Historical and Contemporary task.

Historical Task:
One example from the cover of Women’s Realm that supports the idea that variety, creativity and quality are limited by the narrow range of magazine distributors during the time period, can be found in the cover lines of the edition. These cover line only feature articles and products about homemaking, children and gardening. This supports the idea because there is no variety as all the cover lines are a stereotypical view about what women can do.

Another example from the cover of Women’s Realm that supports the idea that variety, creativity and quality are limited by the narrow range of magazine distributors during the time period, can be found in the cover lines of the edition. The brown/ creme theme isn't very appealing and eye catching which isn't the norm for magazines as successful magazines aim to sell by catching the audience eye.

An example from the contents page of Women’s Realm that supports the idea that variety, creativity and quality are limited by the narrow range of magazine distributors during the time period, can be found in the left column which lists the content of the magazine and the subtitles only include the following: "cookery, knitting and beauty." this is a very limited range of topics which shows there isn't much variety or room for creativity as women subjected to only do "women like things".

An example from Women’s Realm that supports the idea that variety, creativity and quality are limited by the narrow range of magazine distributors during the time period, can be found in the lets find love section as it only includes the playful side of love and it sets out what they feel love should be like showing there is little creativity as the audience can't come up with their own type of love the magazine sets out what they feel love is.

Another example from the rest of the magazine is the 'atrixo' advert. It shows creativity with the scene from 'Before you use your hands use atrixo it keeps hands smooth and presentable', however, it also shows the creativity and quality are limited because of the lack of colour and ability to engage the audience through a poor use of pictures and camera techniques used in the images.

Contemporary Task:
One example from the cover of Huck that supports the idea that the publication’s ownership allows for more varied and adventurous content can be found in the quote "We live in a world where women are dominated by men. We are here to take control of our own future." This shows that there is going to be more varied content because the women are rebelling and hoping to make a difference a change which represents that there will be a variety as it isn't the norm to have women fighting in wars.

Another example from the cover of Huck that supports the idea that the publication’s ownership allows for more varied and adventurous content can be found in the cover line that only mention 'female fighters' this show there is a variety as we don't normally see women soldiers fighting in the army the percentage of men to women is a major difference which relates for adventurous content as it may influence some women to try out for war if they was ever thinking about it.

The Brussels skaters article shows that Huck are willing to have the most varied and adventurous content. By them visiting a city that was currently on lockdown it expanded and put out the best content possible which successfully engaged their current audience but also bring in many new viewers. Huck met a multicultural group of people in order to find out about their different backgrounds and how it has affected them during the time of lockdown, by them gathering different people experiences they are allowing adventurous content by exposing their audience to different experiences that wouldn't be common to them.

The Ocalan's Angles article shows that Huck are willing to get close to places of potential war. They interview and find all about the Kurdish women who are fighting for their independence and prepared to fight back against one of the most notorious terrorist groups.  By Huck having images of women in the b battle zone shows they are being adventurous by going out of their comfort zone.
