The document discusses how the media product, a dance music magazine, uses and develops conventions from other dance music magazines. It looks at magazines like Elektro, Tillate, and Mixmag for inspiration on design elements. Elements copied include similar colors, layouts, and positioning of cover images and mastheads. It also challenges some conventions by adding a quote and making text wrap around the cover image. The target audience is described as young adults aged 16-32 interested in dance music. Stories and artists featured in the magazine also align with this target demographic. Potential distributors mentioned are Music Mags, a music magazine publisher, or IPC, a larger distributor of various magazine genres. Music Mags is considered a better fitMedia studies evaluation

Tom McCrae created a music magazine for the rock genre as part of a media studies evaluation project. He researched existing rock magazines to inform his design choices, particularly their color schemes which were typically black, white, and shades of red. For his front cover, contents page, and double page spread, McCrae took inspiration from layouts and features of popular rock magazines like Kerrang! and incorporated techniques like prominent text boxes and separating images from text. McCrae believes his magazine effectively represents its target audience of rock music fans through its content and advertisements for concerts. He plans to advertise the magazine through posters in shops and bus stops to reach its target demographic.Final three products

The crew list for a music video will involve only a few actors as the director feels the type of video being produced doesn't require a large number of cast and crew.

The document discusses plans for a music video for the song "Everyday is Exactly the Same" by Nine Inch Nails. The genre is alternative and the video will include repetition to match the repetitive lyrics of the song's chorus. One scene will show a car driving down a country road for 2 minutes from the same angle, to be cut up and used repeatedly. Locations in Biddulph Moor and Mow cop that provide the right reflective scenery are being considered for this repetitive scene. The video will also tell a narrative story about an individual stuck in a mundane routine that changes after a realization.Music video director

Three common music video genres are discussed: pop, alternative, and metal. Pop videos aim to be lighthearted and boost positive feelings, while metal videos often have a darker tone showing negative events. Alternative videos are less defined but aim to be unconventional. Examples are given of each genre, showing their different conventions around lighting, attire, and tone. Pop features upbeat scenes in daylight, modern fashion, and feel-good themes. Alternative can be mysterious and unpredictable. Metal features the band in black attire with aggressive expressions playing heavy instruments in a tall, imposing shot over the audience.Examples of music video genres

Music postersmccrae1

This document discusses music posters and their purpose. Music posters are mass produced to promote bands by displaying them in high foot traffic areas to notify the public. Posters also showcase a band's unique style and music genre through images and color schemes. For example, the alternative genre poster shown has a dark, mysterious image and style that stands out from standard designs. Posters can also advertise concerts, helping both the band and venue by increasing recognition and attendance, such as one poster using a dark-colored, unique style presented in an old-fashioned, formal manner.Mulvey’s theory on the male gaze
Mulvey’s theory on the male gazemccrae1
Ìý
Mulvey's theory of the male gaze suggests that in film and media, the camera perspective is typically male and portrays women in limited ways as either virginal or sexual objects. This objectifies women and does not allow for a variety of female representations. Music videos often exemplify the male gaze through shots that focus solely on revealingly dressed women without men present, drawing the viewer's attention to their sexuality. Ratios of women to men can also reflect the heterosexual perspective of women existing for male attention and pleasure.Target audience
Target audiencemccrae1
Ìý
The target audience for an alternative music genre video would be teenagers and young adults aged 15-24. As an alternative genre focuses on more mature topics, it would not appeal to younger viewers. The target demographic would likely be social classes C1, C2, and D. Fans of alternative music may follow trends of alternative bands in both dress and music discovery. They also likely consume media across varied channels as alternative music does not follow conventional paths. The style of alternative music can explore dark and realistic issues that older viewers may relate to from their own experiences.Genre conventions

This document discusses genre conventions in music. It notes that rock music uses dark, aggressive styles to discuss real-life struggles, while R&B has a strong beat throughout and is popular on music charts. Electro also has an energetic, fast-paced beat throughout songs. Alternative rock features unconventional videos and sounds. The author's chosen genre is alternative rock because it is less common than genres like pop or rap, does not follow set patterns, and features unconventional styles not known as widely as other popular genres.Media studies evaluation
