Here is how my media product uses, develops and challenges forms and conventions on the conents page of real media products.
No.9 Competition- one of the main features on my contents page is the competition. It stands out and your attention is drawn to it. As you can see there is no competition on the mixmag contents page.
No.10 Article- this is something i have never seen in mixmag before. I thought my "clubber of the month" idea was really good as it gets the public involved and gives someone a chance to be featured in the magazine. This i believe would appeal to my target audience as on a night out it is common to get a good picture of someone and i'm sure their mates would love to see one of their own pictures in a magazine. this is one of the main ways in which i have developed the forms and conventions of this real media product.
No. 11 main picture- In mixmag there is a large picture which takes up a lot of space on the contents. instead of doing this i chose to put more information on the page. instead of having one main large picture i've used a few pictures all roughly the same size which again are directly linked with the article.
House style- throughout my whole magazine i have used the same text type and colours. I have also used a recognisable logo. Mixmag doesn't have a house style. Again here i have challenged what you would usually see in a dance music magazine. If i were to produce another magazine i would again use the same texts and logo but would change the colour scheme to a different three colours. I think having a house style makes the magazine memorable.
