The generic conventions of magazines coverJenny McNulty
The front covers of magazines aim to attract buyers through eye-catching design elements. They establish a consistent house style through fonts, layout, color, and logos to build brand recognition and loyalty. Covers typically feature a central high-resolution celebrity image looking directly at viewers to create engagement. Additional cover lines advertise internal articles to entice purchases. Dates, prices, and web addresses round out the nonverbal communication on magazine fronts.
1) Conventions like mastheads, fonts, colors, coverlines, images and captions are used in indie magazines to attract target audiences and guide them through content in a clear, organized manner.
2) Key elements like the cover story, headlines, bylines and pull quotes are employed to highlight important stories and personalities while standfirsts and body copy inform and entertain readers.
3) Consistent branding with mastheads and color schemes gives magazines a professional, organized look that helps audiences navigate content easily.
This document discusses the conventions used in magazine design and how the student's media product follows or challenges these conventions.
The student uses common magazine design conventions like rules of thirds for layout, varying font sizes and styles for emphasis, and consistent branding across the front cover, contents page, and articles. However, the student challenges some conventions by using "This Week" instead of "Contents" and including a subscription promotion on the contents page. Overall, the student aims to create a professional magazine that follows real industry standards while putting their own spin on some elements.
Magazine production evaluation - Question 1ConnorDelaney
The document discusses how the magazine production uses conventions of real magazines.

It also discusses some ways the magazine challenges conventions, like using "This Week" instead of "Contents" and including a subscription promotion on the contents page. Overall, the document shows an understanding of common magazine conventions and how the student's magazine production applies and develops those conventions across multiple pages.
Magazine cover analysis of q by dominic hayesdomhayes03
- The Q Magazine cover uses a simple color palette of red, gold, white, and black. It follows the rule of thirds design principle with the large masthead in the top left third.
- The main image is a close-up portrait of Jay-Z, placed in the center to attract attention. His serious expression presents him as a serious artist who has achieved fame and success in the music industry.
- Additional lines promote other artists in the issue, suggesting it contains interviews and articles on multiple popular music stars to appeal to a wide audience of fans.
This media product develops and challenges conventions of real music magazines in the following ways:
1. Common magazine design elements like headers, mastheads, cover lines, and fonts are used to look professional and establish continuity.
2. Photographs of the artist are featured prominently on the cover and inside pages following conventions, while customized elements like colors and layouts make it distinct from other magazines.
3. The contents page includes section headings, images, page numbers and a sidebar - all conforming to typical magazine style - to help readers navigate easily.
This document discusses how the media product uses conventions of real music magazines. It summarizes:
1) The front cover uses images from a photo shoot and a plain background, following conventions. Coverlines are relevant to the genre and use buzzwords like "Exclusive."
2) The contents page uses bold category headlines, images that anchor to coverlines, and sublines that provide extra information without revealing all.
3) The double page spread uses a title that bleeds across pages to link them, follows conventions by using a band's own font for their name, and includes a collage of images on one page like real magazines.
The document discusses conventions used in indie magazines. It summarizes that magazines use sans-serif fonts, bright colors suited to the indie genre, coverlines on the left page, headings to split contents, images and captions to provide insight, and consistent color schemes. The same layout elements like mastheads, cover stories, bylines, pull quotes, and body copy are used to attract audiences and make the magazines look professional.
The document discusses conventions of magazine front covers and how the author's media product challenges or develops some of those conventions. Specifically:
- The product uses a conventional masthead but with a foreign language title to seem more sophisticated.
- It uses fewer cover stories and lines in a smaller font to imply a mature audience interested in content over flashy graphics.
- Non-traditional elements like price and lack of additional graphics target an older demographic.
- The boost image features a saxophone but the artist plays ukulele, challenging expectations of jazz music.
The document summarizes how the media product, a magazine, uses and develops conventions of real magazines. It discusses using inspiration from other magazines' contents pages, mastheads, titles, barcodes, fonts, and photo styles. While copying conventions to appear like a real magazine, it also challenges some conventions, using fewer photos and softer colors atypical of music magazines to appeal more to its target female audience.
1. The magazine cover uses some conventions of real magazines, such as placing the masthead at the top center and using colorful, eye-catching images. However, it also challenges some conventions by placing the barcode on the left side rather than the price.
2. The contents page follows conventions such as including the magazine logo, title, date, and variety of colorful artist images. It challenges conventions slightly by making the page numbers and headlines bolder to stand out more.
3. Overall, the magazine uses standard forms and conventions of real magazines but also develops and challenges some conventions, such as the unconventional barcode and coverline colors and bolder design elements on the contents page.
The document summarizes the key conventions and codes used in music magazines that the author incorporated into their own music magazine project. Some of the main conventions included mastheads, cover lines, quotes from artists, large cover images, contents pages with headings and listings of articles, double page interviews with photos and introductory comments, and consistent color schemes and fonts throughout. The author analyzed real music magazines to incorporate standard elements like mastheads, barcodes, and subscription boxes to make their magazine seem professional and realistic.
This document summarizes the front cover, contents page, and double page article layout of a music magazine called "Amp Volume".
[1] The front cover uses conventions like mastheads, strip lines, cover lines with images, barcodes, and advertisements to attract audiences.
[2] The contents page lists article headings in bright colors and includes a subscription box. Most magazines include cover images and editor summaries.
[3] Double page articles typically feature large central quotes and images that portray lifestyles and target audiences. Conventions like white text on black backgrounds are used.
The document evaluates how the author's music magazine prototype uses, develops, and challenges conventions of real music magazines.
The masthead, cover images, and color scheme generally follow conventions but the masthead font and central cover lines introduce some challenges. Inside, the contents page connects to the cover visually while using an unconventional dark background color. Photographs and articles follow conventions through layout and sequencing but also introduce some innovative elements. Overall, the evaluation shows an attempt to balance familiar magazine conventions with new design risks.

Chris Bolin, Senior Intelligent Automation Architect Anika Systems
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Keywords: AI, Containeres, Kubernetes, Cloud Native

Lee Barnes - Path to Becoming an Effective Test Automation Engineer.pdfleebarnesutopia
So… you want to become a Test Automation Engineer (or hire and develop one)? While there’s quite a bit of information available about important technical and tool skills to master, there’s not enough discussion around the path to becoming an effective Test Automation Engineer that knows how to add VALUE. In my experience this had led to a proliferation of engineers who are proficient with tools and building frameworks but have skill and knowledge gaps, especially in software testing, that reduce the value they deliver with test automation.
In this talk, Lee will share his lessons learned from over 30 years of working with, and mentoring, hundreds of Test Automation Engineers. Whether you’re looking to get started in test automation or just want to improve your trade, this talk will give you a solid foundation and roadmap for ensuring your test automation efforts continuously add value. This talk is equally valuable for both aspiring Test Automation Engineers and those managing them! All attendees will take away a set of key foundational knowledge and a high-level learning path for leveling up test automation skills and ensuring they add value to their organizations.

2. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms
and conventions of real media products?
Barcode conventionally found in
the corner of the cover
Main image is a mid-shot with the
subject showing direct address to
draw the audience in and create
reader intimacy. Shots on covers
conventionally vary widely
therefore this shot could be
considered conventional
Conventional list of bands to attract
the appropriate audience- shows
the genre of the magazine and the
type of music the magazine focus’
on
Conventional puff offers something
free to attract the audience.
Header is sometimes used for this
I have used an AutoShape to create
a strip of colour to background
some cover lines and applied a
smudge tool to the end to soften
the edge and create an interesting
shape. This develops conventions
as it is a design element which is
not convention
3. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms
and conventions of real media products?
I have applied a gradient to the
background in order to add depth
and prevent the background from
being block white. The gradient on
the example magazine is applied
from the bottom of whereas it
comes from the right hand corner
on my magazine
Cover lines are bold and designed
to catch the attention of the
audience by addressing subjects
they would be particularly
interested in (e.g. festivals and
bands)
Date and price is conventionally
found above or below the
masthead in a small font with does
not particularly stand out
Masthead is bold and large as is
typical of a masthead as it is the
recognisable and defining feature
of a magazine. I purposely chose a
font that is slightly dishevelled to
reflect the attitude of the target
audience- young, care-free and
partially rough around the edges
4. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms
and conventions of real media products?
I have used a conventional grab
quote on the cover to entice the
audience to want to read on
further about the cover star rather
than a typical strapline
Instead of using a conventional
bullet point I have taken a photo of
a plectrum and resized it in order
for it to be an appropriate size
Although the puff is conventional
from the aspect of offering
something free, it challenges
conventions as the background to
the text is not a shape as usually
found but a series of rectangles
used as strips behind the text
The ‘S’ in my masthead is a photo I
have taken of guitar lead- this
challenges conventions as
mastheads are usually just made up
of text
I have included the web address of
the magazine’s website on the
cover subtly by positioning it
horizontally on the last letter of the
masthead- this is not conventional
of a music magazine
5. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms
and conventions of real media products?
The layout conventionally conforms to the
rule of thirds. The main image largely
dominates the right two thirds on both
covers- leaving the left third free for cover
lines. This challenges conventions as the
image is usually found in the middle of a
cover. The eye line conventionally falls on the
line of the top third.
There is a mixture of fonts which provides
variety- some bold and some more sparse.
Majority of fonts are sans serif to connote the
colloquial tone of the magazine which would
target the indie-pop sub-culture
The colour scheme of my magazine follows
the convention of using only black and white
combined with one colour. I used the colour
purple as the dark shade is subtle and adds
sophistication to the cover
On my magazine the colloquial tone is
created using language such as ‘the new kid
on the block’ and addressing the reader using
pronouns such as ‘you’ and ‘your’. This would
target a sub-culture who are more likely to
respond to the use of conversational
language. It is conventional to address your
audience in the appropriate manner
6. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms
and conventions of real media products?
As my magazine is monthly, I have added
the text ‘This Month’ next to ‘INSIDE’ to
indicate that it is released monthly. This is
conventional as some magazines such as
NME use ‘this week’ on their contents page
Use of subtitles organises page references
and provides the reader with ease to find
particular features they want to read.
I have challenged conventions with my
subtitles by making the text so large that it
goes over the edges of the shape behind-
making it blend in with the background.
However, the size, font and contrast
between the black and white ensure the
text still stands out
Conventional anchoring text indicates the
relevance of this image. It is also common
for the size of anchoring text to be very
small
My editor’s letter is in the form of a photo
of an actual piece of paper which I have
digitally added text to. It is conventional for
an editors letter to be featured on a
contents page however they are not always
present. I have developed conventions by
using a photo of an actual piece of paper.
7. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms
and conventions of real media products?
It is conventional for the issue to be dated
on the contents page- this usually consists of
the month and year but sometimes includes
a specific date. I have positioned the date on
my cover horizontally, next to the text ‘THIS
MONTH’ so the information is clear. I have
challenged conventions by positioning it in
this way and using a photo of a guitar strap
behind it as a background/ design feature
It Is conventional for a contents page to
feature a reference to the masthead in
some way- whether it be a small version of
it or text in the same font. I have used the
same font for the title ‘INSIDE’ and also used
the photo of the guitar lead as the ‘S’ to
create consistency
Minimal use of serif font is conventional for
magazines such as mine to display an
informal/ colloquial tone
I have incorporated a background on my
contents page which I manipulated first in
Photoshop. It appears to be a splatter of
paint and adds interest and texture to the
design. This is developing conventions as it
is an original image that I have creatively
incorporated
8. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms
and conventions of real media products?
The layout conventionally conforms
to the rule of thirds in some aspects.
The image on the right mainly falls in
the right third however the page
reference section and editors letter
fall into two halves rather than three
thirds therefore this challenges
conventions
There is a mixture of fonts which
provides variety- as there is on the
cover. I have used mostly the same
fonts as what can be found on the
cover in order to create a house
style and prevent the overall product
from looking untidy or
unprofessional.
The colour scheme is also consistent
with the cover however I have
incorporated more purple on the
contents than what can be found on
the cover. This is due to the colour of
the background and the adjustment
of colour to the image on the right
hand side
9. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms
and conventions of real media products?
A colloquial tone is consistent in
order to ensure I am addressing
my target audience: a sub-culture
who are more likely to respond to
the use of conversational
language. Colloquial language can
be found in both the editors letter
and in page references
It is conventional to find a
‘subscribe’ section on contents
page which offers special offers
and free gifts to anyone who signs
up. This sections often features
small images of previous magazine
covers- I considered this but
realised it would not work as well
due to this being the first issue of
Released
10. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms
and conventions of real media products?
A conventional standfirst can be found
underneath the headline on my double page
spread which indicates the content of the
article
Attitude shown by the subject of the main
image appears laid back yet intense due to
direct address- this type of pose is
conventional of a main image but varies
depending on the story being told my the
image
It is conventional to find a headline on a
double page spread- this may sometimes
just say the artist’s name. My large,
ambiguous headline challenges conventions
through the layout of the words- some
horizontal, some vertical- and the use of
varying fonts
A convention that I haven’t incorporated
into the article is a crosshead. I did not use a
crosshead as I felt the article was already
appropriately organised using paragraphs
It is conventional to find a byline when an
article is featured in order to credit the
journalist- this is often in small font which
does not particularly stand out. My byline
follows these conventions
11. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms
and conventions of real media products?
Photo credit can be found horizontal to the
image. Conventional small and discreet font
used for the photo credit as to not distract
from the content.
I have used a conventional drop-cap.
However, after looking at other real media
products I feel using a more interesting font
for the drop-cap would be more successful
Font used for the article is Times New
Roman. It is conventional to use a small serif
font for the article
I have used a conventional grab-quote to
break up the text in the article so that it is
not one large block of writing. I have used
purple text and large speech marks to
indicate that it is a grab-quote. I have
developed conventions by using an
unconventional font for the speech marks
12. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms
and conventions of real media products?
A link can be found between the
colours in the subject’s clothes and
the colours used in the design- this
creates consistency and links the
image well within the piece. The
colours used in the design are
minimal and are consistent with the
house style
The tone of the double page spread
is created using colloquial language
within the article and the light-
hearted headline- ‘Here’s to the lives
of the young and foolish’ which
conjures images of a group of people
raising their glasses. It is
conventional within a magazine such
as mine which aims to connect with
a young audience for a colloquial
tone to be used.
The layout follows conventions as it
is common to see a double page
spread which is made up of a page
containing the article and the
opposite page displaying the main
image. The layout of the article is
conventional as it is sorted into
three columns- articles of this kind
are always split into at least two
columns
13. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms
and conventions of real media products?
Inspiration
I got the idea of using a large opaque letter
behind the text/ content of the double page
spread from this double page spread featuring
Lady Gaga in Q Magazine. Q have developed
conventions by creating this design feature- this
is not a common convention therefore I am also
developing conventions by doing so.
I was inspired by the editorial letter in NME that
featured on page of reviews. A small picture of
the editor is conventionally found with an
editor’s letter however using a Polaroid form
and paper clip develops this convention. I
decided to use the same format for the picture
of my editor. I took a picture of a paperclip and
edited it in Photoshop to make It appear to be
actually attached to the paper
This picture of Pete Doherty influenced the shot
type I wanted to use for my double page spread.
When I saw this double page spread featuring
Friendly Fires from Q magazine I wanted to
combine the shot type with a photo that had a
narrative of a police line up. I developed
conventions by combining the two ideas and
using paint to create a suitable background.
14. How does your media product represent particular social groups?
A particular social group that has developed quickly
recently within the younger generation is ‘indie’ which
stands for individual. ‘Indies’ are generally associated
‘Indie’ with indie music and attempting to stand out from the
crowd- whether that be through their attitude, the way
they dress or their general appearance (piercings,
unconventional coloured hair, etc) I have attempted to
represent this sub-culture by challenging conventions by
using original photos and AutoShapes in a creative way.
15. How does your media product represent particular social groups?
GENDER ETHNCITY AGE
Diversity in gender is provided The people featuring in my The people featuring in my

This shows I need diversity of particular social group.
ethnicities photographs instead
of just one ethnicity.
16. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and
why?
IPC Media have extensive knowledge on
publishing a magazine such as mine due to
being the publisher of the music magazine
NME. This would be an advantage for my
magazine and I feel IPC Media may benefit
from publishing Released as it is aimed at a
different demographic (aged 16-24, C2, D, E
profile). However, IPC would be unlikely to
publish a magazine so similar to NME due to
the possibility of compromising the sales of
their already successful and established
magazine.
Also, NME is the only music magazine that IPC
publishes, and although it is a successful
magazine, this would mean that they do not
have as extensive knowledge on pitching a
music magazine to a younger audience as
perhaps other publishing institutions.
17. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and
why?
Bauer Media are the publishers of a wide
variety of magazines- varying from those that
target niche markets such as golfers and
gardeners to those that appeal to a wider
audience such as Q and Heat.
I think Bauer Media would be the right publisher
for my magazine as their extensive knowledge
regarding pitching to a certain age group/
market would assist in marketing my magazine.
Also, they publish a variety of music magazines
such as Q, MOJO and KERRANG; proving that
they can successfully market several music
magazines designed to target varying
audiences.
18. Who would the audience be for your media product?
My target audience is both males and females aged 16-24 years old.
Since my audience is fairly young they are unlikely to be high earners
due to the fact they are either still in education or currently working
their way up in the working world. Taking this into consideration, my
magazine is aimed at a C2, D, E profile. The ethnicity my magazine
targets is widely varied because it would be distributed in the U.K: a
place where culture is diverse and multiculturalism is prominent. Most
of my audience would have an aspirer’s psychographic profile,
however some may be mainstreamers. This is because younger
generations tend to aspire for a higher social status and may feel that
conforming in some aspects as reading a magazine like Released
may grant such social class.
Editor's Notes
What different areas of society are represented in your magazine? Do you represent a sub-culture e.g. ‘emos’, ‘goths’, ‘hoodies’. Do you deal with issues of race, ethnicity, gender, age, social class, disability?
