How my contents page challenges conventions

# data[].attributes.body
Most music magazines don't have social media links on the contents page. I have added it in so consumers don't have to go through the whole magazine trying to find them.

How does my double spread challenge conventions

On my double page spread the left page has the artist's name in big bold writing. Majority music magazines don't have this. Also my main image is on the right side of the page which is not usually seen in rap magazines.

- The left page is an image of the artist so readers know what the artist looks like.

- The important texts stand out because they are either bold, bigger text size or different coloured. I have done this to make it stand out and catch the readers attention.

- The second article is in rows so its easier for readers to read it, section by section.

- The second article is also in a interview format making it informal.

How my front cover challenges media conventions

How my front cover challenges media conventions

# data[].attributes.body
The bar codes tend to be at the bottom for majority magazines. However, I have challenged that convention by placing it at the top left corner underneath the masthead, with the magazines website, date it was published and price. I have done this to create more space at the bottom of the page and to make it quicker for readers to find the price .

How my front cover has developed media conventions

# data[].attributes.body
My front cover has developed typical conventions, by developing the pug. The pug for most magazines tend to be basic, two colours and tend to be smaller. My pug is three colours and larger than most pugs found on front covers to grab the readers attention and entice them to buy the magazine so they can enter my competition

How my front cover follows  media conventions

# data[].attributes.body
- Masthead is at the top of the front cover. This is seen on most magazines and nearly all rap magazines. My magazine name is 'BRONX', named after the borough in New York city. It is also known as the birth place of rap which suits in with the genre of my magazine. The main image is of an artist that is trending. Also the image is large enough, the audience can see the emotion of the artist. This is the typical convention seen in rap magazines because the artist shows some sort of attitude,which can represent a genre. Also the artist in the main image engages with the reader through eye contact and with his hands, pointing at the audience. This then grabs the audience/readers attention and entices them to buy the magazine. There is a range of fonts and font sizes, to show the importance of the text. The bigger the text the more important it is because, it is more likely to get the readers attention or its what the main article will be about.

A convention is the typical magazine layout that every standard magazine should have, for example where the masthead is located on the page, what and where the main image is, etc...

I have followed the convention of my media product because, to make it look real and professional. However, they are challenged sometimes to be unique and have the advantage over other media institutions by having that unique selling point.
