In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
My front cover reflects real media products because it has one main image conveying the main headline. This image also shows direct address which means the model is looking at the audience and conveys attitude. Another way it reflects real media products is by having other headlines aside it. The barcode/issue date/price is always on the front whereas advertisments are always on the back. A stand first is also shown underneath the title.
My contents page reflect real media products because it follows a consistent colour scheme which is the same as a front cover. The title is alway repeated and it has a website for the audience to access online. Also, it shows main images and smaller images to reflect the articles. Headings divide up the articles and the arrangement page number is - text (1 or 2 words as the main line then sub line). Finally contents pages sometimes show editors letter.
My double paged article reflects real media products because the standfirst is always by the headline (largest font) and starts before the article. This introduces the article. Double page spreads are usually 3 or 4 columns. There is a bold quote that stands out from the article. The article will have a creative use of imagery and shows limited use of colour. One large image on the side of the page should mirror the article and the photographer is also credited. Headlines are creative and eye catching. Finally it reflects real media products because it shows the drop capital at the start of the article
