evaluation question 1

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

 My media product adapts to the conventions of real media products usually used by music magazines. The masthead for example covers the main image which is usually a key convention used in magazines. My media product also has a variety of cover lines with the names of artists and the stories behind them in different colours. This makes it stand out and follow how it’s correctly done. The main image fits with the genre of the magazine which is r'n'b, hip-hop and rap, this follows the correct conventions and makes it distinguishable. I looked closely at VIBE magazine which follows the conventional characteristics in a music publication; I have tried to mirror and translate the style in my own media product in order to make it look credible.
