Using google to surf the internet when wanting to look back at existing media codes and conventions helped me to pick out certain elements that I wanted to encorporate into my own magazine.

In what ways will your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
By surfing on the internet the existing magazines and posters that were made by real media productions, I managed to encorporate codes and conventions such as the use of colours, style, fonts, picture compositions, use of lanaguage and use of editing to come up with a final result similar to the media products I liked and focused on the most.
What have you learned from your audience feedback?
After showing my audience my up and coming ancillary task 2 they insisted I keep the colours consistent through out my poster, they also liked the way the title was centred in the middle of the poster with the yellow colour in the centre which faded into a gradual red presenting the centred title bright. They thought this was good as it grabbed the audience and drew them in to the poster even more. However they thought I should be careful with the colours I used on the text positioned around the poster as it couldn't clash nor blend in with the background colours so I chose oppositional colours such as black and dark colours to make the font more suitable, able to read and easier on the eye as if the poster contained too many primary colours it could look too full of detail and unprofessional.
How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?
The house style, fonts colours, mise-en-scene was all replicated in both ancillary task 1 and the main product. The more consistent I made the house style / codes and conventions, the more professional the final outcomes will look when put together and compared with each other.
