2. Proposal
For this piece of course work I'm going to create a magazine for a certain target audience. The type of magazine I will be creating
is a magazine for blockbuster films that specialises in horror films. I chose this genre because I have many ideas for the
photo shoot and I will be able to be creative during the shoot.
The target audience is teenagers who love watching blockbuster horror films and like reading about what happens back stage
during filming. My target audience will have a large collection of horror films and would be interested in going to the cinema
regularly, they will also have an interest in what actors and actresses get up to and the type of life they live. I chose this
target audience because teenagers love being scared and watching horror movies, the target audience is for both girls and
boys. The social class for my target audience is b-d because teenagers aren't that good at saving up money and have less
money than adults and so should be able to afford this monthly magazine.
I will search the internet to look at similar magazines like mine e.g. Empire and Total film, and look at the type of articles they
write so I can get some ideas for my magazine.
My magazine will be publisher will be Bauer (Bauer Media Group) because they produce magazines that are similar to mine like
Empire

11. Interview with Mary Medrana Article Draft
This week we’re glad to be introducing to you the new upcoming star from the movie October 31 st . In this interview she talks about her life on the set of October 31st, what
she struggled with when filming and what she actually does on her days off.
First of all I’d like to congratulate you on the film, how did you feel winning such a big awards such as the Oscars?
I never expected to have won anything after my first film, I cant even explain to you how amazed I was when I heard the news that I was nominated for such incredible
awards. This film was meant to be something I did for fun that would hopefully lead to other acting jobs, but instead this film put me on the map, I couldn’t be happier about
how well this film did and I'm actually proud to be part of this film phenomenon. Seeing as this is my first film and it did so well just means I'm a great actress. No I'm joking, it
means that this is just the beginning of my acting career.
How was you experience on the set of October 31st?
At first I didn’t know what to expect because I had never really been on the set of a big blockbuster film, but its actually really fun seeing how things work on a set and seeing
people at work. One day I hope to be a director or someone who in the background and help make the movie better, I think without them movies wouldn’t be as great as
they are.
What’s the weirdest thing a fan has done to get your attention?
I had this guy like jump onto the red carpet and he actually proposed to me, I mean it was so cute but I’d never experienced anything like it, I didn’t know what to say or how
to let him down easy so I just said may be in a few years. He was cute anyways so I wouldn’t mind meeting up with him in the future. There was also this other time where a
fan had got into the back of my car while the driver wasn’t looking, I thought she was very dedicated because I remember I was a fan girl once myself, so we just sat there in
my car talking while we drove her back to her house. I don’t think I’ll ever forget those moments.
What's it like on the red carpet?
Its interesting, you have so many people wanting to take pictures of you and wanting to have an interview with you. I'm not used to having so many people being interested
in me. Its fun while it lasts but I wasn’t sure what I should do when I first got on the carpet. I'm not sure If I’ll ever get used to all the attention you get. Its somehow stressful l
in a way because you have everyone shouting your name but on the Brightside you get to see all your fans with their banners and its delightful talking to them , taking
pictures with them and signing autographs for them.
What made you want to do this movie?
Since I was a kid I always loved watching horror movies and I would try to re-enact the scenes from movies id have watched. I usually performed my re-enactments in front of
my mum and she would film most of them and put them on youtube, after a while my videos started getting more and more views and people could comment and say how
good I was at re-enacting horror scenes and once someone had commented on how my video was actually better than the real thing and from then on it had been a dream of
mine to star in a horror movie.
How was it like filming the scariest part of the film?
it was the most fun I had had in a long time. I loved watching how they transformed me to look scary, I looked completely different, it was amazing. Filming the scenes was
just extraordinary, there is so much work that goes into filming the scenes and I got to see that, now I know how they make thing look so real and one of the directors told
me how they make things like ghosts appear. I never really thought the scenes were scary till I had watched the movie for the first time in the cinema. The movie was like
nothing I had imagined, it looked so different to when we were filming. I was literally glued to my seat.
Did you find it weird seeing your face on TV when the movie was being advertised?
I have to honestly say that I did, first time the trailer was on TV my mum literally screamed my name and I ran up the stairs to see what was wrong and she was like “look it’s
you...you’re on TV”. I just stood there astounded and surprised. It was so exciting, and from then on the movie had become reality to me. Since then when I walked down the
high street people would recognise my face from the movie trailer, some people would stop and ask for my signature, it felt pretty amazing always got a happy feeling when
someone recognised me.
Have there been any embarrassing moments at premieres?
Oh gosh yeah! There was this one time at the LA premiere and I was wearing a long lacy brown skin tone dress and I had these long six inch heels and as I was walking my
heels got tangled up with my dress and I ended up tripping and bumping into Taylor Lautner who was unfortunately standing right next to me, it was extremely embarrassing
because I thought I had torn my dress which at that time would have made matters worse but it turned out to being the highlight of the night because I was fortunate
enough that I ended up talking to Taylor the whole time we were at the premiere.
12. Key Concepts Research-
Representation
Representation is how the magazine represents itself and makes itself different from other magazines using a
house style for example texts, fonts, imagery, colours, format, quality and more. There are many stiles and
genres of magazines which is called the mode of address. Many types of magazines have a different mode
of address depending on what their chosen target audience is for the reason that magazines are designed
to be aimed at different genders. Different magazines are targeted towards different genders, for example
magazines that talk about cars are aimed at boys/men and fashion magazines are aimed at girls/women.
For a car magazine the mode of address would be dark colours like blue and black or red which connotates
dominance, there would be adverts to do with cars and competitions that would interest a man or a
boy, you would have images of the perfect man or teenager so the target audience would desire what the
person in the magazine has. As for a fashion magazine the mode of address would be bright colours like
pink and purple (stereotypical colours for girls), there would be adverts that have something to do with
clothes, hair products, shoes and make up, you would have competitions that would grab the attention of
a teenage girl or woman, the competitions would be like winning a chance to go to a fashion show or
being able to meet the new hunk in a new chick flick. Not forgetting the skinny young girl who the target
audience would want to look like. Film magazines are generally aimed at both genders, teenagers and
young adults magazines such as Total film and Empire usually include pictures if well known actors and
actresses who people aspire to be. Music magazines are normally designed for teenagers, the mode of
address would be dark colours such as blue, black, whites and reds. There would be adverts advertising
new musicians, new albums ect and completions for example winning ipods or winning CD’s. The types of
people you would find in a music magazine would usually depend on what type of music the magazine
represents and advertises, for example a punk rock magazine would have images of rock or punk bands
and musician and classic stereotypes of punk and rock teens.
13. Key Concepts Research- Codes and
Conventions
Usually in a magazine you would be expecting sell lines, which is a few words that are
likely to attract the target audience to the features that will appear in the
magazine, a masthead is included telling the audience what the magazine is
called, it usually has a larger text and different font to the rest of the text on the
magazine front page. You would expect to find the price of the magazine on the
front page but the font size would be small because the price is not very important
and magazines are usually aimed at the target grade ABC1 so they wouldn’t really
worry about what price the magazine is. The main images are usually scenes from
movies, the main image would be made large so its more eye catching to the
target audience. The release date is as small as the price because yet again its not
as important as the rest of the text on the front page, the release date helps usual
readers keep track of what magazines they have bought, the realised date tells you
how often the magazine realised and also helps you tell what social grade the
magazine is. The contents page includes regulars, features, reviews and an index
page, a contents page also includes pictures of what’s in store inside the magazine.
New media is also expected to be found in a magazine, new media is social
websites such as twitter and facebook keeping readers informed and telling them
news to do with the magazine. New media is used to attract people who use social
website, these are usually teens. Adverts are always in magazines and help
promote different types of things from brands to music.
14. Key Concepts Research- institution
An institution is the job of a manufacturer and are very
acknowledged and is usually a income based
production that deals with the creation and helps with
advertising, entertainment, cover price etc. Most of the
wealth is made from advertising. There are different
publishers in the UK, the main ones are Emap, IPC
Media. Magazines produced by these companies are
Teen now, Now and architects’ journal. There are two
watchdogs of magazines these are PCC (press
complaints commission) and the ASA (advertising
standards agency), they deal with any problems a
customer would have, suggestions and questions about
the magazine.
15. Key Concepts Research- audience
Its always important that a magazine has a specific audience, it makes
it easier to choose the mode of address. Magazines class their
audience in social grades. The main social grades are ABC1 and
C2DE, ABC1 is the social grade that is given to upper and middle
class people such as doctors, managing directors etc and C2DE is
the social grade given to working class and under class citizens.
Social grades help sum up how much people earn and how much
people would be able to spend on a magazine. Social grades are
also used to attract certain target audiences. Uses and gratifications
theory is a way of understanding why people look for specific media
content for enjoyment reasons. The theory talks about how
customer look for media that improve facts on celebrities and
general day to day life, social relationships and entertainment.
17. Target Audience
my social group will be ABC1 men and women, girl and boys because they would have more money to buy the magazine monthly
and stay loyal to the magazine.
People who would read my magazine:
Mary is a 16 year old girl who’s mum works as a lawyer and dad works as an accountant and therefore gets a lot of pocket money
each month . She likes movies and is interested in watching upcoming blockbuster movies , she likes finding out what the best
upcoming movies are before anyone else. All her role models are famous actresses such as Kristen Stewart from the Twilight Saga.
Mary is not as interested in fashion as she is in movies, she goes to the cinema as often as she can but normally four times a
month. She is not interested in being the most popular person in school but is the one person that everyone goes to when they
are looking for movie gossip or what movies they should go see. In Mary’s room she has a lot of movie posters. Mary makes it her
first priority to go to all the movie premiers and meet the cast of the movie. once in a while her parents get her VIP tickets to
premiers so she gets to walk on the red carpet with the actors and actresses. Mary has her own big TV in her room so she can
watch all the movies she possibly can. Her favourite movie genre is horror because she likes being scared.
