BMX Magazine

I think that the conventions of our magazines follows the conventions of the magazine we have recreated as we have used a similar layout to the magazine and used a photo of a very good quality for the front cover.

The conventions the cover breaks are that it doesn't have the funky writing down the left hand side of the magazine. This is because we Can't copy the exact style of writing used in the magazine.

The colour palette suits the target audience as the writing is aimed at young childrn and teen agers. The writing attracts this target audince by being funky and unique. This is achived by a chalky faded look.

Te cover lines entice the audience by giving a little bit of information on the front cover to grab the reader/audience attention to make them buy the magazine to read more about the little bit of info from the front cover.

The magazine appeals to both new and regular readers as the picture on the front cover is alomst always a striking photo. This grabs the attention of the audience and makes the reader intested.

The distributes are shops are supermarkets, these are where most magazines are sold as it is where most people are when the are spending there money.

Things i have learnt about producing a magazine front cover is that to keep it simple and not to full of information. Also to put recent news on the front cover to grab the audiences attention. To have a good photo on the front cove to make it more apealing.
