My First AS Media Lesson







In our first lesson of AS Media 3 fellow students and myself got together and began to compare and analyse two very different magazines. By comparing the woman's designer fashion magazine 'Instyle' with the high street gossip magazine 'Best' we soon discovered loads of similarities and differences between the two different publications. By studying the magazines I began to learn a wide range of vocabulary and device meanings. It was a great way to start my AS Media Course!


As part of the lesson I also learnt the difference between 'conventions and codes'. From my understanding conventions and codes are practically the same thing. For example the 'Code' is the differences the magazine shares and 'Conventions' is the similarities they share.
