● Actor fact files
● Sample issue will promote NOW TV, on which the new film will be released
● It will also promote a new streaming service called Halo
● USP: there will be paper tokens attached to the back of each issue, and if five tokens are collected the
reader can register to get a FREE ticket to a local cinema of their choice using the codes on each token

5. Target audience
● White British young people of all genders aged 15-25, social grades BC1C2
● The reason I have chosen this primary target audience is because the majority of actors in
Hollywood and Britain tend to be white; however, my secondary target audience will be black
people because a number of the films featured in the magazine will have black actors and actors of
other ethnicities, and North London is very diverse so I want to represent as many races and
ethnicities as possible

13. Mood board

14. Competitors - Empire
● It covers film news and previews
● Reviews both mainstream and independent
films
● My magazine will be better as it appeals to
those who want to learn about the actors in
films rather than just the film itself

15. Competitors - Starburst
● Contains movie news and reviews
● My magazine will be better as it doesn’t
focus as much on film reviews as the
actors in the films, and tells readers about
their experiences

16. Competitors - MovieMaker
● Focuses on the art and business of making
movies
● My magazine will be better as it will feature a
new film every month and the main actors will
be interviewed about their experiences
