This document compares the forms and conventions used in the student's magazine to real magazines like NME and Kerrang. It analyzes the front covers, contents pages, and double page spreads. While the student used real magazines as references for layouts and ideas, they developed their own designs and content to make the magazine original. The analysis found similarities like central images but also differences in things like color schemes and amount of content. The student aimed to recreate real magazine styles and formats to produce a successful magazine.
