Additional Front Cover Music Magazine Analysis

Today in one of my media lessons, we were set a task to analyse another music magazine front cover using the software of vokie. I have used vokie once before within previous blog posts. I have decided to do this task because it will help me within my "Journey" as I am able to express and display my creativity further. Below click the play button on my vokie to show the analysis of this NME front cover Music Magazine using the media terminology I know.

Voki

Voki is another online software that I have become aware of. Similar to Prezi it is another software that allows you to present your ideas in a creative, exciting and innovative way. Below is a video that shows a quick tutorial on how to use Voki. Again I have used Voki once before and I will continue to use Voki in future blog posts as I will be able to present my presentations more exhilaratingly in order for viewers to have a better experience.

Ideology

Today I have decided to make a Prezi focusing on the topic of ideology. Ideology plays a major role in the media and the way how people are represented to society. Ideology can impact on the way people behave in todays society due to different types of media text presented to the public. This Prezi explains how ideology can have this impact on people and society.

College Magazine - Contents Page Analysis

After looking and analysing different contents pages of music magazines, I have now completed my college magazine contents page. To analyse my contents page I have decided to use the software of Voki to analyse my contents page. Within my Voki I have stated why I have used certain features in order to make my page interesting and attractive for the reader to look at.

Contents Page Construction

During todays media lesson, I decided to begin and construct my own contents page mock up for my college magazine using the Photoshop element. To help me do this I have used and looked at a range of other contents page that are related to Music Magazines. By looking at a range of content pages, I will have a better insight and better understanding of how a contents page should appear to the reader, and I will know how to make my magazine more appealing to my chosen target demographic when it comes to constructing my music magazine.

Below are 2 contents pages (related to music magazines) that I have looked at to help me to begin my construction of my college magazine contents page. From what I can see in terms of graphological features, they are presented differently to the reader. For example the NME contents page is presented with more text with different styles and fonts on the page while the mojo magazine is presented with less text and a variety of different images are used on the page. I know from looking at these 2 pages I will able to be more creative and innovative within constructing my music magazine contents page.
