Question 1

My masthead would clearly be able to show people that it

is a magazine, writing the bar underneath confirms that

this is a multi-genre music magazine.

Putting my main sell right in the middle of my front cover of the magazine shows that

the magazine is full of information about this artist. Also including the screamer

makes it seem a lot more exciting, also most magazines use screamers to try and help promote what they’re selling.

From my research I found that many magazines included a note from their editors, from finding

this out I did this also in my magazine.

In all the magazine that I researched they all had at least

one image on their contents page, they also stated where

these images were going to be used, I did this also in my

magazine.

My double page spread

Example of real double page spread

When doing my research I found that a lot of

magazines had enlarged quotes within their D.P.S’s, so I made sure that I had

one in mine. Also they tended to have more than one picture so I made sure I had at least two. Also I

used columns in my writing as in all of the

magazines I researched they were all in columns, by doing this it made my magazine look more real by using the forms and

conventions.
