The document analyzes the cover page of a magazine called NME. It notes that the cover page has a spaced out, orderly design with the masthead in bold at the top and articles fitting around the main image in the center. While it includes some typical conventions like bright colors and taglines, the overall style targets an older audience compared to magazines like Kerrang that aim for younger readers.

3. Details within the cover page
• This Certain NME magazine cover page fits the alternative/General
music genre and is very spaced out, This magazine cover is similar
in many ways to the Kerrang magazine cover, however also alot
different, as they both include similar conventions likle they both
include bright colours, Mastheads, Barcodes, taglines, information
etc, However on the other hand, you can determine the different
genre’s, like you can tell this NME cover is targeting more at a wider
range of audiences, like teenagers to middle aged female and
male, where as the Kerrang cover has more of a rock genre feel that
targets more at a younger audience, for example it includes images
of younger a class, includes colours to fit a younger Audience like
bright and bold, where as this NME magazine is better contrasted
and spacious for possibly an older reader.

4. Conventions/Info
• Comparing my magazine type, with other magazines, i think it is the most similar
to NME, as the music types are similar and the target audience is, except that NME
is probably targeting more males, where my magazine i've chosen to do is
targeting the more female side of the genre of the music.
• This magazine is very much so an alternate genre magazine, as within the different
editions of the magazine, there are many different groups/artists that get put into
the magazine, from different genre’s, however having a main focus in
Indie/Alternate genre
• Within these types of magazine such as NME, the style of them seems to stay
similar throughout them, with soft colours to look at like light blue, white, etc,
where as a metal magazine would be alot different probably using darker colours
such as black, therefore knowing which magazine in a shop is what genre it is.
