To begin, my magazine challenges conventions by presenting my unique opinions in a different way. The normal sports analysts do not put out factual statements for the most part. Half the time, their opinions are disingenuous and are put out for the sole purpose of getting more engagement. Every magazine is the same in this sense. Mine challenges this trend and goes against it. My magazine represents football and its fans. It is made for fans to read on events happening and opinions on certain things happening in the sport. I would not say it represents any issues. This magazine is all about what NFL watchers enjoy. It represents the NFL community well. Much like any sports magazine, mine is very clearly meant to represent sports fans, more specifically football ones.
Secondly, the target audience of my product is the football community and people interested in football. My product engages with this audience by including content that they would be intrigued by. The articles are relatable and interesting to the audience. Obviously, the main target audience, football fans, would be the most interested in the magazine. My product can be delivered in many ways as true media text. It would start with online advertisements for the masses to come across on various social media sites. Several social media sites are now posting advertisements between videos or streams. My magazine would be entirely online, so online advertising would make it readily available. Posting the link to my music video on my own social media pages will be another way of distribution, asking friends and family to check it out and spread it further. This way, I will also use the individuals I know as a source of advertising and promotion. Additionally, throughout this project, I have learned more about Canva, the editing resource I used for my cover. This is my first time using it, and I have improved a lot on it. I have also used Photoshop for my 2-page spread. I have improved on both platforms. I have begun to learn time management for this project, getting things done ahead of time will be important in the future. I have learned a lot more about Media and production, and I would say my skills have improved. They should continue to develop and progress more as the project goes on. Finally, I integrated technologies in different ways. I used the software Canva to create my layouts for the cover and contents. Canva is a software on my computer which is hardware. I used Adobe Photoshop for my 2-page spread. Both software have been very useful. As for online, I used Google and Google images, as well as Weebly to upload my cover and table of contents, along with my 2-page spread.

The top is the edited and the bottom is the original. I decided to choose a picture I liked better. I updated the table of contents based off my first double page spread and current events.
There are a number of ways in which I can consume media that reflect these patterns and trends in viewer behavior. When designing my magazine, I have many editing applications at my finger tips to use. This demonstrates ways in which viewers can design projects based on what is being created. I am able to develop a website and create a magazine that I can distribute. There are infinite options when it comes to distribution and advertisement of a product.
Setting - The location can give tell us a great deal of what our characters are like and what they are feeling.
Decor - The color of the decor can give a deeper look as different colors give off different meanings. Lighting - The lighting often times sets the mood of the scene. Different lightings can correspond with different vibes and tones. Depth of Space - DOS can give a contrast between 2 different situations or thoughts Costumes and Makeup - Costumes and Makeup can tell us a lot about the characters and what they are like. The ongoing growth of new media technologies is very significant to media outlets and audiences. In order to find new ways to sell their brand, the film industry is continually evolving and adapting. For example, companies have launched an online streaming platform in recent years, which offers the audience the option of purchasing the film and streaming or uploading the film directly to their home computer, or even to their smartphone or tablet. This has saved millions of distributors because they can only submit a single file instead of sourcing packaging materials for a huge fee, and going to the manufacturing stage of making the actual media disk computer and still release and sell their product to the same number of individuals as they would release a physical Digital Disk. This is the same for new releases of cinema as distributors do not need to process a film reel now, they only send the production file to another computer. This also eliminates the distribution distance cap as a dozen film reels would have been exchanged and posted around the country in the past. An internet connection and a computer are now all they need to obtain a new release. This supports the view that "old" media such as DVDs are in decline as the major drive for new viewing platforms is increasingly reducing the need for old media.
