PRELIM - Statement of Intent

PRELIM -Statement of Intent

I intend to produce the front cover and contents page of a fashion magazine. My magazine is targeted at 14-18 year olds that will be interested in fashion. The language that will be used will be a very unique type that will be different to real magazines. The camera shots used on the front cover will be either a close up or a medium shot that will mainly focus on the type of fashion this magazine is based on. This will also make the model look as if she is trying to communicate with the reader from her angle of gaze. The outfit that the model will be wearing on the cover will be from what the audience preferred to see when they answered a few questions on my survey. This will give me a little confidence that my target audience will definitely read my magazine as it’s what my audience wants to see.

My magazine front cover will have a very simple font that will mainly have upper case letters. The name of magazine is La Moda which means fashion in English. The font used on my magazine cover is san serif which makes it look less formal which gives the magazine the vibe of an informal magazine that’ll hopefully catch a reader’s attention. I like how I made a very simple word sound catchy and unique which will make my magazine stand out.

As for my research, I had made a survey for people to fill out and give me their honest opinions as it was anonymous. This helped me with the magazine as it will give me a better understanding of what 14-18 year olds want to see on a magazine. This is my statement of intent and I hope it’ll catch my audience attention

PRELIM - RESEARCH RATIONALE

The research that I will be doing for my fashion magazine will be helpful for me to create and design my magazine because it will help me know more about marketing and my audience. I am currently a student in Norbury Manor with students from the ages of 11-16 and sixth form students from the ages of 16-18 and this will enable me to have access to a wide range of different target audiences that will have different opinions about a fashion magazine. This research will help me gather information in what they look for in a fashion magazine and what influences them to buy one. For the research I am making into my fashion magazine, I will be doing a survey and also try to interview students from different age groups. I will put together different questions such as quantitative and qualitative that are related to fashion and magazines and this will help me understand what different people have opinions about Fashion magazines. The quantitative research that I will be carrying...

PRELIM - Magazine Fonts Mood Board

I have created a mood board which includes mastheads from different magazines. These magazine mastheads have different fonts and colours which makes them special as it is what represents the magazine company. The masthead also makes the magazine noticeable because of the fonts or the colours used to make it eye catching. These mastheads have their colours and fonts because of what sort of magazine they are and who their target audience is. The so share some similarities between each other but it is not always clear to see what they are. For example, if you compare GLAMOUR and GQ you can see by the use of different colours they have a different target audience. The GLAMOUR masthead has the colour pink and this colour is a very stereotypical colour for girls. However GQ has a mixture of two colours and they do not use the same colours most of the time. The colours they use for their magazine depends on who their target audience is for that magazine. This shows that their similar...
