codes and conventions

2. The specific codes and conventions (product
1)
- Feature article photograph … would most likely be a large image of an
individual that falls into the age range of my target audience and gender which
is aged 16-25 female. Wearing stand out clothing/ hair/ makeup/ accessories
to represent an expression of individuality.
- All my images are taken by myself using a school camera or my phone. I asked
the people in my images to use their own clothing and choose their own outfits
to enforce the idea of individuality, while rejecting the notion of exploiting
models to appeal to the producers own idealistic representations and personal
preferences.
- Feature article … referred to on the contents page of the magazine, an
interview with the individual on the front cover (a fabricated celebrity).
- Convergence … QR code for a link to website.
- Selling lines … ‘the issues that matter’
- Slogans ‘Be a fabulous reader’ ‘read outside the box’ ‘better read, better person,
better you’
- Price/Barcode
- Cover Image … Fabricated celebrity

3. Magazine name ideas
- Name:
- Azure (favourite so far, means ‘bright and blue in colour like a
cloudless sky).
- Berserk (means ‘out of control’)
- Huzzah (express approval or delight)
- Syzygy (opposition, my second favourite)

4. AZURE
I personally adore this cover name. AZURE
symbolises positive energy, a clear blue sky is
something the majority of people appreciate- I
believe that idea will reflect in my magazine and
most people will enjoy the beneficial aspects of my
media.
In addition to this, AZURE has a second meaning
(according to source on the left). Butterflies are very
symbolic to me. They represent transformation and
new beginnings which I believe symbolise the
inspirational messages in my magazine as well as the
opportunity to transform as a student.
I used a lot of natural imagery in my photos, I utilized
flowers and tended to not apply makeup to my
models. The word AZURE associates with natural
imagery so I think it’s a great name to reflect the
contents of my magazine.
