2. Listing Magazine
 A listings magazine is a magazine which contains
information about the upcoming weeks events such
as broadcast programming, music, clubs, theatre
and film information, examples include Time Out
magazine in the UK
 These are normally published either with a Saturday
or Sunday newspaper or are published weekly or
fortnightly to give information about upcoming
events.

3. Time Out Magazine
 Weekly magazine
 The original magazine, with listings for London,
was first published in 1968.
Time Out is a magazine that help the LGBT Community with events
and movements and this is one of the reason we chose to
advertise our documentary in this magazine. Therefore we were
researching and we found that they have so many events during
this month because is the LGBT history month: LGBT History
Month is a month-long annual observance of lesbian, gay, bisexual
and transgender history, and the history of the gay rights and
related civil rights movements. It is observed during October in the
United States, to include National Coming Out Day on October
11.In the United Kingdom, it is observed during February.

4. Inspirational double page spread
This double page spread was
very effective, as it grabs our
attention because of the colour
scheme and also the layout of
it. The picture has its meaning
as the handheld camera
emphasises that it is about a
documentary.
The layout and the colour
scheme of this double page
spread is very inspiring as the
colour scheme is very effective
and grabs the attention of its
target audience.

5. Inspirational newspaper advert
This is a great inspirational advert
because it’s simple and very
attention catching. The picture
really emphasises the connotations
of the documentary’s topic,
therefore it was very effective.
This advert also is very simple but
effective, as the image really
represents the documentary’s
topic. The layout is similar to what
we want to do, very simple and
effective.

6. Ideas for the Ancillaries
We had some ideas and
this are some pictures
we took in order to
explore the ideas we
had. Some of them
didn’t work very well.
However it was a great
experience!

7. Exploring ideas
When we choose the picture we were going to use, we tried to experiment some effects with the picture in
order to manipulate and send a different massage. However none of the effects send the message we wanted,
so we decided to keep the original image so we don’t confuse the audience.

8. Inspirational Advert:
This is a Dove advert .After looking
at this advert we decided to take on
the idea, and try to incorporate with
our documentary topic.

10. Teachers Feedback
WWW EBI
Concept is okay Size is far too big
Options boxes gets people Picture is too provocative,
thinking doesn’t communicate
meaning very well
Good attempt of size The logo shouldn’t have a
relationship/application white background around
it
Good composition + The ‘’rainbow’’ isn't the
framing title, you need a more
captivating sentence

11. Self Assessment
TARGETS
Use the right Channel 4 font
Fix logo’s background
Add colourful designs so that the image
stands out

12. Layout Plan for the Double page spread
Before starting the double
page spread we tried to plan
first what we wanted to put
in. We followed all the steps
and elements :
• Title
• Subtitle
• By-line
• Photos (taken by yourself) “pulled
• Captions quote”
• 2 columns of text
• Pull quote
• Block of text for additional
information
• Folio (page number/style)

13. Inspirational Double page spread:
This double page spread has inspired us in what the picture represents. It represents stereotypes and as our
documentary is about the media’s portrayal of the LGBT community, we thought that it would be successful. The
text format is not very fancy, but its simple and formal.
