NEA PART 2 - INTERTEXTUALITY IN THE MEDIA

TASK 2 - WRITE A SHORT INTRODUCTION EXPLAINING WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO IN THIS TASK.

I will look at intertextuality (when one form of media is mentioned in another one) in different media forms e.g. cartoons, TV shows, and magazines.

TASK 3  – Choose 3 different media texts... as long as they link to the brief you've chosen.

The vogue magazine is recreating a front cover from and army recruitment poster/magazine. People who like the recruitment propaganda may also be influenced by the magazine because they could relate to some things in it

This magazine shows faces of political figures that some people may be interested in. Politics is especially important now with Brexit, people might be more inclined to read the magazine because of it's current social context. It also seems like a comedy magazine which also has a wide audience.

To conclude from these magazines i can tell that using famous people as intertextuality is good for drawing people in / captivating someones attention to make them want to read the magazine and article.

NEA Statement of intent

My magazine will be and educational magazine that will be aimed at 10 – 13 year olds. It will based on the turn based RPG (role-playing game) Pokemon and how to play the card game (TCG – trading card game). My magazine will be aimed for people who are new to the Pokemon TCG, or for people who want to re-familiarise themselves with the rules.

The magazine will include a detailed step by step tutorial on how to play the card game alongside pictures of the card so that people can follow it more easily. This will also accompany people who learn in different ways such as visual learners. My magazine will be called 'Professor Blackthorn (Prunus Spinosa) - TCG'.

This will be a nice nod to the Pokemon...

NEA Part 6 - Product Style Profile

In this task i will be planning and creating sketches that should reflect or help me on what i would do in my real magazine. I believe sketching is important because it will help visualise my 'final' product, this will help me improve my work. Corey Law: I like the third one. Andrew Quirke : I prefer the third one. Priyan Rathinraj: I prefer the third one because it has pictures of what the cards are. From my research i can see that people like the third one the most because it has more information and is more developed. This went along with my predictions that the most interactive one and the one that provided to most information would be the most popular.
