2. Main artist covering the masthead to show his Power and authority Large contrasting (white on black), bold lettering for artists name Large bold masthead at the top of the page Large main image of the artist in the centre of the page Props and accessories used to associate the artist with the genre Tagline used which lettering also contrast against its background for effect Barcode 3. Large masthead Large main image covering most of the page Writing on a different colour layered background for effect Large bold font for the artists name Bold eye catching font also used for the tagline Barcode 4. I have mainly chosen to follow the conventions of real magazine products through several aspects of my front page. However how some magazines choose to have a close up of their main artist making an intimidating eye contact with the reader, I have chosen to have challenge this approach by taking a medium shot of my main artist to incorporate into the picture his muscular physique with the desired effect of showing creating an imposing sense of power to the reader. 5. Date of the magazine clear to the reader Artist showing a gang gesture which may initiate a connection with target audience Colour scheme is maintained throughout Clear headings Page numbers for each of the articles Ways in which the reader can contact the magazine on different formats Page number Large heading 6. Magazine date Large page numbers Multiple pictures of different artists Bold headings Large heading at the top of the page Page number 7. Symbol signalling the end of the article Quote from the artist setting the scene for the article Article in the form of three columns The large T allows for an eye-catching start to the article Large image of the main artist covering half of the spread 8. Main image covering half of the page Quotes from the artist written in a different font to catch attention The article is split into three columns Large bold lettering to start the article 9. Most of the conventions are the same so the reader can recognise this is a double page spread product. Although I decided to not have a large title block and challenge a convention on this page as on the same side of the double page spread as the survey I conducted it was important to have a lengthy interview with the main artist; having a large title block would limit this and therefore wouldnt please my target audience.
