Evaluation: Question 7

as you can tell from my college magazine i have come along way to creating my music magazine. first of all i have used different shapes and fonts to make the magazine stand out more. as you can tell from the pictures i have been more experience in photo taking and editing any bits that is not needed. we also used a piece of software called indesign to create the double page spread. i have been able to put colours together that go well with the type of magazine and put shading etc also in. from the start of the year i was finding it difficult with the types of software that needs to be usedbut now i am used to it i think i have done a good job.

Evaluation: Question 6

SLR camera- i have used made the photos more enhanced and come out in better quality. without this camera the magazine would not have been so good.
photoshop- was used to make the front cover and the contents page. it had vital things that needed to be used to make the magazine realistic
indesign- was used to make the double page spread
ishowu- as you can se from above it lets you see from another perspective what i have actually done while doing my magazine
prezi- also prezi i have used with another dimension of software which makes the question more exciting using prezi

Evaluation: Question 5

Evaluation on Prezi

Evaluation: Question 4

this is a person that would fit my audience. he would usually where chinos and a checkered shirt, and most likely to have fairly long hair. the person i chose would listen to music whenever he can such as in the car walking to college or when he is doing homework.

Evaluation: Question 2

as you can see the similarities of the person with the same posture and shot type. but as you can see the person from q magazine is that they cannot see his eyes so they do not no how he is feeling. with my magazine you can see the eyes and what he is feeling. the shding that i have used also indicates he has got two sides to him rather than jus the one lighting from Q.

Evaluation: Question 1

For my magazine i used a few ideas from the Q magazine shown to the left. the layout of the magazine helped me finish the magazine off and make it a hit.

It starts to look different from others at the start with the masthead. it is very bold but clear and across the whole of the page. also the photo taken shows that there is a dark side and a bright side to the musician.

Daft of Questions and answers for double page spread

Adam Hilton with
Liam Caly
The Manchester born man wants to create his own smell and admits to having verbal diarrhoea
Hello Liam. I realise you are abroad because I am with you but why is this?
“Today’s my day of promoting my solo career in the Swiss, as not many people around here have heard of me. I don’t know why.”
It’s the solo artist they have all been waiting for...
“Yes of course, as well as the new range of fragrances.”
What would your fragrances smell of?
“Caly’s Musk. It would be a mixture of fruits and spices. Maybe I should make it the first drinkable fragrance.”
I had drank some Brut once at a Christmas do. Whenever I opened my mouth you could smell it. So I spent the rest of the evening feeling the need to explain to people that I was not wearing Brut, but had merely drank some.
“Don’t try to link that story back to my music.”
Well, the thing that would prevent me linking this back to your music is the fact that there is no pleasant surprise on listening to your music.
“Ooh. Ooh, that hurt. I served that up on a plate, though. It’s probably too obviously to print, though, so I suppose you won’t, will you?”
No joke has ever been to obvious for this column.
“So I have noticed. Do you actually have questions written down?”
No.
“No, I didn’t think so”
Well the thing is, Liam, when I interviewed you previously, I didn’t write any questions down, and yes that was amateurish and irresponsible but the results were incredible, so this time the lack of questions is deliberate.
“A lot of people conduct interviews but don’t care about the answers.”

My problem, Liam, is that I care too much. I CARE TOO MUCH ABOUT YOU LIAM.
“I am well aware that there is thinly disguised contempt from many journalists when it is quite obvious they got into the business because of their love for Liam Gallagher, but now they ask X-Factor contestants what is there favourite make-up. (Silence) It’s your turn to speak.”
I was trying the old journalistic trick of ‘leaving a pause so the pop star feels the need to fill it, which usually gets them to blurt out an amazing or hilarious truth’.
“That terrifies me. I’m trying not to emit any foul slurs but it’s hard.”
It is interesting that you are terrified of silence. Did you have an unpleasant experience with quietness as a youngster?
“Well of course. I always fill silence. It’s verbal diarrhoea, I suppose.”
So this obsession with needing to fill silence with some sort of sound, does that explain your musical career?
“Let me do that question justice. (Long pause) No, not really.”
What are you hiding then?
“Like most people in this game, an obvious lack of talent.”
Most musicians have that sort og panic quite frequently, ’am I good enough, am i just getting away with it, when will i be caught out?’ But it must be particularly acute for you Liam.
“You have NO idea.”
