Working Title: gaming times
What is it called? This can change if you think of something better later
Product’s Purpose: to inform people of new and upcoming games
What is the product’s purpose (entertain/educate etc.) and how will you achieve this?
Genre: action informative
What sort of product is it
Content new games, new consoles and overall anything to do with the gaming community
The product is about telling people what you should buy in gaming terms and what not to
buy. My product does not have a story because it is an informative magazine but I could
add a story from a game and tell it as they go through it.
What is your product about? Discuss what you would put in it (be specific). Does it have a story? If
so, discuss it here
Audience: ages from 12-18 mainly targeted at both genders. There social status doesn’t
matter because anybody who plays games will like this magazine. My project would appeal
mainly to children
Who is your audience? Be very detailed; age, gender, social status, psychographic etc
Why would your project appeal to this person?
Legal & Ethical Considerations: no offensive material, I will not restrict violence in this
magazine because older people will not enjoy it but if there parents don’t like then they
don’t buy it. The magazine might offend certain groups if the game offends them. I will try
and block out any really offensive material. I will be using character names and logos and
will edit them so I don’t get copyrighted.
Think about any offensive material you will include?
Will you restrict younger people using/accessing it?
Will it offend any social groups/religions/ethnicities?
How will you ensure you do not offend anyone?
Are you using characters/names/logos of existing products/IPs?
Will you product be sufficiently different from existing products to not get sued for copyright
infringement?
