Publication Plan

EPICPositioning Statement: For music that rocks!Frequency of Publication: WeeklyPrice: £1.80Distribution: Newsagent and supermarkets, music shops, rockmusic merchandising shops (e.g. PULP) and gig venues.Rationale: The approach of the magazine is from the fans’ perspective. We offerarticles and interviews that fans want to know about. We also offer fans the chanceto communicate with big names in the rock world to find out exactly what theywant to know for themselves. We want fans to have as much insight into life as amusician as possible.

Style: The magazine will be informal and will use humour. Itwill also offer strong opinions but not be overly serious. The magazine is for all rock music fans between the ages of 14and 25, therefore fairly simple vocabulary and syntax will beused. It will follow a similar style of writing and presentation to magazines of a similar style, and will also include slang. Images will be the dominant feature of layouts.
