The document discusses how a media product uses, develops, and challenges conventions of real media. Specifically, it summarizes: 1) The magazine takes inspiration from indie and jazz magazines in its photos and aims to fuse the cocky individualism of indie with the class and sophistication of jazz. 2) The front cover uses conventions like a masthead but aims for a hand-drawn, rough style to break from other music magazines. 3) The contents page similarly follows real magazine conventions but uses a rustic, polaroid-style to distance itself from gossip magazines. 4) The double-page spread uses columns and interviews but breaks conventions with its color scheme and individually styled models.

In What Ways Does Your Media Product Use
The document discusses how the media product, a magazine, challenges conventions of existing music magazines by combining indie and jazz genres. It uses photos and styles from both indie and jazz magazines but aims to fuse them into a unique style that represents fun-loving yet sophisticated music fans. While maintaining typical magazine structures like mastheads and columns, unconventional design elements like rough fonts, Polaroids, and unusual color schemes add an indie flair. Photos of eclectic, individualistic subjects further distance it from typical gossip magazines to appeal to serious music lovers.
Question 1
The document discusses the design choices made for a music magazine. The author incorporated conventional magazine design elements like a central cover image, masthead at the top, and varying font sizes. The cover model and black/blue/white color scheme suggested the genre as urban/rock. Layouts like the contents page and double page spread used consistent black backgrounds and drew from magazines like Vibe. The central cover image of a 16-year old R&B artist perfectly targeted the intended audience.
Evaluation question 1
The document discusses how the media product follows conventions of real music magazines in its design and layout. It includes several design elements commonly found in music magazines, such as a masthead, limited use of images, consistent color scheme and fonts, inclusion of cover lines and quotes, page numbers on the contents page, and contact information. However, it also challenges some conventions by using the image as the background of an article spread rather than just featuring the image, and by keeping the actor's appearance consistent across images rather than varying outfits. The document analyzes both how the product adheres to typical magazine structures and conventions as well as how it diverges from some expectations.
Codes & Conventions
The document discusses how the author's media product uses and challenges conventions of real magazines. It describes including common magazine elements like a masthead, page numbers, fonts, and color scheme to make the product look like a real magazine. The author incorporated aspects of mastheads from other pop magazines and used a bright color scheme typically seen in magazines targeted at females. Different fonts were used for the masthead, cover lines, and contents page to separate elements and engage readers in a style consistent with other pop magazines. Photography was done in a professional studio setting mimicking how artists are portrayed in real magazines. Overall, the author aimed to follow conventions from real pop magazines to make their media product look authentic.

Mia Harrison's magazine uses, develops, and challenges conventions of real media in the following ways:
1) The magazine cover takes inspiration from existing magazines like Billboard and Vogue in its use of a natural background and font positioning, but develops these conventions by placing the masthead at the bottom rather than the side.
2) The contents page develops conventions by adding a banner and using color consistently, and challenges conventions by using a background image rather than plain color.
3) The double-page spread uses darker colors behind text like a sample magazine, but develops boxed text conventions by outlining some text lighter gray for visual interest. It also challenges conventions by making the feature image smaller to add more text
Final Presentation
The document discusses the design choices made for a new music and fashion magazine. It aimed to combine music, fashion, and beauty in a stylish yet simple way. Inspired by magazines like Vogue and Elle, it uses a serif font for the masthead and titles, keeps colors limited to black and cream, and features full-page model photos on the cover and interior pages to highlight fashionable styles. Reader feedback found the magazine's layout and resemblance to Vogue to be its strongest aspects.
Music Magazine Double Page Spread Layout Options
The document discusses different magazine article layouts that the author likes and wants to use as inspiration for their own music magazine. Specifically, the author likes how one layout uses a large, eye-catching main picture contrasting with the monochrome text. Bold drop letters stand out and make the article visually appealing. The columns of text are nicely spaced out while still looking aesthetically pleasing. Another double-page spread uses a bold background photo covering the entire spread that brings life to the article. The text is organized around the photo in an artistic yet easy-to-read format. A different spread uses many large pictures and little text, attracting a new audience who doesn't want long articles.
Q1 evaluation
The document discusses how the media product of a rock music magazine challenges conventions. It uses an anarchic layout for the contents page with varied fonts and colors. The header and main image give a rock aesthetic rather than a generic format. The article features candid instead of professional photos and a relevant heading font and graphic. Challenging conventions further could include an anarchic cover, first-person article style rather than interviews. The genre of rock is known for clashing with norms in music and lifestyle, which the magazine aims to represent through its aesthetic.

Mario Pinto researched two hip hop magazines, Vibe and XXL, to inform the design of their own magazine on hip hop, R&B, and rap. For the contents page, Pinto displayed photos on one side and features on the other, similar to Vibe's vertical layout. For the double page spread, Pinto took inspiration from XXL by placing a photo of a "badman" character on the left side with text on the right, dividing the spread effectively. Pinto aimed to emulate the professional look of the magazines by using bold colors and fonts that stood out against the backgrounds.

Mia Hyde is designing a magazine called BEAT that focuses on rhythm and blues (R&B) and indie rock music. She conducts research on R&B, including its origins in the 1940s from blues and jazz. Mia decides to change the focus to indie rock to better appeal to her target audience. She explores different photography techniques like close-ups, medium shots, and landscapes. Mia works on layouts, adjusting images and text on the cover and double page spread. She encounters challenges in placement but finds solutions to create a cohesive design for her music magazine.
My evaluation
On the front cover of the magazine, the author uses a male model represented as a bit of a thug to appeal to the target male audience of late teens. Throughout the magazine, the author aims to represent the target audience of middle class teenagers through the casual clothing and appearances of the models. While trying to include diversity, the magazine unintentionally shows bias towards featuring only white British people due to limitations. The author considers publishers like IPC who distribute similar magazines as potential partners due to their large audience reach and expertise in marketing magazines across different platforms.

It outlines several essential elements for the front cover including the masthead, puffs, cover line, central image, features, and straplines. The contents page includes images, features, masthead and cover line to clearly show what is inside. Double page spreads use a central image, masthead, cover line, and quotes to look interesting and professional. Font and graphic choices are made to appeal to rebellious older teenagers, including a rough masthead font and a central image of an interview subject wearing a mysterious rabbit mask.

Evaluation
Mia Harrison's magazine takes inspiration from existing indie magazines and artists to develop its conventions. The brick wall background on the cover is meant to look natural, inspired by Billboard magazine. The font and masthead positioning are developed from Vogue. The masthead placement at the bottom of the cover comes from 'Carmen' magazine. On the contents page, a banner and yellow color establish the house style, and a natural background image is used inspired by another magazine. A double page spread uses darker colors behind text inspired by a contents page and centers the main image at the bottom left. The magazine represents older indie artists through a double page profile of a 1990s band member and their family/former bandmates.

In What Ways Does Your Media Product Use
- 1. In what ways does your media product use, develop and challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
- 2. I used photos from indie magazines such as Artrocker and Jazz magazines such as Jazzwise. I also looked at various photo’s on the internet which represent the Indie and Jazz culture. As you can see, the images on either side of the page contrast each other. The indie photo’s I found showed cocky, hedonistic youths and the jazz photos I found showed sophistication and class. I wanted to fuse these traits together and create fun loving, individual image which has a sense of class and sophistication in the music they listen to.
- 3. Front Cover
- 7. I used the same sans serif font as the front cover and used a masthead to show the month of the issue. I used a column which is a structure for contents pages used in real media products. I arranged the photo’s to look like old, Polaroid shots which adds to the rustic and classy feel of the magazine . I wanted to distance my magazine from gossip magazines and therefore put separate headlines in a sans serif font to divide the contents into separate areas – all music orientated to show my magazine is for serious, possibly pretentious music lovers. I used a sub-heading to create a fresh, quirky image for the contents page.
