Final evaluation of Music magazines

Now you have had some distance from your publications. Try to evaluate it with fresh eyes. Your focus group written comments need to be collated and responded to.
1. Upload the pages to your blog and comment on how you feel about them.
2. Edit your video footage, include some still images of your product to put in as transitions into your project. The way to do this is to save the images as JPGs, put into iphoto then open up from within iphoto from the camera symbol button. (this is a short cut to iphoto).
3. You can film extra footage to improve this. You could interview people who are exactly your intended target audience, or someone who isn't, like your parents or older siblings. You can film yourself talking through the magazine, using the evaluation questions as a structure. In fact if you do this thoroughly this can take the place of a more formal written evaluation.
3. Once you are happy with your edit, click the 'share' button at the top of the screen. This will take you to a shortcut to You Tube. You will need a You Tube account to log in, add your film to You Tube then use the embed code to put it in your blog. Job done!

Here are a couple of very interesting articles about Youth Culture. Read this and think about including some of the points to raise the tone of your response.
