EVALUATION - Question 1

In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
My magazine cover uses cover lines. This is conforming with codes and conventions as i am not trying to make the public view differ from the norm. Cover lines are used on evey magazine cover as a lure to make you buy the magazine. My magazine also does this. The masthead on my cover is at the top of the page, again this is going along with code and conventions as all of the magazines that i could find have thier masthead at the top of the page. another magazine that use the same codes and conventions, in terms of the mast head, is GQ. 

 

My contents page follows such codes and conventions as having the page numbers to tell you what page the specific article is on. Apart from that, there aren't a lot of codes and conventions. In hindsight, i could have made this page cleaner and easier to read by putting in more text rather than filling it up with images. i could have mad it cleaner by putting all of the page numbers in one collumn doww the right or left side. This would have conformed with codes and conventions.
