Coursework Lesson Fifteen; Statement of Intent
Do Now;
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.
