1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? 
 
For my magazine I chose to look at several that I could take bits from and put them all together to make mine. I looked at the front cover of a rolling stones magazine with Thom Yorke on, which I tried to make mine similar to because I liked the layout of the design, the fonts and colours used. And I liked how they layers were all put together. I then looked at a Q music magazine for the contents page, and decided to take part of that, and part from a different Q mag to make the one I produced. This worked well as Q is a very popular music magazine production company, so my contents page was the collaboration of two contents pages of a well-known and popular music mag. I then took the double page spread ideas from an NME music magazine. I looked at the vaccines double page spread, and decided I wanted to make mine how they had made theirs. With a big group picture taking up one whole page, maybe more. And then the remaining space being filled in with an interview from one of the band members or the band themselves.
