Interview: Presentation Feedback Sophie Angus Candidate Number: 1006
- 5. Witness Statement Feedback WWW- In the witness statement it stated that I have use different theories in the target audience for both magazines ideas. Also I have stated different ideas of how I will get more females to read my music magazine with the creative decision of adding more females artists to magazine. I put in lots of detail of overview of the pre- production resource and told the publisher od the creative decision during the process of the magazine. In addition, I have highlighted the title of the magazine and the hidden meaning behind them. During the pitch I have made good eye contact with the audience and the publisher and didn’t read on the script that much. Also when I have made my twitter page I used an effective way to advertise my magazine by tweeting the strapline of my magazine. In addition I have produce a detail overview of the article content and also I have produce a detail conclusion of the what the magazine and why. EBI- However the disadvantage if my pitch is that my language for the picture wasn’t good enough as I said a ‘picture collection’ instead of saying a mood board or when I said ‘conversion’ instead of ‘convention’. Also on my double page spread I didn’t include convention as it is sign of encourage for the reader to watch the interview online. I needed to add and refer to the test and plan photography. Also instead of saying profit and loss it would be better if I said income or outgoing. Also for the production plan I have to mention a launch date.
- 6. Survey Monkey Feedback Question One How did you think the pitch went? The first question will help me to gain information about how my pitch was presented. I give thee three opinion to fill out, which will give my an idea, how my pitch went. One person though that my pitch went ‘okay’ when the rest of them, who fill out my survey monkey though my pitch was good, as it is the highest rating. This would mean that my pitch was high quality as everyone a part of one person though it was good. Question Two What do you think about the quality of the information The second question is about my information in my pitch was good quality or bad quality. There are three opinion that my they can fill out, they have the choice of good, okay and bad. Everyone who fill out rated my pitch as ‘good’ and therefore I have done my research well and presented to the highest standard.
- 7. Survey Monkey Feedback Question three How did you think the pitch went? The third question that was presented to the audience who filled out the survey. This is important because I am able to gain good part of my pitch, so I will know the strength of the presentation. Some of the good feedback that they was ‘LOTS! Very through coverage of both magazines and, in particular, the magazine pages were a real highlight!’, ‘You talk a lot about target audience breakdown for both magazines, you have an effective to viral market your tweeting the strapline’, ‘You have talked a lot about the media theory such as the Maslow theory and the Katz theory’. Another pieces of feedback I got was ‘You have explain the colour really well such as gold for the colour of celebrating. You also explain and made a Twitter page’, ‘Like it how you mention the media theory and relate it to the target audience, also like it how you explain the masthead meaning’ and ‘Like how you mention the target audience theory and also mention how you will get more female to read your magazine’. Question Four What didn't you like about the pitch However, this question is about the improvement of the pitch which can be improve for next time. This is important because I am am to gain the bad feedback to improve the the pitch and the PowerPoint. Some of the feedback that I have gain was ‘The proposal could of been laid out neater and also could of said how you will market the magazine’, ‘The proposal page was hard to read and you should make the slide neater.’ ‘The date of the magazine was unclear as you stated the issue should be released in June 2015’ and ‘Didn't like it how the colour scheme was the same for both magazines, the language you use in the pitch was not professional’. In addition, there was more feedback that I have gain such as ‘The language of the pitch such as pictures collection instead of a mood board or using conversion instead of convention’ and ‘See Witness Statement feedback in terms of EBI’.
- 8. Survey Monkey Feedback Question Five Would you publish my magazine? This question is about if they would publish in my magazine. This is important because this reveal that everyone who filled out the would publish my music magazine. This highlighted that the information, which I have layout on the pitch was so good and so much detail that the publisher have confident that my magazine will sale. This would be that my magazine would be good enough to sale to the general public and also this would mean that my magazine have high quality information which will appeal to the general public. Question Six Do you think that I have made the correct choice about choosing EXLUSIVE magazine over E magazine. I have created two magazine, which contain of front and double page spread. The final magazine is EXLUSIVE, as I thought it look more professional and contain the higher quality of information. Everyone who filled out this question on Survey Monkey though that I have made the correct chose of EXCLUSIVE magazine over E magazine. This is important because everyone support my decision of choosing EXCLUSIVE, as the design which I have made was better than the design for E magazine.
- 9. Survey Monkey Feedback Question Seven If you want to say more about my pitch, leave a comment? This question would allow the target audience to add extra comments to my feedback if they need to say something that my other question didn’t allow to view their opinion. There allow two people who left a comment for this question as the rest of them didn’t know what to say for this question. The first comment was ‘A superb effort and clearly a huge amount of effort went in’, as this person see that I have put effort into my presentation and my pitch. The another comment that was left for this question was ‘ You done your work well’, this mean that this person think that I have put a lot effort into my work. Question Eight Did I cover all the needed area in the pitch? This question would answer if I covered all areas within the pitch such as the media theory, the detailed about pre- production resource and I went in good detail about the house style. By looking at the results you can see that I people who answered my questionnaire think that I covered all area which I needed within my pitch. This would mean that my pitch come in a lot of detail and therefore covered all of the needed area within my pitch. As they recognised that I have put a lot of effort within the my pitch.
- 10. Survey Monkey Feedback Question Nine One a scale from 1-10, was my pitch convicting? This question is rating my pitch out of 10 so that I can see if my pitch went well or if people think that my pitch went bad and therefore I can see their opinion of my pitch. On the scale, 1 would be rate the worst, which mean my pitch went bad, 5 would be rate as average ,which would mean that my pitch was okay. Finally, if I was rated a 10 on my scale, which mean my pitch was a good and therefore the best rated score. So you see from the graph that two people rated mu pitch as a 7, which mean it was above average. However, one person rated my pitch as a 9 and another person rated my pitch as a 10,which means, I have mean that publisher feel comfortable within my pitch. Question Ten Was my pitch clear and could you understand all of the content? This question is about if I have presented my pitch well and also if I have communicate the content to the publisher well so that they could understand my pitch well. By the graph, you can see that everyone though that I have communicate the content well and I have covered everything that I needed. This is important because the understand everything that I was on my presentation, which is important as it have all of the information that the publisher needed to know about my magazine before deciding to publish it with Bauer.
- 11. Survey Monkey Feedback Conclusion for the Survey Monkey Feedback By analysing the results from the survey I can see that people thought that my pitch was fill with useful information about the magazine’s style, process and design that will make the magazine more publishable for the publisher to publish and sale to the general public. By gathering these results I can get a clear understanding of what my target audience thought of my pitch and the way I have present it to them and how they are rating my pitch. The Survey Monkey would allow the them to write what was good about pitch and what I need to improve on, this would allow m to make these corrections to my presentation, so that it would improve my overall results. The Survey Monkey allow the target audience to view their opinion about my pitch and the presentation, and I understand the strength and the weakness of my pitch. Therefore, I can see if my magazine good enough for Bauer Media Group.
- 12. Pitch Improvement The profit and loss correction Another improve that I have receive from my witness statement is to change the wording of the subtitle profit and loss to income and outgoing. It is important to make these changes to it will seem like a real business and also the wording will seem more professional. It is important to use these wording of income and outgoing is because it will make out music magazine more investable for the publisher to invest in as we are able to use proper languages for these terms. Before Feedback After Feedback
- 13. Pitch Improvement Launch Date for Production Plan One of my improve from the witness statement from the publisher is that I needed to mention the launch date for the magazine. You are able to see that I have stated to launch date of the music magazine and the reason behind the date. You are also able to see that when I revealed the launch data I have changed the from to gold and bold, so that it will stand out Before Feedback After Feedback
- 14. Pitch ImprovementFront Cover Correction When I received feedback from my Front Cover , I had to change the cover to make it more suited to publisher and therefore this could improve the sale figure of my magazine as it will look more professional. One of the feature that need to improved is the increase the size of the barcode and also add the publisher logo (Bauer) onto the magazine. this is important because the magazine have to show a connection between the magazine and its publisher. Also I have to change the date of the issue date in order to fit within the production plan. In addition, I have decide to change the eye colour of the image because I want her eyes to stand out from the magazine and therefore make her eyes more shocking when the target audience read the front cover. The colour of the eyes that have been changes is from brown to green eyes. I have change the colour background from white to grey to black and change it to light grey and the dark grey. This is important because I have change the background because to relate to my magazine of inspiration (Q magazine). Also, this could make my magazine to seem like it have a rock theme and people could get the wrong idea of what music information will contain of. This is why the background of the magazine have a naturel as my magazine will contain if all music genre. I have also change the coverline information and the different colours of the coverline. This is important because my magazine will feature the range of colours and not all ways features the colour schemes in the magazine. Also also made the left side of my magazine to have all of the main story and on the right side there are just mention one main story about rating new albums. Also I have use different colours on my coverline line such as an olive green because it will appeal to more people as it will not be just red and gold, which could make it look unprofessional. For the main headline and the main quote are connected together. I have created the main headline to white. Firstly, I have made the name “NICOLE” and then made the name “ANGUS” normally. I also made the main quote on top of the “ANGUS” and then change it from an olive colour. In addition, I have moved the puff promotion, from the bottom left side and move it from the top right side under the strapline so that it will be more like my magazine of inspiration (Q magazine). I also change the prize of the puff promotion from winning an apple product to win free iTune because this prize will relate to music more and therefore help the my magazine with further sales because as the prizes from the magazine can get bigger and better.. Moreover, the website link has moved next to the puff promotion and I have place the website link under the masthead Before Feedback After Feedback Brown eye Green Eye
- 15. Pitch Improvement Double Page Spread Correction When the publisher gave me feedback for my double page spread in order for the publisher to support my magazine and therefore know what I have to change in order to make it look professional. For the facts about the new album box, it was suggest that I should add a black drop shadow around the red box so it will stand out on the page. Also it was suggest that I should add bullet point instead of have sentences and I should also change the font of the text as well. In addition, the new album box had an effect of the black shadow because the red box will stand out and therefore the target audience will be able and notice the fun facts about the album about the artists will released. Also improvement on the double page spread is the I have to neatened up the the bottom section of the page. As the masthead, the page number, the social symbols and also the web address are too close together. This is is why I have moved the web address on the left side and I have made the social media symbol the same size. In addition, I have made the decrease the black stroke on the masthead. This is important because you would be able to see the detail of the masthead on the page. Also decrease the black stroke on the page number because the masthead and the page number will have the same black stroke and it is also easier to read. You can also see that I have place my masthead across the black pattern background, so that this will be a type of brand awareness, as this will add more detail to the magazine and also this will make my double page spread to look fun and creative because of this decision. In addition, I have moved the EXCLUSIVE website from line under the social media symbols and moved it under the interview. Before Feedback After Feedback
- 16. Production plan This plan production will detail how EXCLUSIVE magazine will be designed and created for the general public to read. This will reveal for jobs will be set to different job in order for the magazine will be ready to sold to the public. In sections of the production plan, their will be the day and date, the jobs description and also who the job will be complete by. The creation and the design of my magazine will take fours weeks to compete, I think this will be a good time to compete a magazine because the editor will have time to look through the magazine and able to make changes before it is release to the public. I will use high quality software and equipment which my staff will be trained to use as, so the magazine will look professional.

- 18. Plan for the Magazine http://www.nrs.co.uk/downloads/pdf/general_magazines_201509.pdf Q magazine have the readership of £213000 people. 171000 of the readership are males whilst 42000 are female. Q magazine is a male dominated magazine. This will features more males artist and bands on the front cover or will have female artist and band showing them in a different way. This is why in my magazine it will have equal readership between males and females, as the picture of the male and female artist will be treated the same. This is why my magazine may receive higher sales than Q magazine because if it will a higher readership of females target audience.

- 25. Legal and Ethical Issues- Water Mark Watermark: The definition of the watermark is when a faint design, pattern and the manufacture name that would be visible or associated with the manufacture. This is important because people won’t have the rights to use these images and claim it as their own, as the company will have the right to sue the person. Some watermark would have the copyright symbol, which mean the image will be protected by the intellectual property, as they will have the right to sue the person. If someone what to watermark an image through their official website of https://www.water.ws/plans , you are able to see that that someone can purchase these packages. There are three different package on their website, that someone can purchase. One the official website, the basic package cost $0 per month. This package has 5 photo is limited to watermark and all of the special features are locked. The second package on their website is called the premium package. This cost $3.99 per month, as it cost originally cost $10 per month. You are able to watermark unlimited photo, all of the would be unlocked and you are able to edit the photos at once such as cropping or resizing an image, apply the photo filters and also they would be able to use the premium fonts. Finally, the the third package is the ultimate would cost $ 16.67 per month.

This example of a water, which was found on the internet Source: http://www120.lunapic.com/editor/?action=watermark Front Cover Watermark Double Page Spread Watermark On Adobe Photoshop, I have decided to create my own watermark images for the images that will be features in my magazine. This is important as other people could take these images without permission from the magazine ort the model in the image. This is why have designed my own watermark from these images because other people could copy these images because it show the ownership of the image on the watermark. In addition, this is a good way to advertise the magazine as on the magazine it have stated that EXCLUSIVE has official ownership of the image. Moreover, it has sated that my image is copyright because of the copyright symbol on the watermark. This reason why I have decided to put the watermark across the page instead of on top of the page, is because no one would be able to use this image. This is important as they are unable to crop out the watermark on the image as it is big and across the main image. One example, for the double page spread, the watermark is directly across the image, with the copyright symbol and the name of my magazine, EXCLUSIVE. https://www.water.ws/plans
- 26. Legal and Ethical Issues Copyright The definition of copyright is when a print, publish, film, music or something have a legal right or exclusivity to a person or a company. This mean if anyone uses the material without permission, then the person or the company have the legal right to sue them. This is the copyright symbol. This is important because if magazine use this symbol it means the picture or the information is exclusive to them and therefore no one can use it without their permission. The copyright would relate to my magazine because if my image will have a copyright symbol on it so that no one can steal the image and claim it as their own. If someone did that, our magazine company will have the right to sue them as they didn’t get our permission to use the image. In addition, if our music magazine company would want to use an image what have the copyright right symbol on. This would need that I would need to ask permission from the creator of the image in order for our company to not to break the law. If the creator allows us to use the image, this mean they have given our permission. However, if the creator doesn’t give us their permission to use image, then we would be breaching the law of the copyright if we do use the image anyway.

- 28. Legal and Ethical Issues Intellectual Property What it is? The intellectual property is when an original idea or an original invention had been creating than this will allow them creators to be protecting from anyone else from using or stealing their ideas or inventions. The intellectual come in 3 forms, it is patents, copyright and trademarks. This will allow the creator to protect that invention or idea from anyone and also if some does steal their ideas then they would be able to sue the person(s) or company their breaching the condition. Example This will relate to our magazine as we have to have permission to use the images or symbols before releasing to the public. An example of this is when using a Facebook symbols on the magazine. This is important because EXCLUSIVE magazine have to gain the permission of using the Facebook symbol before put it on the magazine. If EXCLUSIVE magazine haven’t got Facebook permission and still use the symbol, then Facebook have to right to sue out company to the breach of the intellectual property. It is important because even so Facebook is free to sign up for an account, you have to have permission to use the Facebook symbol on a magazine, where it will be release to the public.
