Generic conventions between the mastheads on my previous blog post.

This blog entry is to point out the generic conventions between the mastheads on my previous blog post. 

• All of these mastheads are in a bubble writing font. This kind of font is quite childlike suggesting that this genre of music is aimed towards the younger generation. 
• All of these mastheads feature similar colours of black and white. And these colours are either used to outline or the letters are filled.
• All of the mastheads appear quite futuristic and modern-this links with the genre of the magazine because house/dance music is more of a modern genre. 
• The letter of each masthead are close together-all joined up. 
• The masthead 'Core' is used to suggest that music is at the core and possibly the magazine core is the core to finding good music or hearing about the latest music. 
• The masthead 'Mixmag' is a good name for a house/dance magazine. A lot of house music features remixes/mixes so this links well with the genre. The audience of this genre will then be able to recognize its genre more easily.
• The masthead 'maxumi' looks very futuristic and bold. The name is very unique and attracts people this way. Because it is something different this almost represents house/dance/ music which is quite different and unique.
