Progression From Preliminary Task




Audience Feedback on Final Product & Personal Critical Feedback

My focus group overall received my media product quite well. They liked the similarities between it and other real media products available. ‘The colours are a bit girly’. I do believe that my product is slightly feminine however I did try to keep it clean-cut and as less fussy looking as possible. I can see why my magazine would maybe be preferred by women more than men in this case. The final chosen image fitted in well with the theme of the magazine – by incorporating fashion and style into music. The sexualised image of my ‘artist’ on the cover attracted people above a certain age. From young teenagers aged about sixteen, to people of their mid-thirties. The idea behind my image was to attract the audience’s attention and therefore I believe this was achieved. Another criticism my focus group made was that the editing on the photo could have been better. Had I stuck to my time deadlines, and originally tried to take a photo of better quality I would have achieved an overall better, more striking effect. Moreover I believe my product does relate to my target audience.
