Evaluation Question 2: How does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text?

Below is the link to my YouTube video: https://youtu.be/dAr20ELi2bk Transcript Hello. My name is Kelly Lopez, and I will be answering compulsory question two. The question is “How does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text?” My product is focused on upcoming artists in the hip hop industry, specifically young women from underrepresented communities. So, a majority of the audience that takes interest in upcoming artists and the latest hip-hop hits tends to range from teenagers to young adults between ages 14 through 25 usually. Of course, people of all ages can read the magazine during their leisure time. I think the attention that my magazine gives to minorities and women in rap, in specific, will attract other women who intend to support the inclusivity promoted through my product.

Evaluation Question 1: How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues?

I had mastheads, a barcode, subheadings, a tagline, an issue number, a date, columns, editor information, and even color schemes. I maintained the color scheme throughout the cover page, the contents page, and the double page spread. I kept my fonts the same for my cover page as opposed to using alternating ones throughout. I felt that this helped make my cover more aesthetically pleasing and more simplistic. I tried to ensure that any images featured were always the center of the attention in the design. In one way or another everything else on the page ensured that the readers stayed captivated and that they focu

Evaluating Preliminary Task

Evaluation Through the preliminary task, I learned more about photography editing, though I used software with limited tools. I learned more about the effects of text placement on the aesthetic of a magazine. Layout For both the magazine cover and the contents page, I followed the conventions of a typical magazine. For my cover page, the main image was the background of the entire page. I ensured that my fonts colors were coordinated and stood out on the cover. For my contents page, I also had my main image in the background. I had a white vertical box where I placed my text to make it easier to read. Text Styles When I was brainstorming my magazine plan, I expected to use the same font for everything because I imagined it made the magazine look more organized; however, I ended up using various fonts within my cover page and contents page. For my cover page, I used bold white font for the title because it stood out the most. I alternated between green and white font because it contras
