Plan B Print Texts: Interviews

Why is this platform being used?


The reason that print media has been used is because that print media has lots of benefits over other types of media. The benefits of the Mens health magazine being a print text means that consumers are able to read the magazine on the go but also have the ability to read it whenever they want as it is portable and can be put in a bag so that it can be taken. Another benefit is that magazines can be kept for long periods of time and in households where other types of media such as websites can disappear after long periods of time. Another huge benefit of print media is that it does come with loads of advertisements that can come in the way of reading an article, which means that the consumers are more likely to read what is written but also look at the ads in the magazine as there are only a few which means that it can be seen as an more effective form of advertising. 

Do the articles do more than entertain? How?
I believe that the article does more than entertain it helps inform and educates in audience of what is being said, Plan B educates the audience in two ways he explains from experiences and beliefes when we answers questions. One way this has been done is by educating the audience on why he made ill manors and what his reasons were for making the film. The second way that plan B had educated his audience is that why he felt the need to lose weight and what influenced him to lose weight.

Does this platform allow the audience to participate/contribute?
The print media does not let audiences participate however it may give the audience a chance to send in comments or question beforehand that may have been asked during the interview.

What codes/conventions of print interviews are apparent in the examples?
The  men health magazine article does more than entertain, as well as having funny aspects it also informs and educated  by giving details of information of Plan B's nutrition regime and workout so that people are able to try it for them selves which is a common of interviews.

How is narrative used to tell a story in each text?
The narrative is told using Plan B’s experience and his beliefs, he explain what his actions had a dramatic impact on his life and how it had affected him, he then realised that he should do something about it and to find a solution to his problem.
