Production Log

8th October 2013, we had our first AS media studies lesson in which i began making a magazine for the school. Every photo I took, I decided to picture if the school environment and society in of the school. I went around the school taking photos of different people and surroundings in different places.

After taking the photos, we returned back to our room and uploaded them to the computers and then opened an A4 sized Photoshop document and began create my magazine. Out of the photos taken, I chose a mid-shot one for my front cover as it is fairly close allowing the reader to feel a connection immediately.  The photo was of my friend Ellis posing outside the school surroundings. After adding in the photo, I had to choose a suitable magazine name, so I chose ‘ FCHS’. Similarly to above, I then plan to add in the FCHS next to it so it’s recognisable to the students, hopefully increasing their choice of buying the magazine. Obviously the image on the front cover, portrays the main storyline, so the text ‘’ is in big font to attract readers and stands out from all of the other storylines surrounding it such as and etc.

I will continue to finish the front cover and create a contents page next lesson using more of the images taken.
