Use of Conventions

       My magazine uses and challenges the conventions of the genre it is about I many ways. In my magazine, I used a tactic that most of the magazines that I researched had. This is putting a subheading under the title that explains the purpose of your magazine. In addition, I also used a convention most fishing magazines use which is having a massive fish on the cover of the magazine. This is used to catch the audiences eye and make them want to pick up your magazine and read it even more. Also, this magazine represents a popular social group. This social group is fishermen that are trying to learn more about fishing. This is shown by the abundance of tips and tricks and also the pictures. The pictures are shown to show the audience who they are trying to catch once they get more experience with fishing.
