Production Report

For my media studies project, I have designed and produced a series of Sunday Supplement for a broadsheet newspaper called the Daily Star. This Sunday Supplement is of the same style of those used in other similar newspapers and magazines. This media project has called upon my knowledge in a vast number of ways and producing the final draft of my product has proved to be a long, hard piece of work. However I believe that the method I approached my work with was a good one, I set myself a plan of action in my brief as soon as the project task was allocated to us.

This project is aimed at a target audience of both males and female. The age of my target audience is from 12 years old and above. I have chosen the film Die Another Day as the cover page, as this film was about to hit the cinemas during the time I was producing my magazine. Therefore, I hoped it will create an air of excitement to the readers. James Bond films are always capable of attracting a wide audience from 12 years old and above thus consist of both male and female audiences. The front cover consists of the latest James Bond, who is Pierce Brosnan who will no doubt appeal to the target audience. I aim to position the audience into an air of excitement and anticipation for when they read this magazine, and indeed increase the viewing potential. I hope to influence the audience in a way that not only makes them want to read the magazine but also to arouse their expectations and their own feelings on the magazine. It is important for me to understand how an audience reacts in relation to their positioning from this magazine. The knowledge of audience reaction and genre for this project will be vital to its success.
