Masthead

My Masthead follows the codes and conventions. This is because It is placed at the top at the top of the magazine. My Masthead is

bold and it stands out ‘CHILLS’, this is because I want it to be noticeable to my audience.

Selling Line My Selling Line, again follows the codes and

conventions. This is placed at the top of the magazine but it is placed above the Masthead. The selling line is short and snappy and that is how I presented it ‘Music

just for you anytime anywhere’

Main Cover Line

My Main Cover Line follows the codes and conventions. My Main Cover Line is big and bold, this is so that it stands out and that it is noticeable to the audience. I wanted it to drag the readers attention so they know what the magazine is

going to be about.

Barcode

My Barcode is at the bottom left had side of my magazine. This follows the codes and conventions. I placed my barcode

here so that it is out of the way from the other text so were not focused on it.

Main Image My Main Image is in the middle of my front cover. This had to stand

out or else it won’t follow the codes and conventions. This

image is important because the image is what makes the reader

engaged and what to read the magazine.

Cover LinesMy Cover Lines surround my image

this is because we don’t want the magazine to look messy. This follows

the codes and conventions. Even though on most magazines the cover

lines are placed on the left third, I choose not to do that because if I

have cover lines on both sides, it will be too much writing and my target audience may not want to read my

magazine anymore.

Date Line

This follows the codes and conventions of a proper magazine. This is small and doesn’t stand out as much but the reader are still

aware of It. Under the date line is the website address. I place that where I did

because it’s not that important but I made sure the readers are still aware of it.

My small version of my front cover, follows the codes and conventions. This is so that people don’t forget how it looks like and they don’t

keep on haven to go back to look at it.

As you can see I didn’t put in Editor’s notes and that means I didn’t not follow the codes and

conventions. I didn’t do it because I wanted the categories

to all be based on music and nothing else.
