2. Question 1.
Q) How does your product use or
challenge conventions and how
does it represent social groups or
issues?

3. The determinant of my music
magazine is the cover page. It
attracts the audience towards it
especially the young adults. I
researched into many things and
noticed that many magazines have
their name printed behind the

5. In my knowledge I think that the most
important aspect to sell a magazine, is the
cover page. If it appeals the buyer and
catches his/her eye, they are compelled to
buy it. The editor should make the cover
page look different from that of other
magazines and continue making it look
different so that the customers do not get
bored. Which is why I tried my level best to
make my cover look unconventional, so that
is is more captivating.

6. The pattern I used in my content
page is entirely based on music,
so it guides and appeals the buyer.
I have labeled the page numbers
on the images which indicate the reader to
take a look inside.

7. Choice of Genre.
Pop is a term that originally derives from an abbreviation of "popular". The
genre I have selected for my magazine is “POP”. POP music is very
marketable worldwide as it boast up from 1950’s, it is extracted from
ROCK and ROLL.
The term "pop song" is first recorded as being used in 1926. According to
Grove Music Online, the term "pop music" "originated in Britain in the mid-
1950s as a description for rock and roll and the new youth music styles.
Since the late 1950s, however, pop has had the special meaning of non-
classical music.

catching for young adult audience. The
Content of my magazine “Double The
Trouble” and offer of a free music CD attracts
