Evaluation Question 1 In what way does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of a real media product? (Contents page)

My contents page consists of the same colour scheme as my front page. It has browns, maroons and reds along with blacks. This is also reflected through the tones of the images that were all also taken with my nikon D40, 50mm lens. With the guitar pictures on the left hand side I added a colour layer to add that maroon tinge into the background that was originally black when it was first taken.

This page has a website on the left under the guitar images. This follows conventions of a typical media product. Also it makes it look more professional.

It contains the logo that is on the front page, 'IRM' in the same bold eye catching font on the top of the page. This technique is used in my style model, NME magazine.

Bold titles are still used on this contents page. This includes the sub-heading of 'Half full of infinity' under the main image of the contents page. This is so it stands out as it is the main article in the issue.

The convention of the way it is set out is very accurate to my style model issue I have picked. It has all the contents of the issue on the right hand side. Although I did my own slant on the NME style as the guitar images on the left and the whole left column isn't on my style model.

Another convention that is often used in contents pages' is the issue image on the page. Mine is on the bottom left hand side. Along with an image of another article that isin the issue.
