Research - 580 Words

Research
In regards to my textual analysis, in has helped me quite significantly as for a start without this analysis i would still be fairly naive to the many factors of the products and for a starts i wouldn't have a very good idea on things like how the themes of the products follow guidelines which they have to somewhat meet as if they dont then their chosen target market would be as inclined to buy the companies product, this is why for example magazine companies focus quite a lot on the actual front cover as this is the first part of the magazine you will see and though they say not to judge a book by its cover more often then not you will judge, if you don't like the front cover then you wont be very likely to buy the magazine, the front cover gives a impression of how good the magazine is going to be and whats it going to be about. So now after doing the analysis i know what good companies do in order to appeal to the maximum amount of people,  i know what things i need to include on my piece of pre-production and the work i have analysis has gave me a idea of what sort of work i should be looking for.

By analysing different kinds of work i now know what sort of things that will interest the different kinds of target markets, so with this i have a very good idea of how my pre-production can and will appeal to my target market and i have a good idea of the themes/ colours i need to include, I understand the things they use to interest a reader and i now know how i can apply professional techniques to my work, so it also is appealing to a large audience. I know what my work has to be/look like so it meets a professional standard, which ultimately is the main goal of mine (Professional looking work) as this is what is going to impact my grade quite a lot.

The other thing i used to get ideas of how to achieve good looking work is surveys in which i created one and sent it of to numerous people (mainly classmates), by analysis the survey results i got a understanding of what some people would like to see in my work and generally got a understanding of what they like to see in professionals work and what interests them to buy certain products.
With all the information i gathered about various different types of media and which sort of types i, myself should do for my pre-production. I chose to do a CD cover as i felt all the information i gathered sort of pointed me in this direction as i felt like i could do this type better then the other kinds and overall i felt this type would provide both the best grade and also i would enjoy working on it which i believe impacts the final result a lot. The survey helped me choose this and also helped in regards to me picking my target audience and which kind of CD cover will work best. With the survey it helped me understand ages of the people that listen to this kind of music and how i should use this/include this information into the theme of my work in order to make my target audience actually like my end result.

target audience = Young students, female, colour conations(pink) 
Pink is a non-threatening colour seeking appreciation, respect and admiration. It doesn't like to be taken for granted and just loves to hear the words 'thank you'.
False sense of security, 
Pink is quite a girly colour.
