Magazines: Introduction

Our next topic on the Exam side of the course is Magazines.

The two Magazines CSPs are Men's Health and niche women's magazine Oh (formerly known as Oh Comely).




This is an in-depth topic so we need to study these CSPs with reference to all four elements of the Theoretical Framework (Language, Representation, Industries, Audience) and all relevant contexts. Specific pages must be studied in detail for each magazine (specified and provided by AQA).

Normally, we would start this unit with a practical task introducing Adobe Photoshop but we'll have to postpone this for later in the course when things are back to normal. Instead, we'll spend the first part of this half-term studying Men's Health before moving on to Oh.
