Q1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

Magazine cover:

Magazine covers have the title in bold, neat font.

They have the main story which is also written in bold, big letters similar to the title.

There is a bold indication if it is a special issue.

They have a picture from the film from the main story, often a close up. It is either the background or there is a picture and a background. The picture is photoshopped for effects.

There are titles of more articles, which are inside.

All of the texts have a colour scheme, which will involve no more than three colours that go well together.

There is the date and issue number.

There is a barcode.

My magazine cover has a bold neat title.

The main story is mentioned in the bottom looking similar to the title, to draw attention.

There is a bold indication that this is an exclusive issue.

There is a picture of the main character Kylie with a knife and this is the background. It is photoshopped and turned black and white and the saturation is increased.

There are titles of more articles that are inside the magazine.

I chose the text colour scheme of red and white, because they look professional and stand out on the black and white background.

There is a date, issue number and a website for the magazine.

There is a barcode.
