Similarities and Differences of Music Magazines

This is my piktochart of my similarities and differences of 6 Music Magazines.

Wordle



In order for me to get a better understanding with music magazines and the different genres, I made a word collage using Wordle. To do this I used words related to the music genre and music magazines, this helped me understand in more depth about different music magazines and their genres as well as which ones are most popular and why. Therefore, when it comes to making my own magazine I have a further insight into different genres and what needs to be included. This words teach the reader more about the music industry and what different magazines contain.

Key Concepts of Music Magazines

I have learnt about the key concepts of a music magazine, which has enabled me to analyse different music magazine covers and taught me about the different music genres. This is beneficial as when I make my own magazine, I will include the correct information as I am now familiar with what needs to be included in a magazine. When it comes to designing it, I will be more confident due to all the previous research I have done.

Introduction

Introduction 

Introduction to me

Hello! My name is India and I am 17 years old. I go to JCoSS and I have chosen to do AS level and A level media because it will enable me to further my knowledge and skills in the media industry. I also chose this subject because it looks interesting and will allow me to do new things such as write my own short article as well as create my own music video. It's an extremely hands-on subject; therefore I can interact with modern technology in lots of ways, using all the customary IT programmes such as final cut pro.


AS Coursework

I am doing media A level however the first year is AS. My AS coursework counts as 50%of my final AS media grade. The task we have got given is to research into media magazines and what is popular in the magazine industry. We will also be making our own magazine which has a front page, contents page and a double page spread. I will focus on a target audience which i will be targeting and working towards for my magazine.
