Unit 10: Film Production (Pre-Production) // Shot List // Neil // 06/12/2018


Unit 14: Digital Magazine Production // Emma // Update on Digital & print magazine difference L.A A

There are a few noticeable differences between a digital and a print magazine. One of them being one you can hold in your hands and turn the pages in person and have been around since the first magazine that was released in 1663 in Germany, the other being one that you just read online.

Pros for print magazine: You can read it anywhere in a bigger version instead of on a small screen on your mobile, for example, on a bus.
You also get a different kind of enjoyment when you have something in person than on your computer.
You can for example collect magazines that could also limited edition and can be worth a lot of money in the future.
You don’t need to have an electronic device and an internet connection to own a magazine, you just need some money to get the magazine.
Once you buy it, it’s yours for ever

Cons for a print magazine: If you’re in a rush to get somewhere and you need to suddenly put your magazine away to keep getting to your destination, then you have to find a place to put your magazine.
If you spill something on or rip your magazine then you can’t replace or fix it, it will be damaged and you might not be able to buy the same copy again because you either can’t afford it or that issue isn’t out anymore.

Pros for a digital magazine: You can take it anywhere with you as long as you have a digital device like a mobile or tablet.
You can also just quickly pop your phone in your pocket if you need to quickly move or need to focus on something else and not have to take time putting any paper away in a bag or possibly in the bin.

The magazine can fit into your pocket pretty much since it’s on your phone (if that’s the device you’re using) and you won’t have to worry about finding a place to put your magazine.

You can read a digital magazine anywhere on any device. You can read your magazine on a mobile, tablet, laptop or any other device that can have download and open files on.

You can have every single issue the magazine publishers have to offer without having to worry about having a clutter of magazines in your home that could take up a lot of space.

Easier to share with friends. Either screen shot or send a link.

Won’t have ware and tear.
It’s a cheaper for publishers to get the magazine out into the world

They can use an analytics tool to find out what how long readers spent on their magazine and what pages the liked most.

Once you’ve subscribed and as soon and the issue gets released, you will have the issue straight away.

Eco friendly.

Cons for a digital magazine: Depending on what device you’re reading the magazine on the screen of your device might not fit the proportions of the magazine on correctly. So it might require you to zoom in and out a lot to be able to read the magazine correctly and be able to read the text.

If you can’t use, can’t afford or just simply don’t have an electronic device then you won’t be able to read the magazine’s that are published. The same can happen if you don’t have an internet connection. If you can’t buy the magazine online, then you can’t see the magazine.




Some Fire Facts Bro!!!
http://freeportpress.com/print-vs-digital-how-we-really-consume-our-magazines/

A survey was done by Freeport Press Newsletter in September 2018 to see “How We Really Consumer Our Magazines”
This survey generated 1,226 responses.
Whilst looking through their questions and checking their percentages from their survey last year compared to this year. I found out the following

1)    In the past month how many DIGITAL magazines have you read?
The result was 55% have NOT read a digital magazine in the past month whereas
last year it was 59%...So around 4% more people have read a magazine in the past month than the results last year

2)    How many PRINT magazines do you subscribe to?
This year 43% do not subscribe to print magazines, last year it was 45%, showing that 2% more people have subscribed to a magazine.
It also says that 25% of people subscribe to 3 or more magazines and last year it was up to 2%. This shows a massive 23% increase in how many magazines people have subscribed to since last year.

3)    How many DIGITAL magazines do you subscribe to?
73% do NOT subscribe to any digital magazines, last year it was 76%
Telling us that 3% more people have subscribed to a monthly magazine than last year.

4)    How much time do you spend with each DIGITAL magazine on average?
52% said they don’t read digital magazines this year, and 54% last year.
This shows us that 2% of people spend more time reading digital magazines than they did last year.

5)    Last year 46% of people didn’t visit magazine websites whereas this year it’s dropped to 42%. Meaning that 4% more people visit magazine websites this year than last year.

6)    How much time do you spend on magazine content via social media?
This year 63% of people don’t follow magazine content on social media. Last year it was 72%...Showing that 9% more people spend some time on reading magazine content via social media.


When reading part of the questionnaire that was given to people to gather a portfolio/reader profile I can see that the majority of the people who answered these questions were between the ages of 55-65 (22.76%), had an income of $50,000-$74,999 (25.24%), are in the South Atlantic (17.36%) and the majority were female (50.83%)
