Using conventions from real media texts

I have developed my knowledge on conventions of a magazine front cover, contents page and double page spread which I have then learnt to transfer into my own work e.g. the draft of my contents page for my college magazine compared to my music magazine contents page. I have done this by looking at real music magazines of my genre which then allowed me to understand how certain things are represented in the media and how I can put them in my own magazine.



In my evaluation for my foundation portfolio I said that my preliminary work looked boring and unrealistic which I feel is because of the lack of conventions and my LIIAR analysis of various pages of magazines helped me learn how I can adapt my own magazine to be like that.

I chose to do it on kerrang! because I felt that it represents my genre well and has an eye catching design without being too over the top therefore I can recreate and interpret the design more effectively.
