I didn't use any of these images from this shoot as I don't think they were of any use that would fit my magazine

Double page spread story

Teenage fashion in Cornwall is like stepping into a jumble sale, there’s a bit of everything that would suit anyone. We don’t have the fancy boutiques and the jungle-like shopping centres that the cities possess, however we have a handful of charity shops in the local towns and an odd Topshop or river island here and there. However if you spent a day and walked through Newquay, Truro or Penzance you will notice that no two teenagers are dressed the same whether it be wearing bright eye catching colours or dressed fully in black whatever weather. 

During the summer if you head to the seaside villages you will more than likely see people walking round in beach wear, wetsuits and bare feet but if you saw people walking round cities such as London and Bristol dressed in that attire you would indeed think that they were losing the plot, however the sandy feet, ice cream stained t-shirts and sunburnt noses are a thing we have become accustomed to.

When the winter weather starts to take over and the dark skies roll in and the street laps start lighting up the sky is the time that you’d start seeing the knitwear making an appearance. If you fancied doing some late night shopping in truro you will see that it is bursting with vibrance - and I'm not only talking about the lights! your eyes will be drawn all over the place with the array of colours that people will be wearing as they huddle in closer to there clothing to go in-between different shops. from old to young you can see how style has been changing throughout generations and although cornwall might not always get recognised for it, we definitely do have the best style in britain.

Audience Research Billboard

I created another survey to find out what my target audience would like to see on there billboard.

I asked how old my audience were and I came back with equal results from people aged between 16 - 20 +.

Again, my results came back as all females.

These results show that my audience have an income running from £75,000 to over £100,000 a year so will be in the demographic audience of A1 - C.

This shows that everyone that answered this survey is white british, meaning my regional magazine will appeal to them.

This shows my audience is of a straight sexuality.

This shows that the colours I will pick for my billboard is black, whites and reds.

This shows that the majority wanted big and bold text so I will have to take that into consideration whilst creating my billboard.

This shows that they went the image to be taken outside. luckily cornwall is full of gorgeous scenery so will be easy to capture a breath taking picture.

Genre/Institution Research

for my billboard I thought about where the best place to position my poster would be. I thought that placing it around the out side of top supermarkets in cornwall and near tourist attractions. I researched through the internet a range of printing companies ho make billboards and compared the prices to see what company I could do it cheapest through. The companies I researched were The cornish printing company, BJ press and mis cornwall printing.

The quotes ranged between £350 - £650 for 50 billboards and £1200 - £1700 for 400. I chose the cheapest so I would pay less but carefully place them in popular locations so therefore I would gain more money through this.
