My magazine challenges social conventions because it represents counterculture. My magazine is informational and neutral. While I was creating my magazine cover, my vision was a neutral magazine. This is an idea reflected in the titles; the titles are neutral and not tabloid-like. Most magazines contain gossipy/ sensational headings and are multicolored. My cover challenges these conventions because the tittles are objective, and the overall color scheme is monochromatic. My use of monochromatic colors is supposed to give a serious nature and give off the feeling of power. This notion is achieved by using the color red. Red is symbolic of power and energy.
My magazine is representative of social groups. Most of my titles mention minorities and use neutral language. So, the audience can feel included. I chose to mention minorities because it has been shown that people like to be represented in the media, they are consuming. My magazine focuses on bigger issues that my audience can relate to li My magazine challenges social conventions because it represents counterculture. My magazine is informational and neutral.

My product engages with the audience in simple ways. My magazine engages people by using typography, color scheme, and bolded letters. The typography is large and easy to read. I did this because I wanted the words/ titles to be seen from a distance. While creating these headers I thought to myself how this magazine would look in a grocery store. This guided how I placed my titles and chose my colors. The color scheme of black and white is easy on the eyes. This color scheme is quite easy to read and prevents the viewers from squinting and losing interest. The bolded nature of the letters was intended to catch people's attention because it differentiates what parts of my magazine are important. If my product was a real media text, it would be distributed online because I would want to increase my accessibility. Creating online copies allows people to read the topics anywhere and anytime they want, this can increase my audience pool. If I were to choose physical copies, I would distribute my text in malls or shopping centers simply because people shopping in these areas tend to care about fashion more than the average person. It is important that I market this hypothetical magazine to my target audience, people who are young adults. The real-life print is important because older audiences favor physical copies over digital copies therefore it's important that I focus on a digital and physical release.
