(64) It's a long story...Creative Critical Reflection #2

 


--Dawn of the first day--
Hey guys welcome back to another blog, today we are going to be answering another question for my creative critical reflection.

How does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text?

My magazine product targets men of course as it's a men's fashion magazine and it's made for men of all ages and backgrounds. I've made the magazine eye catching with flashy colors and intriguing cover lines. I've done this because it appeals to viewers easier and makes it easier to retain their attention while conveying my points across.

The color scheme is mostly red and blue and I chose this specifically since red is a more energetic color and it calls for more attention and blue makes a good contrast to that which helps add emphasis in that design context. Since this is a magazine for all ages I did make use of some informalities and jokes such as calling the magazine the "Drip Edition" and adding coverlines like "I would kill to look this good". This helps to engage with the audience in a more light-hearted approach.

The magazine encourages the audience to get into men's fashion and just interact with it regardless of their age or situation and this idea is conveyed from the use of imagery. And it does this in a fun way that shows how interesting men's fashion can be and that it's not boring.

This product could be distributed as a real media text through the use of physical copies as readers would eagerly pick up my eye catching magazine and I could also distribute online which would also work well as people would want to read my magazine for informative yet entertaining information on men's fashion. Physically we would distribute it through retailers, barbershops, gyms, malls, book stores, grocery stores, and pawn shops. Virtually we would distribute it through amazon, audiobooks, and a dedicated website for our publishing.

(9) Let's talk...Mise-en-scene

Hey today we're gonna learn about...MISE-EN-SCENE!! But what is Mise-en-scene? Simply put Mise-en-scene is literally "placing on stage" in French; all the elements that appear on camera and their arrangement. So everything from the makeup that goes into a scene to how the scene is setup. Alrighty so let me get into each of the features for you to give you a better understanding of everything that Mise-en-scene encompasses. Production design: Production designers are the people responsible for the visual concepts of a film, such as television or theater production. They work closely with the director and producer while they design a style for the elements incorporated in a film. Location: The location of a film sets the mood and supports the action. For example, in a abandoned McDonalds the location would give you suspicion and a horror mood. Studio: A film studio is either a entertainment company or a motion picture company. These companies have their own privately studio...

(58) That's crazy bro- FINAL Feature Story

  This is it, welcome back guys, today I have for you my revised feature story, the final version! My teacher reviewed my feature story draft and suggested some changes, so I'll show you that first-    My teacher suggested I delete the part were I say this is a feature story, because it should be obvious and in hindsight it is, so I'm grateful she pointed that out, it makes it more professional! I didn't notice it before, but I was also repeating some information, she pointed it out and I corrected it promptly! Finally she suggested I delete some of these sentence starters I use at the start of each of my paragraphs, and I think it's a great idea as it helps with the continuity of the entire feature story instead of making it feel like multiple small segmented parts, overall I'm very grateful for her advice as I believe it has drastically improved my feature story from were it was as a draft! Now enough suspense, here is the finalized version of my feature story! -F...
