Masthead ideas

 Buoy: Linked to the floatation devices that show you where danger is and could be lurking. this magazine could tell you how to live life safely and have a safe lifestyle. Sounds like Boy, play on words makes us consider gender and what it means to be a boy or girl. The idea of the magazine is considering the lifestyle of men and women and how they can stay separate, have their own identity yet be together as a community.

For the masthead of my magazine I'm going to use the word Buoyant meaning cheerful and optimistic. Buoyant also means being able to float and rise to the top. the meaning of this masthead is that life is able to rise to the top and life is cheerful and optimistic for the target audience. The message of the magazine is to find ways  to make your life rise to the top and to be cheerful, in a world where individuals are lost amongst the many users, this magazine celebrates individual life choices. As I was searching for a masthead idea, I was searching for synonyms for happy because my magazine is about the positive things in life, positive stories, positive experiences, positive articles about people overcoming their struggles.

Stranger Things Fandom Merchandise and Marketing

Stranger Things super bowl 2017. 

The trailer at the the beginning is a homage to 80's with a classic tv advert.  This shows nostalgia to the older viewers.

The trailer adds a transition from the 80's tv advert to fuzzing where you don't know what you can see and don't know what is going on. This shows suspicion and links to the main thing of upside down theme. 

The upside down Netflix logo creates synergy because it links to recognisable branding that is mirrored in the upside down world and links to the super bowl display. This is also branded and linkage. Netflix relies on this show to create more revenue and gain popularity for the media stream and service

The neon light effect is a recognisable branding that creates synergy and also inspires more fandom with dedicated viewers. This makes the fans feel like there is something new. The 2 in the background is Neale's theory repetition and difference because it's the same style of font but the number 2 show that there is going to be difference.
