2. In my media product I did a lot of research into how to create a magazine and what
ways I can make it genre specific, I did this by analysing 3 front covers, 3 contents
pages and 3 double page spreads and took the common ideas and incorporated them
into my own magazine, this meant I followed a number of conventions.
Question 1
5. Kerrang!
MOJO Q. This will be because Kerrang! is aimed at
a younger audience so the large use of images will appeal more to them and draw them in,
however in MOJO Q, the target audience is older so there is less need to fill the magazine
with images to draw them in, and the front covers tend to be more simplistic.
6. Kerrang! In my analysis of their double page I noticed how the clothes of the lead
singer matched the colour scheme of the article which was the look I aimed for with my
double page spread. This style makes it more appealing to the eye. Also the use of pull quotes
is another convention seen in nearly every magazine, this draws in the audience and makes
them want to read on and find out the meaning behind the quote
