Evaluation - Q1 Brief Analysis

In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

I have created a house style throughout my products by continuously using the same colour scheme of purple, white and blue and using the same font style throughout (Bleeding Cowboys). I have also made sure the page numbers on the DPS match up to the contents page correctly, and used the same model to pose for pictures as the main featured artist on the front cover and the DPS.

I have followed most conventions when making my products, with the placement of writing on the pages the same as most music magazines and a consistent colour scheme used. The only convention I really challenged was the pose of my model on my DPS, most music magazines conventionally have the artist looking towards to the audience to try and engage them and make the magazine more sellable, however I opted to have my artist looking away from the camera as it reflected her emotions mentioned within the interview on the DPS.
