Year 11: GCSE Media students (Magazine production)




Assignment 3: Practical Production and Evaluation                      

Planning, Research and Presentation (15 marks)
Construct and Evaluate (30 marks)

Students will construct a Magazine aimed at a specific audience.

• Four pages (including the front cover) are required per student.
• The maximum group size is two.
• A target audience should be clearly identified and catered for.
• Original material (such as photographs) should be used wherever possible.
• The magazine should be produced using ICT (not hand drawn).
• Codes and conventions should be used creatively.
• Students should integrate text and illustration.
• Students should attempt to create a ‘house-style’.

Research & Planning material

Each student should submit their own individual evidence of planning and research
Research should involve:

• the study of existing products of a similar nature
• investigating the potential audience for the magazine.

Research might be submitted in the form of graphs, annotations of existing texts, charts, surveys, questionnaires, etc.

Planning material might be submitted in the form of briefs, sketches, mock-ups, contact sheets, flat plans, etc.

No more than 12 pages of material should be submitted as evidence of the planning and research undertaken.

Evaluation
Each student must produce a 700-800 word evaluation. This will hopefully address of the key concepts.
