Sadie Smart Coursework

NEA Planning Part 5 - Casting Introduction For this task I must clarify the models I will be working with for my magazine and why they are suitable. Conclusion This task made me understand further into why I chose my models and what I want them to portray and reflect. For example, I want both models to represent freedom and positivity as it will inspire the target audience to do the same as the magazine is going to be high end one so it will be influential. This includes the models facial expressions and makeup being natural. 

NEA Planning Part 6 - Schedule Introduction  For this task I need to schedule my time management and steps while creating my magazine. This will keep myself organised and reminded in what I need to do next. Conclusion Overall, this task has helped me a out massively with becoming a lot more organised with balancing out the tasks within this process. For example, having the photoshoot scheduled for a specific date at the beginning makes the process of actually making the magazine a to easier.

NEA Planning Part 4 - Location information Introduction  In this task for planning I chose my shooting location. This will give me an insight to the risks and safety hazards that come with the location. Conclusion Overall, this task made me more aware of potential hazards in my shooting location. For example, making sure wires and chairs are away and kept neat will prevent a accident from occurring. 

NEA Planning Part 3 - Product profile Introduction In this part of planning, I will create a range of sketch designs on my potential magazine (two front covers and two content pages). By doing this, this will give me many ideas and also responses as I will receive feedback on my designs. Task  https://prezi.com/view/JDSSu7oz9T1mCIyjKs2d/ Conclusion This task helped me give me an outlook and vision on how I want my magazine to look like. It also gave me a reminder of all the codes and conventions to include. For example, in my front cover, I added a subscribe option to lean towards the e-media industry as society is consuming less print. So, when I got a comment back when showing my magazine this gave me a different perspective as it added to my front cover. I enjoyed being able to understand why I decided to use all my codes and conventions. For example, looking at why I used a mid shot for my front cover it carried more purpose to it.

NEA Planning Part 2 - Mood board Introduction  For this task I researched further into the design and mise en scenes I would like to to use in my magazine. To do this I will create mood boards on the camera shots, font, fashiona nd makeup I would like to use for the magazine Here is my link to my research: https://prezi.com/view/fPgXGMDFAPJ8PpPUlWXp/ Conclusion  I found this task very helpful as it gave me inspirational and let me understand the purpose I want my entertainment to represent. This is because I look at a variety of different niche magazines, different model poses and shots and the type of colour scheme I intend to use. 

NEA Planning Part 1 - Audience profile Introduction  For my first part of planning I made a survey on SurveyMonkey to get some feedback on peoples views on magazines and what they engage the most in the entertainment genre. This will help narrow things done for me as it makes it easier and clearer in what kind of magazine I want to produce and the type of codes and conventions I should include.  Task  Here is my link to my survey questionnaire https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/SJFDQ93 Results Here is my link to my surveys results. 12 people participated and this was my findings: https://www.surveymonkey.com/analyze/cKcyw7RuWVzjX_2FzEakoyzTKvdJLi03FeidRYt_2FGv_2F_2BM_3D?tab_clicked=1 Here is my link to my presentation to my analyse of my results.  https://prezi.com/view/MJUatWShjNvAbD8QgNsE/

NEA Research Part 7 - Producers/Directors Research Introduction In this post I will researching the  practitioners linked to my chosen brief such as the photographers, producers and more. This will give me inspiration by their style and main conventions. So, when I create my work it will reflect a similar style to what is expected in the entertainment magazine genre.  Task Here is my link to my research presentation https://prezi.com/view/JjKeodKbBxN3sv8JLx2v/ Conclusion Overall, researching the different photographers and producers that are involved in the making of entertainment magazines gave me a clearer insight to what is expected in front covers and how to keep the shots interesting. This is because each person that I researched had a initial purpose on what they wanted to present in their work and they do that by being unique and honest with their art. For example, I like how Peter's intention for his photography is to empower women by representing them as ...
