The document proposes a magazine called "R0ck Rev0lution" focused on rock music and aimed at a target audience of 17-year-old males interested in rock music. It will feature photos of rock bands performing on the front page and contents page, and a double page spread with a large photo of a band together holding instruments. The color scheme will be primarily black and white with accents of red to make elements stand out.

1. Task 9: Formal Proposal
The title of my magazine will be R0ck Rev0lution (Rock Revolution)
I chose Rock music and my genre as it is popular with members of my target
audience. I play, record and read about rock music so I know a lot about the
genre and the audience that would buy a magazine based on it.

Initial Ideas: Front Page
Main photo will be of a member of the main band (Guitarist/Singer) playing guitar/singing
Colours: Minimal, black and white with dashes of red.
Initial Ideas: Contents Page
I will use a minimum of 3 photos. One photo will be over the main band performing or
recording in the recording studio. One photo could be of a male playing on a MIDI Keyboard
in the music rooms. A third and final photo could be of a music poster.
Colours: mostly black and white, but with more bright red to make it stand out.
Initial Ideas: Double Page Spread
I will use one big photo of the main band together (with props such as guitars, drumsticks
etc.)
I will still use the main black, white colour and bright red to create a contrast and make it
stand out.
