What is the effect of the conventions?
Bold Masthead: The effect that the bold masthead is that it attracts people to it, therefore informing people of what the magazine is about. As well as the positioning of it being in the primary optical area which is the effect because it is in the route of the eye. This is conventional to the type of the genre because of the colours used, the dark red and black are very manly colours which the genre Indie/Rock targets.
What is the effect of the conventions?
Coverlines are effective because they draw attention to the main issue that the main body of text is about, this therefore means that it is effective because it gives the reader and insight into what the article is going to be about. The coverlines are conventional because of the type of colours that are used because the colours connotes a very manly feel which is effective for the Indie/Rock genre.
What is the effect of the conventions?
Pull quotes are effective to my genre because this give thought provoking quotes that will spark thoughts by the reader to read the main body of text. The quote is conventional to indie rock because of the colloquial language used without swear words which is conventional to my target audience.
What is the effect of the conventions?
The three columns are effective because they are easy to read and more easily split up. The columns are conventional to an indie rock genre because of the type of text used as well as the font that is used throughout. This is effective because it is more stereotypical to the type of genre that it targets therefore making it more conventional for the reader.
What is the effect of the conventions?
The subscription is effective because it is very conventional to the type of genre that I am using because it allows the reader to create a direct link between the magazine and the person. T
