3. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge
forms and conventions of real media products? – Front cover
FRONT COVER - Looking at my front cover page It follows the conventions of a
real music magazine – before making my magazine I did conventions of a front cover
for a music magazine – one of them was NME – I really liked the layout of the NME
style. I tried to make my music magazine similar to NME – e.g. using initials (RMH) –
but however my front cover page was not too similar it had some differences.
Doing my front cover page I followed conventions by using cover lines, range of
different images, masthead, a colour scheme, different fonts and I also put in a linked
website in the top right hand corner.
However there are many ways my front cover challenges conventions. Unlike NME
that follows the backwards Z rule, my cover lines are aligned to the left hand side. I
thought this ordered a structure and organised to my magazine. I thought this gave it a
professional good.

conventions of a real music magazine – before making my magazine I did
conventions of a contents page for a music magazine, again this was a
convention of an NME magazine – I really like the layout of NME so I
followed that type of style however I tried to make my music magazine
still different.
• Doing my contents page I followed
conventions, quotations, numbers, boxed layouts, followed a colour
scheme, text etc..
• Looking at the contents page there are many ways it challenges
conventions, this is by adding a QR reader, a subscribe box, using columns
and various different images

9. • DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD - Looking at my double page spread It follows the
conventions of a real music magazine – before making my magazine I did
conventions of a double page spread for a music magazine, again this was
a convention of an NME magazine – I like the layout of NME so I followed
that type of style however I tried to make my music magazine still
different.
• Doing my double page spread I followed conventions, large image on one
side of page, different images, small text, use of colour
• Looking at the double page spread there are many ways it challenges
conventions, not making my image too large so it fills up almost two
pages, making my text go around the image
