This document proposes a music magazine aimed at ages 10-30, primarily females. The magazine will have a simple color cover featuring a double page spread and information on the cover artist. The content will entertain the target middle and upper class, "Belonger" audience without offensive language or material unsuitable for younger readers. While the logo may resemble an existing one, using a different font and color aims to sufficiently differentiate the magazine to avoid copyright issues.

Working Title:
Music Magazine.
Product’s Purpose:
The products purpose is to entertain the audience with information and photos that will interest my
audience.
Genre:
The genre of the magazine is entertainment.
My magazine is going to be Pop music genre and include all things to entertain my audience.
Content
My product is going to be a music magazine cover, it is going to have bits of colour on it but be
simple at the same time.
It is going to include a double page spread and a front cover for my magazine.
It is going to have information of the artist seen on the front cover so that is grabs people’s
attention by looking at it.
Audience:
My audience is going to have an age range of ages 10-30 as this is a wide spread of people but
they will all be interested in the magazine. The primary gender of my audience is female as I feel
like they are more involved in magazine and what celebrities are doing. The secondary gender is
males as I feel they would be interest with the main artist on the front cover as they can see what
is going to be included in magazine. The psychographics of the audience is Belonger, as it will
interest them by having it produced in the UK. The primary social status I have chosen is Middle
class as I think the information inside will appeal to them and they will be interested the most. My
secondary social status is upper class as I feel they will also enjoy the content throughout the
magazine and make it enjoyable for them.
Legal & Ethical Considerations:
Think about any offensive material you will include?
No offensive material will be included on the magazine as it would not be suitable for the younger
audience.
Will you restrict younger people using/accessing it?
No my age range starts at the age of 10 so it will not restrict younger ages.
Will it offend any social groups/religions/ethnicities?
The content used throughout my product will not offend any social groups and will be suitable and
enjoyable for everyone.
How will you ensure you do not offend anyone?
No offensive language will be used with the content and the age range starts with a young age so I
will make sure that it is suitable for them.
Are you using characters/names/logos of existing products/IPs?
I am going to use the same logo as another product but that is the only that I will be using from an
existing product.
Will you product be sufficiently different from existing products to not get sued for
copyright infringement?
I will use a different font from the existing product so that they are not the same and I will use a
different colour for the logo so that they look different from existing ones to stop the risk of
copyright.
