1. GENRE OF MAGAZINE
The most commonly published genre of
music presented in my magazine will be
general pop music however Indie,
Alternative and R&B will also feature in
parts of my magazine. This allows the
magazine to appeal to a much wider
audience. These genres of music are very
popular with the age group of my target
market. The artists from these genres are
also very recognisable therefore them
featuring on my magazine will attract my
audiences attention. These genres are
memorable youth; people enjoy the music
that they grow up with. This is why this age
group will relate to these genres so well.
However these genres are popular in music
magazine production therefore there will be
a very competitive market furthermore this
could help me to create a very successful
magazine as researching into other music
magazines who publish these genres of
music allows me to see what artists and
features appeal most to people of this age.
Being less specific about what genres of
music is featured in the magazine allows it
to appeal to a large target market of both a
feminine audience and masculine. Choosing
a few genres to publish in my magazine
allows me to have a variation of what
articles feature in my magazine therefore is
more to talk about throughout my
magazine. Rather than talking about one
specific genre or artist throughout; this may
discourage some of my audience to read
further.
