Pictures for your front cover

Just to let you all know, your model (for your front cover, double page spread and content's page) needs to have a range of costumes and props for your pictures.

You will be marked on your ability to take pictures Including staging, lighting, costumes etc.

Also, the quality of the photographs need to be high quality!

Think about using a range of different backgrounds, lighting and props e.g.

Piano, Guitar etc

Evaluation tips

All evaluation questions need to be answered.

I will upload these tomorrow! You will need to work towards answering ALL sections equally!  It's worth the same as research and planning.

Excellent use of ICT needs to be used, however, it must be fit for purpose! Don't just do it for the sake of it.

Each question needs to be added to separately. 

Remember- you can start preparing for this as you go along! E.g. Screen shoots of what you are doing e.g. Photoshop.

Thanks all,

Miss Beckles

Final Production

This is my last post, you must have at least 4 images for your final production! Otherwise, you will lose marks.

- Take original pictures for your backgrounds e.g. Brick wall, floor, textures, colours etc.

You can uncle a Facebook or twitter link on your page.

Focus in the final details e.g. Spellings, copy size, font style and colour/ proof read it and share with your friends.

One more post!

Thanks,

Miss Beckles

Research and planning

SHOW YOUR PROCESS!!

- Create a sense of journey...

- Write what you've learnt from researching content's page or front cover. 

- You need to have equal weighting for both research and planning.

- this includes your own research, you need to research your own magazine genre as well as the ones that we give you.

- Your research needs to support your final product!!! 

-Pay close attention to mise-en-scene in your front cover (props, setting, lighting, costumes) it needs to be in line with your magazine genre e.g. Use if flute, guitar, piano etc.

- Research titles for music magazines and your construction of titles e.g. How they appear, the font, size.

You MUST consider the needs of the audience!

Tips from the summer report

- Blogs should be clearly organised and signposted e.g. Labelled, post put up in order.

- Deadlines are deadlines- you are not able to submit after the cut off date (February).

- You need to put your FInal, final product at the top of your blog once it is finished. 

Final production

For your final production, you need to scan grab it print screen as you go along for your evaluation.

If not, take off the layers and print screen it as you're going along.

Year 12s,

This is a reminder that next week Tuesday you will be having the second of your five mock assessments.

As previously, we will be focusing on your coursework rather than an actual exam.

The exam will involve you pitching your idea for your final production, drawing a mock up/ flat plan and evaluating your work.

So, please come to the exam with some ideas for the above.

Also, well done to Sanusia this week for being the star of the week- she has uploaded three or more posts and an update for extra marks.

Take a look at her update for inspiration!
