Semiotics - blog task number four

Semiotics are a way to express feelings in a text or in an image, Magazine titles also have connotations. The title of the magazine should make sense to the aim of the publication. It should make sense to the audience but also give them an idea of the magazine’s aspirations so therefore the title of the magazine must be perfect for the type of information that you are trying to get across.

School weekly – weekly information about the school that nobody knew

School monthly- monthly information about the school that nobody knew

24/7 school news – information about the school 24/7

Semiotics - blog task number three

Semiotics are a way of understanding the literal and the possible meanings of images and words which directly telling the reader, e.g. Heat magazine use the word heat to represent how hot the news is because it is brand new and up-to-date.

I will use close up pictures to grab the reader’s attention and make it so it’s a denotation where the reader knows what he is seeing and can explain it by just using what he sees, I will also make it so the images I use will be of people who are staring at them so it makes it look serious and secure.

Genre conventions - task number two

Genre conventions

A genre convention is a typical or standard trope of plot, character, setting, icon, theme, or effect in a genre story. For instance, in a Western it is conventional to have the heroes wear white hats and the villains wear black hats. This is more commonly known as an icon convention.

There are many sub-genres and conventions, some of these inside the school magazine include relationships, fashion and a lot more language is directly aimed towards you, e.g. 1 week to change YOUR grades. Layouts in news magazines are formal, symmetrical and uncluttered – indicates that the audience of intelligent and classy.

These sub-genres and conventions will influence my school magazine design because I will provide a few of them inside my magazine such as using formal text and formal way of presenting my magazine to gather peoples attention of the intelligent kind.
