Researching Magazines
I decided to look at different kinds of magazines to get an idea of the layout and colour of the magazine.
The main thing I noticed with these magazines is that the masthead is the top third of the magazine. The font of the masthead is colourful and bold and it stands out.
The layout of both these magazines are very similar. The text of headings in both magazines are mainly on the left hand side on the cover. The colour of these headings are either the same or have similar tones of colour.
The photograph is placed in the centre of the cover which takes up the majority of the actual magazine and cover but also the text that is on the cover is placed in front of the image
When researching the layout of magazines, I noticed that the colours that are opposite each other the colour wheel go together eg. Yellow and purple. Also different tones of the same sort of colour also goes together but realistically the opposites of the colour wheel compliments each other and make the cover stand out.

College Magazine Questionnaire Results
This is my results from my Questionnaire. I asked 10 people around the college so I would not get a non-biased result. I used different types of graphs and charts so you can see the results from different perspectives and how different the answers are for each question.

Definition Of A Magazine
A magazine isn't the same thing a newspaper.It isn't the same thing as a book.
A magazine is a collection of information. It also includes images, different Genres with set interests. There are so many magazines in this world and I would guarantee that there would be at least one magazine for you that suits your interests.
Magazines are not just about gossip, airbrushed models and fashion. There are many magazines such as music magazines such as Kerrang and Q which are made for those music lovers.
Magazines cover such a wide range from the kids to the elderly. From the Cbeebies to the knitting magazine. People think Magazine are just made for the teenage girls and women but that isn't true. There are so many different genres such as sports like "Match" magazine and also gaming magazines such as "Xbox 360" magazine.
Magazines also change with the seasons. The colours of many magazines such as fashion in winter are mainly red, green and blue because it relates to the winter time and Christmas. Magazines especially fashion fashion magazines in spring and summer are pastel but vibrant colours such as pink, mint green and yellows. In autumn the colours in many magazines are orange, red, black and dark purple because it relates to the theme of Halloween.
Magazines have colourful, bold and eye catching photos with bold and enhancing colours. Magazines also have articles and stories in them to gather information and gossip.
Magazines can also be different sizes, the main sizes of a magazine is an A4 and also you get smaller sizes of A5 which is called a Berliner. The front page and very back page are made of glossy paper and also very high end adverts in the magazine would have thick or glossy paper where as just the pages inside the magazine are just ordinary paper.

All About Me
Hello,
My name is Holly and I am currently a College student studying Media Studies and this is my Foundation Portfolio in Media.
This portfolio will show all the work that I have done in Media.
I chose media as an A level option because I really love the way the media works. I feel like its really interesting and there's so many ways you can at the media. The media cna be seen as a very negative prospect as it does affect everyone in many ways. However, the media can be seen as an influence to some people to wanting to make a change in this society. I personally chose media because I like creative side towards the media work as I can send a message but in a creative way where people can understand the message that is being put across
