Researching genre
Forms and Conventions:
• A lot of focus placed upon the subject of the
cover, e.g. the artist is the only thing the
audience should be focused upon
• Mid shot of subject
• Emphasis on colour more than that of an indie
magazine.
• Chosen artist must be appealing to the
audience of this genre
• Masthead will stand out against background,
and should relate to the chosen artist on the
cover.
• Subject has a neutral/positive expression
• Main house style is not as strictly adhered to.
Indie Magazines
Forms and Conventions:
• Clear house style
• Colour scheme
• Varied use of fonts and sizes to emphasize
things of greater importance
• Headline that relates to the artist
• Convention of mid-shot is not as strictly
adhered to in this genre
• Banner across the top of the magazine to
show contents
• Main subject with quirky, less conventional
expression.
Rock Magazines
Forms and Conventions:
• Banner displays contents of the magazine
• Main image displays subject in an
edgy/anarchist way to appeal to audience
• Dark colour scheme used, connotes death,
violence, anarchy
• Pull quotes are used to engage the reader.
• Cluttered use of multiple images to appeal to
the widest audience possible.
• Main subject in dark clothing with miserable
expression
Chosen Genre
For my own coursework piece, I have decided to pick Pop/Indie as my
chosen genre as I believe people who may want to be the subject of the
cover who I have access to give off this aesthetic and will compliment my
cover nicely, for example female friends will work nicely for a Pop
magazine as the industry is female biased.
In addition to this, Pop/Indie magazines usually place most emphasis on
the subject of the magazine, therefore intricate props and locations will
not be necessary for the cover, and a plain background would suffice.
