Lesson 9

Lesson 9 - During todays lesson we had to write an exam like question under exam contidtions with a time limit. it was about comparing magazines with there online versions and print versions and how they target there specific audiences. this gave me time to think about what i had discovered in the previous lesson and at home browsing internet versions. I found that Hip-Hop magazine had an extremaly poor online version, with no videos, no blogs and barley and images and it did not offer no extra interactional activities









In todays lesson we had to write an exam style essay under timed conditions, about the magazines print and online versions and how they target their specific audiences.This enabled us to think carefully about how the online versions of the music magazines offer many other aspects than what is avaliable in the printed versions. I found that the music magazine of NME- New Musical Express, had a lot more video footage of the music agenda and had a lot more interactivity than the printed version. The printed versions of all magazines are going to be limited in what they can offer as many of them are only weekly, if not monthly issues. Therefore, the most up to date news about music is going to be shown on the online versions and through E-Mail newsletters where avaliable.This task helped me to think about how the different magazines portray different aspects in each version of their music news. It enables me to think how many magazines keep the same style on the online version, and how different the information can be in both the printed and online versions.
