Similarities and Differences of Music Magazines

In this task I was asked to look into 6 different music magazine front covers and analyse there codes and conventions, then once I had done this compare both similarities and differences throughout the covers I had analysed. In this task I learned all about the codes and conventions that magazine covers have and I now know about what they should have if they are a bigger magazine name and a smaller magazine name etc. This task will help me when creating my own because I know all the codes and conventions to put in to attract my target audience, to make it look as realistic to a normal music magazine as possible and the purpose of all the different codes and conventions that are used.
