1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions
of real media products?
The masthead in these
magazines are similar to
mine, they are bright and
colourful and stand out.
The main image is also similar
to mine as it is simple and full
length.
Catchy titles and headlines for
magazine interviews and
what’s going on inside, all told
on the front cover to convince
readers.
A bard code, which in all real media
products that are made for purchase
need to have.

2. Mastheads
I chose these particular masthead’s as a
starting point for my own masthead, I
wanted bright colours and bold titles to
stand out above others. These 4 major
brand names fitted in well.

3. Original Ideas
These are all of the magazine templates
I made, I used images of celebrities that
I liked and thought suited the theme I
wanted for my magazine. I have used a
variety of colours for my masthead and
placed them in different positions. It
gave me a lot of inspiration for my
magazine image and final design.

4. In my final music magazine I used a
bar code, I used this as all
magazines which are distributed
for sale need one of these to be
sold. It also makes my magazine
look more real in comparison to
real music magazines.
