Analysis of magazine content page of a particular genre, pop
Through analysing I have discovered the common codes and conventions of the double page spread of a pop music magazine that are vital to create an effective, superior, bright and vibrant but eye catching magazine. The pop music genre has a clear targeted audience for the magazine which is fun, bubbly and energetic people and those interested in pop music hopefully will engage in the magazine. The age group is clearly 8-15 years as most magazines cover quiz pages and prizes to win which would engage the reader of this age. With this research, I feel as though I am capable of creating a front cover for a pop music magazine as the codes and conventions are clear and I am fimiliar with them.

Analysis of magazine front covers on a particular genre, pop
Previously I have studied and analysed the form of magazine front covers, contents pages and double page sprerad articles. Through this research I have gained a clearer knowledge on how my magazine should be layed out and what vital codes and conventins are needed to create my music magazine. Following this research I have now began to research my chosen genre within magazines. My chosen genre is pop music therefore I have researched magazines that follow this genre and magazine that follows this are, Smash Hits, We Love Pop and Top of the Pops these are three well known magazine with the pop genre. I have annotated three front covers, double page spread and a contents page of pop music magazines to gain knowledge of this particular genre.

Analysis of the codes and conventions on the form of a double-page spread article
Through analysing three double page spreads. I have discovered and researched the common codes and conventions of articles and the spread itself. I have completed this research so that I can use these codes and conventions elements to the magazine I am creating. After completing this task, I feel as if now I fully understand the codes and conventions of a double page spread of a magazine and will be able to apply them to magazine that I will be producing.
Analysis of the codes and conventions on the form of a contents page magazine
Through analysing three Contents page, I have discovered and research the common codes and conventions of a contents page of a magazine. I have done this research so that I can use these codes and conventions elements in the product I will be designing. Although I had already done research about the codes and conventions of a contents page I decided that it will be a good idea to re-do this task again in more detail by doing this, this widened my knowledge. I used other ideas from my premliminary task to complete the following task of the contents paged. After completing this task I feel as if I fully understand the codes and conventions of a contents page of a magazine and will be able to apply them to magazine that I will be producing.

Analysis of the codes and conventions on the form of a front page magazine
I have studied and analysed three front covers of magazines. Through the analysing of the magazine front covers I have discovered the common codes and conventions of a front cover of a magazine which would give me an understanding of what I would include in the creating of my music magazine. In my preliminary task I also studied and analysed front covers of school magazines, this helped me during this task of analysing codes and conventions, it was now clear to me why I did the preliminary task as it gave me a wide knowledge of codes and conventions. Now during this task I used one of the following front covers that I analysed on my preliminary task however in this task I used more of my knowledge that I have gained. Doing these two tasks have helped me compare and contrast the codes and conventions depending on the theme of each magazine and it has now left me with a wide knowledge and understanding of codes and conventions on the form of a front page magazine.
