My aim for this lesson is to complete my work from last lesson which is to finish my generic conventions and my institution research and start my facial expressions work.

My results of this lesson is that I completed my work from last lesson and I will do my facial expressions work at home.

Generic Conventions.

This has helped me understand what most alternative magazines contain and why they use it for there audience. This also helps me know how I will change my magazine to make it stand out from the competition by using more images in the contents page as it makes it more interesting and more fans will be attracted to my magazine also I will not include an editors note. Also I will not write my article in a Q and A format as that is very popular with alternative magazines so I will a full article so make my magazine different.

My aim for the end of this lesson to complete my competition presentation and to finish my generic conventions presentation and to start my institution research.

My results of this lesson is that I have finished my competition presentation and I am half way through my generic conventions and I will complete it in the next lesson or at home with my institution research.

Competition.

This helped me know what sort of competition is out there and information about them such as the price of the most popular magazines in my genre of music. It helped me figure out how I'd change my magazine to stand out from my competition such as lowing the price by 50p to make people want to buy it more and that I will use lesser known artists as well as big artists to bring in another audience.

Mast Head mood board

This helped me know what types of mast heads are out there and it also helped me figured out what type of mast head that I want which is either big and bold font to help it stand out and as alternative music is big and bold  or a font that represents alternative music such as a horror font as alternative music is pretty different like horror is and a lot of people who like alternative music like the genre horror so it would fit with my audience as well.

Fonts mood board.

This mood board helped me understand what fonts are used in magazines and what possible fonts I could use for my magazine. This helps with my final design ideas as it showed me what fonts are available what fonts look good in magazines it also helped me decide that I want a bold font that will help it stand out to readers. 

Costume, Hair and Make up mood board.

This helped me find out what clothing, hairstyles and make up represent alternative music and how I would present my model so that she looks like an alternative music artist such as using dark clothing and dark make up with a messed up hair style.
