if a female shows skin and looks into camera she is trying to
grab the attention of a man. I also learnt about Dyer and his theory
of a star being an image and not a person, this is true as my
model wouldn't usually have such heavily make up
or wear such dark clothes.
