Magazine Analysis

In my Media lesson, we had to analyse a magazine cover. We had to chose the magazine covers ourselves but we were not allowed to use a music magazine as that is the theme for the actual exam in 2013.
When analysing, we have to look out for 12 key conventions.
The 12 key conventions:

1. Title of publication
2. Slogan
3. Central image
4. Flash (Text on top of central image)
5. Free offer
6. Colour scheme
7. Name/Game checks (cultural territory)
8. Language
9. Competitions
10. Direct address and Asking questions
11. Barcode, Date and Price
12. The 'real' target audience

The magazine I was analysing had no 'Free offer' or 'Competitions'
