Link to brief: 2

Use of media terminology (language/representation/theory): 1

Comments for AQA:

  • The intentions made by the candidate in this statement are largely inconsistently appropriate to the brief outline. They have not gone into any real detail about the magazine for example no magazine title given etc
  • There are some attempts at including media terminology e.g. cover lines and camera shots but again these are vague and lacking detail and depth

Next steps:

  • Develop your statement of intent by going over the brief outline on Google Classroom and ensure you include all the key words highlighted and mentioned in your own statement of intent
  • Use the statement of intent guidance document to support you with this as you will need to reference media theories too


I am planning to produce a two paged magazine which will focus on a celebrity who recently launched their book about motivating and disciplining young people who may currently be struggling and to overcome their struggles, this book will help them to overcome these difficulties. 

The first page of the magazine will feature a medium close up photograph of the celebrity as the central image which connote strength and dominance. Following this, I will include a cover line which will contain a text that will provide and mostly cover a brief introduction and an overview of the celebrity's book which will try and convince young minds to purchase and read it to improve their everyday lives. To do this, I will use a serif font for the headlines and multiple cover lines to give the celebrity's promotion magazine a more of a polished, worldly-wise and a civilized look.

The second page of my magazine will contain some more smaller original pictures of the celebrity and will cover topics such as "How advice about being consistent and disciplined from this book could change your life". I will use multiple camera shots of the celebrity to communicate meaning with the audience: Medium close up to exaggerate strong emotions which will help the reader's motivation to increase. Another camera should could be medium shot to show how inspiring and exciting it could get if the readers use the celebrity's advice. Most of the page will go over the celebrity's backstory and how you can avoid the mistakes he made in his life.
