Proposal for music magazine

Target audience

                The target audience for my music magazine will be teenagers and young adults from ages of 15 -21. It will also be people who are interested in new alternative rock music and people who will be looking to read about new bands and artists of the same age range. So it will be a magazine aimed at the same people that it will feature. 

Typical Content

                The typical content that would be in my magazine would be articles about new up and coming bands and artists of the same age of my target audience. Also it could have articles with a question and answer type structure, the questions from fans and the answers from the artists. Also there could be articles that follow the bands and artists through their tours to give people who couldn’t go and see them a chance to read about it. It would also include adverts to do with music so adverts for concerts, headphones, mp3 players etc.

Cover Lines

                These are all going to be about the articles inside. So they could give slight information about new artists to draw people in to the magazine.

Fonts

The Sound

I am going to use this font, which is Impact for the masthead of my magazine because it stands out and is clear enough to be able to be read from a distance so it will grab people’s attention.

I want to use this font for my main text and cover lines because it is clear and simple to read. This font is Tahoma.

Times Published

My magazine would be published every two weeks. It will also have special editions for things like Christmas, New Years and Valentine’s Day. So this means that these editions would have different themes and styles for these dates.

Kind of images

                There could be images of the bands and artists that are featured in that article. Also if it is an article not about specific artist there could  be images that are related to that article, so if there was an article about a new iPod or mp3 player there could be images of that iPod or mp3 player.

Size

                The size of this magazine would be A4 size so it will be typical magazine size.
