How I followed codes and conventions- One way which I followed codes and conventions is by positioning the masthead at the top of the magazine, I did this because it stands

out at the top and it would be one of the first things an audience would see when It is on a magazine stand. Another reason why the masthead is at the top of the magazine is because it suggests what genre it is and the masthead gives an idea of what the target audience would be. Its big so its easy to read.

- Another way In which I followed codes and conventions is by the main image being a mid shot and looking directly at the camera. I did this so that the main image was clear. A reason why the person in the main image is looking directly at the camera is for direct address, it makes the audience feel as if the magazine is looking at them and they feel engaged, therefor it encourages the audience to but the magazine.

- I followed codes and conventions by putting the date and issue number on the front cover, I did this so that the audince know which issue it is and so they can get them all and wont miss out.

- Another thing I did to follow codes and conventions is making the main coverline bigger than all the other coverlines, I did this because it stands out more and gives the audience a hint as to what is in the magazine and what the main stories will be in it, this will encourage the audience to buy it if they are interested in the main coverline.

- Another way which I followed codes and conventions is by having a colour scheme, this makes the magazine cover and contents page match, therefore it looks more proffesional.

- A way which I followed codes and conventions is by having a plain background wiyh not mch goin on, I did this so that it doesn ’t take the effect away from the main image or mastheads. I made the background plain so that everything else stands out more and is easier for the audience to see and read.
