1. IN WHAT WAY DOES YOUR
MEDIA PRODUCT USE, DEVELOP
OR CHALLENGE FORMS AND
CONVENTIONS OF REAL MEDIA
PRODUCTS?
Ella Kilkelly
Candidate number 8232

2. THROUGHOUT MY PRODUCTION OF MY
MUSIC MAGAZINE, I USED THE TYPICAL
CONVENTIONS OF A MAGAZINE. I USED A
WIDE RANGE OF MUSIC MAGAZINES SUCH
AS ‘NME’, ‘BILLBOARD’ AND ‘ROLLING
STONES’ TO INFLUENCE MY PRODUCTION.
ALL THESE MAGAZINES ARE A SIMILAR
GENRE TO MINE AND THEY ALSO TARGET
THE SAME AUDIENCES. EVEN THOUGH THE
REAL MEDIA PRODUCTS INSPIRED MY
WORK, I STILL MANAGED TO MAKE THE
MAGAZINE MY OWN BY USING DIFFERENT
FEATURES AND TECHNIQUES.
