How does my Double Page follow the key conventions

# data[].attributes.body
One way in which my double page follows the typical conventions is that the question and answers have been placed into two separate columns. One on the left and one on the right. This is to keep it organised and professional and not too crowded. Also, I have used a short headline at the top which just says the artists names in a very big and catchy font. This spreads over both pages to show the two pages are linked and this will appeal to the audience as they are first drawn to the artist names and this will engage them into the articles. I have then used a pull quote using the same red and white colour scheme and the same font to keep consistency and make it professional. The pull quote reads "They ain't ready for us". This will engage the readers as they will be interested in what the two artists have to say. Moving on I have used a very informal tone with the interview to make the reader feel more comfortable reading it and make it seem more realistic. This also helps the audience emphasise with the artist. Also, I have displayed a large image in the middle of the double page showing the two artists that are featured in the article. To conclude, I have displayed the page number which is another typical convention and I have used a few shapes and designs to make it more appealing and satisfying for the reader. I have also displayed the magazines website name in the bottom right.

A large image - This is of the main feature in the magazine who is being interviewed or the double page is about.

Bold text - This is to emphasise the important information and names that are talked about

Text - To display the information. Needs to be the same size throughout

Columns - Usually 2-4 to keep it looking professional and organised

Short headline - Usually just a few words to summarise the article. Usually follows the same colour scheme

Informal tone - The use of slang and informal vocabulary. Used to quite often in interviews

Page furniture - Used to give the audience any additional information about any other features or new albums etc...
The page title usually goes through both pages to show they are linked

One of the key conventions my contents page uses is the use of columns. I have done this to keep it organised and make it look professional. I have separated the main articles from the additional information the audience may want to know by placing them in completely different positions. I have named these separate sections, "Contents", "Free Spotify voucher", "Editors note", and "Why subscribe?". I have used a bright white font for the "Contents" part with a red shadow. I have made this bold and large to make it really stand out and appeal to the user as the articles beneath it are the most important element of the magazine. The information beneath listing the articles uses a simple font for the information but the same futuristic font for the artists name as this is what will most likely draw people in. For the rest of the sections I have used a bright bold white font along with a red rectangle behind it to make it stand out and look appealing and professional to the audience. The text for these sections is a default font as this information isn't as important as the actual contents of the magazine. I have also displayed social media links in the banner at the bottom which is a typical convention and I have also shown the date and issue number in the top right as this can be useful information to the users. The main image is of the main rapper who is featured in the magazine, however I have already emphasised this on the front cover so on the contents page I have made it grayscale to put more emphasis on the contents and features in the magazine. I have also used a picture of the Editor which is usually a typical convention.

Page numbers - To keep it organised and so the reader can easily navigate through different sections of the magazine

Cover lines - To make the reader aware of the more important articles

Small images - used to separate blocks of text and draw reader to certain articles/main article.

Banner - Used to advertise the next magazine issue or a feature

Editors letter - A message from the editor of the magazine to make it seem more professional

Columns - Used to layout the text in an organised way so it can easily be read

On my front cover I do not use a pull quote which is a typical convention on most magazines as it draws the audience in as they like to know what the main artist has to say. Instead, I have posted a heading beneath the artists name to give the reader some indication as to what the main article will be about and what topics may be addressed. "Releases new album" will tell the audience that the artists new album will be the main discussion topic within the magazine.

My front cover has a masthead, "WHACK" which runs across the top of the page as most mastheads do. It is large and Bold and I have used a very catchy font which stands out and appeals to the audience for this type of genre which is rap. Also, my masthead has a black fill with a thin white border, I have used contrasting colours to make it even more eye catching. In addition, I have used a frequency line and ran it through the masthead as this is appropriate and filled it red so I can use this black, white and red colour scheme throughout the rest of my magazine. The main image is positioned in the centre of the page, supporting the usual magazine conventions as this is what tends to be eye catching and appealing to the audience. It is a mid shot to show the sort of urban clothing the person is wearing and the mic that he is holding, representing rap as a genre. The model has his hood up to show rebellion and the gangster stereotype surrounding rappers. Moving on, the main heading and title of the from cover is large and bold and I have used a completely unique font for the artists name. This follows typical magazine conventions as the artist name has been made to stand out more than the other text as the audience may be familiar with the artist and this will engage them into the magazine. I have also placed a banner on the bottom which supports the normal conventions as I have placed information about the contents within the magazine. I have used a very different and futuristic font for the coverlines which looks appealing to the audience and is appropriate for a rap magazine.
My front cover has a barcode in the bottom right corner along with the price of the magazine which is a typical convention found on front covers.

Media products have certain certain characteristics which have to be followed through all media products developed. Although some magazines challenge the key conventions, the majority of them follow the same conventions as it looks more professional and of a better quality when these features are included and makes it look more appealing to the audience
