Planning Tasks

1) Magazine rack survey - visit your local supermarket or WH Smiths and investigate the different types of magazines that are availble and to whom

2) Analyse and comment on a range of magazine titles. What do the words mean and what do they connote about the magazine and its reader?

3) Analysis of visual images - deconstruct the images presented on a range of magazine covers (4)

4) Comparison of the way Mariah Carey is represented on the front cover of FHM and Glamour magazine plus develop knowledge of magazine cover codes and conventions

5) Develop your own magazine questionnaire. You should ask 10 questions to at least 10 members of your audience (decide on age and sex). Think about type of magazine, frequency, price, articles and so on. The results should help you to make decisions about your magazine.

6) Evaluate your results. What decisions can you make about your magazine with this data?

You will find guidance for all of this work on this blog! Keep checking back for further updates.
