  • Educational magazine genre codes and convention: What are they and how are they used?
The "Horrible Histories" magazine is based on history and educational facts


  • Layout codes and conventions 
The layout of the magazine is A4 size and is a double page spread. The front cover shows the masthead is placed at the top of the magazine and it is write in black bold writing so this means it stands out more than the rest of the information on the cover. There are animated pictures places all over the front cover and each image has information written beside it which tells us about the image.


  • How a house style (characteristics used to different brand from others) is established by the use of font/colour/images/layout





  • Production values
The production value of the magazine "Horrible Histories" is in-between high and low values. The front cover of the magazine is matte and the inside paper is also matte which is slightly thicker than normal A4.
