FoundatIon portfolio-preliminary task

my foundation portfolio includes a preliminary task, i looked at media key concepts and how i could use them to create a college magazine. I have been asked too create a front-page, a contents page and a double page spread.
i used the term LIIAR which is short for
-L- language
-I- Ideology
-I- Institution
-A-Audience
-R-Representation


Language- the language has too be relevant with my story in the magazine and my photographs, headline, text, fonts and colours to communicate appropriately with my target audience.


Institution- they institution is Wyke college magazine. my magazine will be fo 16 - 19 year olds because that is the basic age group of the students at Wyke. Academic.


Ideology- The message i am trying to get across, which will be respect, socialising and people who look similar to students.


Audience- My target audience will be the students at wyke, teachers of wyke and possibly the parents of the young adults who attend wyke college.


Representation- The people on the front of my magazine will be shown to be quite stylish, basically a typical college student so people will buy the magazine because they are not unknown to the look of the people i am photographing. i feel it's an easier way to communicate with my target audience.
