Completed NEA For Moderation

 Dear Moderator, 

My name is Euan Chatburn. Welcome to my A Level Media Studies blog. This is a record of the work I have undertaken for the Making Media Non-examination Assessment NEA) within the OCR H409 GCE A Level course in Media Studies. 

 

I worked independently on Brief 3: Magazine and Online to produce the front covers and contents pages for the first two editions of a music magazine called The Bridge together with the magazine's accompanying website. My music magazine is published by the independent publishing company The Bridge Publishing and covers pop music.

Further down in my blog you will find evidence of my research and planning for this task.

 

I have inserted jpegs of my magazine's first edition cover and contents page below.

 

 

I have inserted jpegs of my magazine's second edition and contents page below.

 

 

The link to my website, which was created using Wix, can be found at the link below. 

The Bridge Website

The website consists of a homepage and a single linked page. The linked page can be accessed by clicking on Featured Artists

 

Production Task 2: Website

 I started off my Website by creating a header with the Masthead and coverline as well as some of the links to other pages, as would be seen on a website for a magazine in order to mimic the expected conventions

Production Task 2: Contents Page 2

Similar to the front covers and previous contents page, at this point I decided to alter my contents pages tackling major issues such as the cramped nature of the page, mainly due to the overly large text size which not only stopped more content being added but also went against the typical conventions of magazines.
