My Mood Board

Wednesday 27th March 2019

• What brief did you choose? I chose a magazine brief.

• What are the minimum requirements for your chosen production?  On the front cover you have to have: at least an original title, strapline, cover price, barcode, edition number at least 1 main image, and 3 cover lines. On the double page spread article you have to have: a headline, stand-first, subheading, 1 main article, 3 other images and one article with 300 words linked to one of the cover lines on the front page.
• What is the target audience as prescribed in the brief?10-13 year olds.
• What is your target audience for the product you're creating? (this needs to link to the audience profiling post). People who like cats/ want to know more about cats. 

In this task i'll explore different types of images , font and colours to use in my magazine. I shall be looking at different connotations and how these affects the way my target audience might view my product. By creating this mood board i will also be exploring creative ways of how to present my work.

TASK 5 - When you finish the mood boards you need analyse them answering the following questions:

• How did they helped you define content for your product? They have helped me to decide what colours i am going to use for my magazine. 
• What will be your overall colour scheme of your production? Red, Purple and white
• What kind of images/shots would you use in your production? I am mainly going to be using medium and close up shots however i may use a found long shot image. 
• What kind of fonts would you use in your production? I am mainly going to be using big, italics and maybe a different font. 
• What kind of mise-en-scene would you use in your production?  I am going to be using a cat wearing a superman costume.
• What kind of intertextuality would you use in your production? I am going to put a cat in a superman costume flying towards a speech bubble of 'knowledge', and i am going to put 'to infinity and beyond' underneath that, which is from toy story.
• Which media theory(ies) are you likely to use in your production? I am going to be using the uses and gratification theory and the 'ideal reader' theory as my reader can pick my magazine up for their own pleasure/ relaxation etc......as it fits their ideal type.
