There are pros and cons that come with choosing to produce a magazine for the AICE exam rather than a brief video. To commence, a magazine is a great idea for me, simply because writing is one of my greatest strengths. Magazines rely on solid writing and fortunately for me, solid writing happens to be my forte. Another great reason for me to choose a magazine as my project medium happens to be that I will not need to research various shots and angles that comes with filming. (This can be a very tedious process.) Finally, a magazine is a great fit for me because there will be less people to worry about over the duration of the process. For example, in a video, there is an entire cast, writer(s), producer(s), editor(s) and a director. However, a magazine merely requires writers, editors, and interviewees.
While there are enough perquisites to using a magazine rather than a video for the AICE exam, magazines also come with cons as well. This is due to the fact that it will be more verbose than a brief video because it will contain multiple issues (if there is to be more than one in a group) and written articles within it. A final con would be that I will have to learn a whole set of technology when it comes to creating a magazine; I am already well aware of how to use a video camera and I could even utilize my cellular device instead...it is the shots and making of a film that I mentioned before that I consider not to be one of my strong suits.
In summation, there are indeed pros and cons that accompany the choosing of a magazine for use as a medium on the AICE exam, as oppose to a brief video submission.
