magazine advert

Helpful advice that we should remember whilst creating the magazine advert:

- Make sure all the relevant information is included. 
The customer needs to know the event, the date any any other bonus information such as reviews or a website so this needs to be clearly advertised on our magazine advert.

- Find a software or technique to create the advertisment. 
How we create the advert will depend on which medium we are using to advertise. Here are some basic ideas

• If we are making a small scale print ad, such as a flyer or magazine advert, a good programme to use would be Adobe InDesign or Photoshop.
• If we are making a video ad, try working with iMovie, Picasa or Windows Media Player.
• For an audio ad, good programmes to use are Audacity or iTunes.
• For a large scale advertisment, you would probably have to contact a print shop to get the work done.

Magazine advert-first attempt

Here is one of our main magazine advert that we have been editing.

magazine advertisement

We could take notice of the different text used in these magazine adverts. There so many different kind of texts and fonts to choose from.

Photoshop development

these pictures demonstrate how the original screen grab got developed into the magazine advert. We had  to download different text to get the right one for our magazine advert. When the magazine advert is done we will post it on our blog.

Filming

Here's a photo of me setting up the camera in All Saints. We filmed Daniel singing the song the whole way through and we filmed this three times from different angles. We will now edit this footage in to our music video .

Key points to note regarding location We were looking out for unusual or interesting backgrounds to use as the background which the singer will stand against. Name and number of location contact:  We would contact Mr Johnson, our media studies teacher, if we encountered any problems or had any queries regarding the filming or editing of our video.

Health and Safety Issues to note: - Climbing over fences    - Slipping on muddy floors - Using matches - Carrying equipment on public transport

Potential Filming Problems : - Not having enough shots for our video

Additional Notes:  (map of area/weather forecast etc) The weather was similar to this on the days we filmed. We were lucky that the weather remained constant on the different days that we filmed.
