 NEA Research Part 2 - Genre Research

 Introduction

For this lesson I will be researching further into the genre of my magazine. This will help me focus on what codes and conventions suit within my brief so my media product is engaging and effective in its purpose.

The genre of my media product is entertainment so I will be looking at 3 other media products within the same genre. 

 This is my link to my genre research. I researched US Weekly, Entertainment Weekly and People Magazine.

 Conclusion 

 Overall, while researching the magazines they all carried the same conventions and how this makes them successful entertainment genres. For example, they always use a variety of colour in their front covers and as their main target audience is young females this is eye-catching to them to engage with. This will help me in my development further as it will give me a structure and outlook on what is expected in my entertainment magazine.
