Codes and Conventions of a Professional Magazine Product

  • Masthead shows the title of the magazine and signifies the genre of the magazine.Usually from left to right and fits the whole width of the page, it creates a brand and therefore will be recognizable. 
  • Central Images giving direct address to catch the target audiences attention and interacts with the audience.
  • Buzzwords,puffs and graphic features grab the readers attention.
  • Always have a Barcode,price,date and website.
  • Cover lines tells the target audience what is inside the magazine.
  • Colour scheme should involve 3-4 colours.
