Pros of Automobile Magazine

Automobile Magazine

After analyzing the pros and cons of creating a fitness magazine, it is now time to do the same for an automobile magazine. I will be using the same rule of thumb for this analysis.

Pros:

  • This topic would not be as difficult since it essentially consists of an inanimate object. This means that I would have problems taking pictures of an automobile however I want..Any angles or camera shot techniques that I want to do are completely up to me and I would have the freedom to do as I please.
  • This topic would also be easier to plan out and carry out. This is because I already own the car that I am planning on using to make my magazine. Since I already own the car, it essentially eliminates the process of having to find the main attraction of my magazine. This is not something that my fitness magazine would have since I would have to search for the person to use for my magazine.
  • This topic would also be less time consuming since I do not have to schedule or find a day that my car is free. Unlike making a fitness magazine with someone else. I also prefer to work alone.

Cons:

  • This topic may be a little more difficult for everyone to understand. Not everyone is good with cars and it may be difficult for them to find it appealing. There may be automotive terms that are also unheard of to the average viewer and this must be taken into consideration.
  • Due to the above con, this will cause the target audience to change dramatically of what it would be with the fitness magazine. There are not as many female automotive fanatics and therefore the pool of interest will be smaller. This must also be taken into consideration.

G reetings, my name is Juan and this is my very first blog post of many more to come! What is my Goal? The reason I created this blog is in order to log my procedures in creating my magazine for AICE Media Studies. I will be posting these blogs on a regular basis in order to accurately explain how I intend to reach my end product (the magazine cover). My blogs will cover things, such as rough drafts, ideas, possible pictures, and essentially my entire thought process in coming up with the magazine. How will this be done? Since this is AICE Media Studies, I will be going about this blog in a very specific manner with specific tasks in order to abide by the rubric. The magazine will consist of a front-page, contents, and a two-page spread. There is also the possibility that I will be working in a group of up to 4 people. If I am to work in a group, each member of the team will be assigned a specific portion or job, all of which will be discussed in more depth later on.

Codes & Conventions of a Magazine

The next step in properly understanding how a magazine works is to learn the conventions and codes that make it up. This is something that I must learn in order to successfully create my magazine. The information that I obtained through research led me to this: Masthead:  When it comes to publishing, this term refers to the name of the magazine. This is a very important component of the magazine as it is one of the first things read and it also gives off the genre of the magazine. Sell line:  This is the statement made by the magazine that will try to convince someone to buy it. This is because it usually states any extra gains that a person will obtain from buying the magazine such as competitions or prizes. Cover lines:  These essentially serve as teasers as to what information is inside for the readers. They run down the sides of the magazine and is another technique to gain the attention of potential buyers. Main image/central image:  Just as the name implies, t

Preliminary Task (Genre of Magazines)

Genre of Magazines Before I can go about creating my magazine, I believe it is important that I understand what a magazine is, starting with the genres of magazines. I need to get my thoughts flowing as to what genre of magazine I am looking for. I conducted some research in order to outline the different genres, and here is what I found: Food Magazines: This type of magazine revolves around the advertising of food. It can range from foods that can be made at home, how to cook, home recipes, and even foods that can be found around the world. Fashion Magazines: This genre of magazine revolves around clothing and other forms of fashion. Fashion can be displayed through the use of people or individual objects. It is usually what people use to find out what is trending in clothing, but many magazines regarding fashion can also display very extravagant and unorthodox dresses. Automotive Magazines: This particular genre of magazine revolves around cars and e
