Practical Production Piece - Planning


I am going to design and produce a 3 page magazine spread, including the front cover and feature story of fashion magazine Harper’s Bazaar. To relate to my written Critical Analysis, the piece will be an article interviewing the female lead of a well-established feminist TV drama, and how her life compares to her role. I intend to analyse various editions of Harper’s Bazaar and perhaps similar fashion magazines in order to achieve the desired outcome of a magazine that looks professional, has high production values and uses the typical codes and conventions of the magazine. The conventions in which I will focus on in order to illustrate my critical investigation are:
  • General layout of the interview articles and front cover
  • Written style, using the appropriate style of language
  • Style of images included on the front cover and within the article
  • Design, colours, style and fonts used
  • Magazine icons (i.e. re producing the logo, title and exact style of Harper’s Bazaar)
  • Target audience and relevance to my critical investigation of female representation in TV drama
