Evaluation: In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

When looking at our magazine, you can see that it is a magzine by some media conventions that are used throughout the industry. Firstly, it has a clear masthead 'Breeez' which clearly states the name of the magazine and is in the traditional place of in the top right corner. The puff 'number one for student fashion' is underneath the masthead, which is common for media magazines. This is because the puff is bigging up the magazine and therefore should be close to the main title. The mainsell is also a feature of a real media product, and our magazine has one in the centre of the page. This shows the main story in the magazine and draws the attention of the teenage target audience. There are also many screamers such as 'SHOCK!' and 'WOW!'. The date, issue number, price and barcode are also typical of a current magazine, such as Look.
