Q1.

In what ways does

your media product
use, develop or
challenge forms and
conventions of real
media products?

There are many conventions of magazines which are used in

my front cover, contents and double page spread these
being a mast head, coverlines, puffs, and consistent colour
schemes throughout. These conventions are used to grab the
attention of the audience and make them want to purchase
my music magazine. My magazine used conventions from
magazines such as NME, with its logo placed at the top left
of the front cover as well as its regular colour scheme and
MOJO, which uses text arranged around the body of the
image it is focused on in its contents. Both magazines are
conventionally alternative and so by using these two
magazines as inspiration for my own would more likely
appeal to my audience who may also read these two
magazines.
