Semble magazine adopts many existing conventions of real magazines, while also challenging some. It follows conventions like including a masthead in the top left corner, using pull quotes on the cover, and including a barcode in the bottom right corner. However, it challenges conventions by placing all coverlines on the bottom third instead of left and right, using a desaturated main image instead of a vibrant one, and giving the double page spread a varied design instead of matching the house style. Semble also aims to keep up with digital times by establishing an online presence on platforms like Facebook and Instagram.

The document evaluates potential media institutions to distribute Semble magazine. Bauer Media Group is experienced in print media but already distributes a similar magazine called Q. Time Inc. is a suitable option as it has a UK subsidiary and experience distributing a magazine similar to Semble called Uncut, though it may not want another similar title. Team Rock specializes in rock magazines but likely would not want Semble as it separates rock subgenres, unlike Semble. Based on the success of similar magazines, Time Inc. is concluded to be the best choice due to the popularity of its magazine Uncut.
Pitch
The document discusses planning for a magazine targeted at males aged 16-25 who enjoy rock music. Key points:
- The magazine will be priced at £3.99 to be affordable for its young target audience.
- Content will focus on the rock genre, which is the preferred genre of the creator and most popular in a survey.
- Different designs were considered and one was chosen based on focus group feedback preferring its layout and color scheme. Photos will give a feeling of exclusivity while demonstrating equality across features.

Semble magazine adopts many existing conventions of real magazines, while also challenging some conventions. Examples of adopted conventions include placing the masthead in the top left corner of the cover, using cover lines in a prominent location, including pull quotes from articles, and featuring a medium close-up shot of the main cover image subject. However, Semble desaturates its main cover image, which challenges the convention of using vibrant cover images. Semble also establishes an online presence on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to engage with readers, reflecting the changing digital nature of magazines.
Question 1

Question 1
The document discusses how the media product uses and challenges conventions of real magazines. It uses a serif font for the coverlines to conform to 1950s conventions, while challenging modern magazines that use serif fonts consistently. The masthead challenges conventions by using two fonts and a photo overlay. For the contents page, it imitates Billboard's layout but challenges conventions by not overcrowding with photos and bold text. It develops the contents title further with a heart shape and gradient overlay. Images are resized across the top third of double pages to balance the layout and convey more context without a clear divide like photos or shapes typically used.

The document discusses the conventions used in creating a music magazine. It examines the cover, contents page, and double page spread (DPS) used in real music magazines. For the cover, conventions like the masthead, cover lines, and relevant background are used. The contents page includes space for details and a suitable background image. The DPS commonly features a celebrity photo on one side and interview on the other.

Magazine front cover print version emma
The print version of a magazine's front cover provides less information than the digital version. It only includes the dominant image and masthead, aiming to attract readers based on visuals alone. While this keeps the design simple without distractions, it risks putting off readers who want more details to pique their interest before buying. The minimalist approach could appeal to younger audiences but may discourage others used to more informative magazine covers.

This document discusses how the author's media product of a magazine, billboard, and radio ad uses and develops conventions of real media while also challenging some conventions.
The magazine cover, layout, and elements like the masthead, selling line, barcode, and cover lines follow conventions of real magazines. However, some elements are developed differently, like changing fonts and layouts.
Individual pages also use conventions from example magazines but make some challenges, like including fewer articles on the contents page. Advertisements and interviews are similarly modeled after real media examples but with some unique elements.
The billboard keeps information minimal as is conventional but links to social media, developing the convention. Overall, the author strives to
Evaluation of magazine task
The document describes the design choices Jessica made in creating a magazine mockup. For the front cover, she used serif fonts for the title and sans-serif for headlines to draw attention. On the contents page, she used different fonts and multiple images to draw readers to different stories. On the double page spread, she included a smaller offset image to focus on the interview text.
Evaluation Q1
The document discusses how the media product follows and challenges conventions of real magazines. It follows conventions like using a masthead, rule of thirds layout, issue date, and barcodes.

The document discusses how the media product, an indie music magazine, represents particular social groups. It notes that traditionally, indie magazines portrayed white, 16-20 year olds with a stereotypical "indie look" of glasses, tees, chinos and earrings who enjoyed music festivals. However, the summary argues it now challenges this stereotype by representing a wider range of indie music and fans beyond the typical portrayal to be more inclusive.
Evaluation
The document summarizes how the media product uses conventions of real magazines and challenges some conventions. It follows conventions such as using the colors red, white, and black like music magazines NME and Q. It includes elements like the masthead, contents page, double page spreads, and cover lines that are typical of magazines. However, it challenges some conventions by having the masthead go over the subject's head rather than behind and using unconventional photos on the double page spread to portray the alternative nature of the music. The goal was to take inspiration from successful magazines but also show the personality of subjects.
Presentation media
The document discusses the student's media magazine project. It addresses how the magazine follows conventions of real magazines like NME in its front cover, contents page, and double page spread layout. It represents the mod/punk/rock social group. The target audience is 15-25 year olds who enjoy rock/indie music. Bauer Media would be a suitable distributor. The student learned about using Blogger, Paint.net, and Publisher software and feels the project fulfilled the task of creating a realistic magazine.
Evaluation for my music magazine q1
This document evaluates the author's music magazine media product in terms of how it uses and develops conventions of similar media forms.
The cover follows conventions like masthead, cover lines and barcode. It differs by not including a pull quote. The contents page includes secondary images anchored to articles. It differs by including multiple images rather than one main image.

Evaluation media
The document discusses the ways in which the author's magazine designs use and develop conventions of real magazines.
For the magazine cover, the author uses typical conventions like a masthead at the top and a medium shot for the main image. However, the placement of the strapline at the bottom challenges conventions.
For the double-page spread, the use of different colored text in a Q&A format follows conventions, while just using the subject's name for the title develops conventions.
The contents page keeps many elements conventional, like a background image and listing content, but overlaps images in a way atypical of real magazines.
The author aims to represent social group E, ages 18-25, through

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Evaluation
- 1. Evaluation of Semble Magazine -In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? Semble magazine has adopted a majority of the existing forms and conventions of real media products as well as challenging some. One example would be the masthead. As you can see there is a clear similarity between the two the mastheads .The Semble masthead is also situated in the top left third of the cover as it is in nearly all magazines, I found out in my research this is because the is the part of the magazine you’ll see on a magazine rack if the magazine is behind another so I did this also, the text and colour also matches that of the house style of the magazine. A convention I challenged is coverlines. Although they are in similar form I chose to not follow the convention of having cover lines be on the left and right thirds of the page instead I placed them all on the bottom third of the page also only included the bands names. I did this because I wanted a larger amount space for my splash feature and I kept it to the bare minimum because I feel like all those details should be in the contents page and it will hopefully encourage the reader if they see it in a store to buy it because they are more interested about the contents since it hasn’t all been spoiled by the cover.
- 2. Evaluation of Semble Magazine -In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? Semble magazine has adopted a majority of the existing forms and conventions of real media products as well as challenging some. Another example of and adopted forms and conventions is a pull quote from the magazine’s double page spread .Both quotes show the strong attitudes of the person and interests the reader to read the magazine. Also they are both situated on the cover in similar locations near the splash title or close to the subject of the main image. So I have strongly conformed with forms and conventions of pull quotes and using it gives the reader a small glimpse into what is inside and hopefully entices them to buy and read the magazine. I have also used the form of having the barcode on the front cover in the bottom right third. Using this form makes the barcode less visible yet easy to find and doesn’t subtract from rest of the cover. One other form I adopted strongly from other music magazines is the medium close up/long shot as the main image. This shows the face and style of the subject(s) of the main image. The closeness suggests a exclusivity between the magazine and the star on the cover and if the reader sees this they are likely to be attracted the exclusivity what the magazine has.
- 3. Evaluation of Semble Magazine -In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? Semble magazine has adopted a majority of the existing forms and conventions of real media products as well as challenging some. A form and convention that I challenged was the colour of the main image. Normally main images are vibrant yet semble’s cover is desaturated. I did this because I consider semble to be a magazine that takes its self very seriously when it comes to image and content. Another form and convention I followed when creating semble was the plug. I seem to have positioned the plug where it is on most music magazines (any corner) the design doesn’t really follow much of a code but the font size of buzz words (WIN) are large to draw the viewers eyes to it. A form and convention I challenged to was that the style of the double page spread matches the house style of the magazine yet in semble the subject of the double page spread band/ singer. I did this because I found the convention of using the same design and colour scheme throughout the magazine boring and since I aim towards a younger audience I thought id challenge the convention and give the reader a more varied design
- 4. Evaluation of Semble Magazine -In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? Semble magazine has adopted a majority of the existing forms and conventions of real media products as well as challenging some. One convention I followed very strongly is layouts of graphics on the contents page. A small colour box with a number inside paired with a picture and a description. I wanted to try challenge this convention but I couldn’t think of a way to do so. I designed the picture to look like a polaroid because semble considers itself to be quite serious and classic so I mirrored that with this design because a polaroid camera is a classic camera and very iconic. Something that is changing in magazines is that, to keep up with the times they are going digital. Semble considers itself to be a very with the times and having a young target audience it would be silly to not digitalise the magazine. Yet I see the importance in actual print media since it’s a dying art. Yet there is no point in shooting myself so I've made sure that semble has a good online presence so I set up Facebook, twitter and Instagram pages so we can have a consent dialogue with our fans.
