In this task i will attempt to write out my Statement of Intent.

I intend to use media language to suit my target audience through: my colour scheme as well as through my layout of magazine and colours as well as types of fonts I use. Since my magazine is aimed at 10 to 13 year olds and my survey review also showed this, I have decided on a wide range and variety of colours since research has also proven that colours provoke interest in content for young kids. Where as to further link from that I will also use a red and orange title that will be significantly larger than the rest of my writing. I have decided on red and orange for the main themes of my magazine because red and orange connote to danger and I want to show and make people realise how dangerous consuming sodas and many other drinks is to them and their bodies. Also I am focusing on the acidity and alkalinity of drinks; red and orange just happen to be the main colours on the pH scale which links to my overall topic as well as the message I am trying to promote through my magazine. The layout of my magazine is all scrambled across the page with the main the cover lines and additional information in bubbles to add more colour as well as more of a theme to my magazine's cover. The font used on my front cover and parts of my double page spread is a light and thin white font that it doesn't clash with the background picture. However on my title I used a large, bold half red and half orange font to connote what was mentioned before and to stand above the picture and information and be the first main focus of the whole cover. For my main article on page 3 I have used a basic and generic black font to make it neutral and to ensure that is stands above the photo not underneath it. I also used media representations in my work by aiming my magazine at young children who aren't aware of what they are doing to their bodies by consuming sodas and fizzy drinks regularly.
