Research 3

From collecting a series of music magazine and album covers of real existing media, I have developed a full understanding of the typical codes and conventions;


 FEATURES ON MAGAZINE FRONT COVERS
  • Strap lines
  • Mast head
  • Lures
  • Issue identification 
  • Distribution price
  • Lures
  • Bar codes
  • Magazine website 
FEATURES ON ALBUM COVERS
  • Typography - Artist's name
  • An image which fills the album cover
  • Spine
  • Consistent use of a specific house style 
  • Booklet, to inform audience of lyrics, and additional information from the album
