The document discusses the development and challenges made to conventions of real music magazines in the author's media product of a magazine called "Pierced". Research was conducted on conventions of rock and indie magazines regarding layout, design elements like colors, and content types. The front cover, contents page, and double page spread aim to follow conventions like use of reds, images, and pull quotes, while also challenging conventions such as not including eye contact or full names. In conclusion, the media product conveys real magazine conventions through consistent colors and images while also developing conventions in challenged elements.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Question 1
1. Question 1: In what
ways does your media
product use, develop
or challenge forms
and conventions of
real media products
2. My research
To start with I looked up and researched the Iconic connotations
of a music magazine. I looked for different genres, how these
genres attract there target audience, what genre of music was
most popular and the different conventions there are within the
different genres. After doing this I particularly liked the idea of
the rock and indie magazines, and the connotations for these
types of magazines are darks or the use of shades (black, white),
the use of reds. I found that quite often on the front cover of a
rock magazine there was a male artist rather then a female and I
think this was because in the rock genre there are more male
artists then there are women. I also found that the target
audience for these magazine are usually the same both male
and female.
3. My media product of a music magazine
shows my development of how it
challenges and conforms to the forms
of real music magazines, on my front
cover, contents page and double page
spread. When looking at a front cover
of a music magazine for example NME
you can see the conventions that rock
magazines tend to follow and what I
tried to follow.
4. NME
The red title of this
rock magazine shows
clear conventions of
the magazine genre,
this is one of the
conventions I
followed.
Here they have put
an image that will
be one from inside
the magazine
drawing the target
audience in I found
this very common
in rock magazines
and indie
magazines as well, I
also used an image
like this on my front
cover I even used
more then one.
In nearly all of the
rock magazines I
looked at or in
music magazines in
general there was
always a puff &
plug advertising an
event or a prize, I
also used one.
The black
background to the
letters I found was
very common in rock
and indie magazines
sometimes they can
be white with black
writing and in indie
magazines
sometimes even
bright colors such as
pinks and blues, I
attempted to use
this with out making
it look blocky.
5. NME
More use of reds
on the front cove
of the magazine
following the
codes and
conventions.
Male artist on
the front
cover genre
convention, I
also used a
male artist as I
believed this
to be true.
Eye contact with
the audience/
reader,
conventions of
magazines, I
included this
with in the
image I took for
my magazine
cover.
Quotes from
articles within
the magazines
trying to draw
the audience in, I
did not include a
quote on my
front cover of my
magazine.
6. My front cover
For my magazine I decided to chose rock
and indie as I found out that within todays
music, teens and young adults are into
music that could be described as different.
Here is my front cover. After doing most of
my research on rock and indie magazines
such as karreng, NME and Q I noticed
common conventions that I have tried to
follow, for example I could my magazine
PIERCED as when listening to rock music
the sound can be described as being quite
piercing. I used the conventions of having
the title in red but I did not use a bold,
black out line like what can be seen
through many rock magazines, because I
decided to challenge the conventions of
the rock magazine and have a black and
white cover photo and if I decided to
outline the title with black it would not
look right in my opinion.
7. Q contents page
Continues to
use the colours
red onto the
contents page,
as in most
magazine being
continues
through out is a
key convention.
Includes feature of
the next months
magazine.
Including this
within magazines
is very common
just not on the
contents page
usually on the back
ground.
Page numbers on
the posters to
indicate were
they are going to
be with in the
magazine
another key
convention of
music magazines.
Includes an image
of the artist who
will be on the
double page
spread article or
will be in an article
in general.
8. My contents page
Here is my contents page as you can see it
continues the design and colours as the front
cover using reds and blacks. I looked at
different contents pages from different
magazines to get an idea of what content
would be in the magazine. I chose to have
four pictures on my contents page the main
one being of matt watts as the biggest picture
on the page, as he is going to be the main part
of this issue, and this follows the conventions
of a music rock magazine. On the contents
page I chose a different photograph to the
front cover to show that I understand the
codes and conventions of music magazines.
At the bottom of the page I added a contest
within my contents page, as it says on the
front page in the puff and plug on
competitions, so my contents links to the
front cover.
9. Double page spread of a rock
magazine
The artist of the
magazine will
have there eyes
directed at the
audience to pull
them in also the
use of the
clothing the
artist is wearing
is red and this
consists with the
codes and
conventions of
a rock genre
magazine.
The black
outline to the
quote at the
top is a key
convention to a
rock magazine
though they all
are not
designed like
this others can
just be a simple
black outline.
The article
itself is not
very big at all
its usually
written in
small writing
to make it
look smaller
11. My double page spread.
Here I have my double page spread, I have chosen to challenge
the codes and conventions of music magazines as I have decided
to have my artist not looking at the camera, meaning there is no
eye contact with the audience I did this because it makes him
seem more mysterious. I also did this because I believe that
matt watts is a very famous person so why should he need to
show his face when they will know who he is, I thought the
same thing about placing the image in front of the text stating
his name because I believe they don’t need to see his whole
name to know who he is. I included pull quotes into my work to
show that I understood the codes and conventions of a rock
magazine I also kept the colour scheme of using the reds and
blacks the same as well as the fonts as this is also a convention
of music magazines.
12. To conclude.
In what ways does your media product use, develop or
challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
To conclude my media product dose convey conventions of real
media products such as the consistency of using the same
colours on the front cover, contents page and the double page
spread. I also used different images of the same artist so it did
not look repetitive and I also made sure the genre magazine I
chose, which was rock, conformed to the magazines that were
already out there such as Karreng and so on. Although I did
challenge some aspects to the genre I think my magazine
develops the conventions of a real media product as it should.
