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

My media product develops and challenges forms and conventions of realmedia products in many ways.

First of all my front cover challenges real media products, as on my front cover I have put a barcode, price and date of issue, this is very similar to real magazines as thses are featured on real magazine front covers. Below is a picture of my barcode:

Here is my example of a real magazine and I am linking this, showing they have a barcode and so do I

My front cover also challenges conventions of real media products as it has the name of the magazine on it and the headings, sub headings and picture of main article inside. My contents page also challenges these conventions by listing the articles featured in the magazine and these articles have their page numbers next to them. It also has a picture of the cover story on the contents page with a short paragraph informing what the article is about and it also says 'read the full article on page 22-23', which is informing the readers well. My double page spread also uses thes conventions as it is an interview and like real magazines my interview consists of questions and answers. This spread also includes pictures of the band and a website address informing the viewers they can see more on the band if they visit this website.
