am i creative?

• What features of your work would you say are original to you?
I'd say my original idea for the magazine was original.. and the way I executed it wasnt similar to anybody elses work. Instead of just being about music, I decided to target a deeper meaning which linked with music- the lack of individuality around nowadays. I also think the colloquial style of writing throughout my magazine was different to others, and I chose to do it to familiarise people with the magazine. I also put a picture of myself on the contents page, once again for familiarity for the reader.

• Which media texts and producers have influenced your creative decisions?

Many different media texts influenced my creative decisions. Looking through public prints such as NME, Kerrange, MOJO etc, I could see what worked well within a successful music magazine and took ideas from there, but expanded them to make them original and my own.

• How successfully does your work engage its audience and provoke its interest?

In my opinion, my work engaged the audience in the sense that on the front cover it had snippets of what the magazine contained. Also, on the front cover I had a famous rockstar who is well known by many, so I knew that he would generate interest. Also, the artists mentioned on the front and in the contents page were extremely popular and new.

• Consider some of the creative choices you had to make during the course of your production – how to use cameras, lighting, dialogue, colour etc. How did you make these decisions, and how did these contribute to the final production?
