My contents page features most of the conventions seen in most music magazine contents pages, for example: a clear title of contents, images relating to the articles and non-chronological page numbers. I've also tried to use the same house style and colour scheme as the front cover of the magazine. The contents page is similar to the contents page from Q Magazine (above) because the colour schemes are very similar and the column being on the left with similar fonts. They also both use a large image with a smaller unassociated image below it. I've tried to challenge the normal conventions of a magazine contents page by keeping the page quite basic and simple, rather than filling it with a lot of pictures and pugs. This makes it easier for the reader to find the page they’re looking for whilst the page still remains aesthetically pleasing.

My double page spread features many of the main conventions such as: a large picture, pull quotes, drop caps and columns. I've also made sure to adhere to a clear house style as well as the colour scheme of red, black and white. Like the magazines above, I chose to use a whole page solely for a close up image of the artist. This is done in order to draw attention to them and make it clear who the article is about. To develop and challenge the normal conventions of a double page spread I used a faded image of the artist as a backdrop for the text. This is rarely seen in most music magazines but I feel it works well and doesn't negatively impact on the text at all.

My magazine front cover uses many of the main media conventions, including: a large eye-catching masthead and headline, a straplines, a pug, a banner. I have also tried to stick to a clear layout and visual syntax, which starts from the masthead the goes to the picture and headline before going left to the column. My front cover is fairly similar to the example of VIBE shown above which is a magazine that focuses on rap and hip-hop music, just like mine. I've tried to develop some conventions by using a box behind one of the lures, this made it more eye-catching to the reader but is rarely utilised on music magazine front covers.
