This document summarizes how the author's media product both uses conventions from real magazines as well as challenges some conventions. Specifically: - The magazine's cover repeats the "star appeal" convention from Mojo magazine but challenges conventions like long shot images and centered mastheads. - It repeats the convention of including an editor's letter but challenges the headline formatting compared to inspiration magazines. - A double page interview spread takes inspiration from Q magazine but challenges conventions like image placement and using borders and colored text to distinguish the interview.
