12D - Print research/planning tasks

In today's lesson we need to catch up with some research and planning for the print production. Complete the following tasks:

1) Find at least 5 magazine covers aimed at a similar target audience to E4 and embed them on your blog. For each one, pick out one cover line that is similar to one you could use in your own magazine cover (e.g. an interview with a celebrity that also appeals to your target audience).

2) Find at least one TV souvenir magazine cover and embed it on your blog - Doctor Who magazine is always a good option.

3) Produce an A4 sketch of your front cover including the key conventions you have studied and picked out of existing magazines.

4) Produce an A4 landscape sketch of your double page spread design.

5) Write a detailed analysis of this Doctor Who magazine front cover using the 12 key conventions handout we looked at a couple of weeks ago:






















Use the lesson to complete this or, if you're filming, ensure it is completed for homework - due Thursday.



Homework for next week
In Microsoft Word, write the text for your double page spread feature. Plan it out carefully then write a headline, sub-heading and at least 500 words for the main article.

Due: next Monday
