Research-Platform

Platform is a third of the Trent Media organisation. Like the other aspects of Trent media Platform is all about the students. This time I knew of Platform but again I didn’t know it was a part of the Trent Media. I knew it’s existed as I saw it around the halls and the union and the halls and other parts of uni but I had never read t or took much notice of it before. So again I looked into what Platform was involved in and what it actually did. I soon realised again that it was all to do with the students. but they don’t seem to be reading it or getting involved. This could have been the case for a number of reasons, including there advertising structure was not very strong and there wasn’t a lot of info about the magazine out there and within there logos there wasn’t anything to tell people that the three sections within Trent media were connected in anyway for example I knew that want Trent media was but I didn’t no about Trent TV. This is when I found out more about what they did, wrote about and were involved with. I also looked at the material such as there logo and website etc.

After looking at the current material I thought that out of the three logos within Trent media I thought this was the most appropriate logo that were for the product that it was used for so I thought that was good but other than that it was more or less the same as the other 2 in the colours were not very eye catching and they didn’t have much continuity within them all

So after I had looked at all the information I thought about some of the basic ideas that were going around in my head

I cant change the name so it could be something to do with writing and reading
Something to do with platform a stage
Students
Continuity with the Trent media logo
More colour
Something that will attract people of my age
Online
Easy to access to watch online maybe a button on desktop

I also looked at magazines that are out there and local magazines and newspapers
