Anchorage Text + Generic Conventions


The name "Aggie Pop" is the name of the artist of the main image. I chose this name from the already existing singer, "Iggy Pop". I got the name "Aggoe" from my sister Agatha, who also posed in photographs previously. By the name Aggie, you can tell it is a woman, but still attract men because the audience will think of Iggy Pop, 
and be attracted to it. The fa sof Iggy Pop are mostly men, therefore, this name will also attract the similar age group who are my target 
audience. The font is like it is an autograph by the artist, and looks messy and neat at the same time. Right now the anchorage text is covering the guitar, which I don't like very much because you can't see the colour of it, which is one of the main important things of this main image. Later on, I will change the position of the anchorage text.

I then, added the bar-code + date + issue no. + website details + price on the right hand corner of the page. I used smaller fonts because I don't want it to stand out very much and distract the audience from the main images and anchorage text etc. and I used the same font and colour as the house style for the website and a simple, times new roman font in black for the date and issue number etc. This is because I thought the website details are much more important for us because we want more fans of the magazine, and want them to be with us in many social media.  I also used the rule of three, because ou can see that the generic conventions only cover the third block of the page. By doing this, it makes it look neater.
