Lesson 9

During this lesson we were set the task of writing an exam style essay, under exam conditions. It was about magazines print and online versions and they targeted there specific audiences. This gave us chance to show what we had learned over the past few weeks. It gave us a chance to think about what were the different things the different types of magazine offered. I discovered the Hip Hop Weekly, offered a ridiculous amount more in there print version, and there online magazine offered little more than there front cover story on there print version. It was certainly the worst online version to a magazine I have ever seen. This surprised me as print versions have a much lower limit of things they are able to do compared to online versions.

This task created the chance for me to really thing about the differences between online and print versions of magazines it gave me valuable insight in how they attempt to keep the same house style through both versions.
