2. Task I am doing a music magazine. I’m going to do a cover, a contents page and a double page spread. I am doing it on my own!
3. Genre My magazine is going to be about rock and alternative music. The conventions that I am stealing are mostly from Kerrang and Elle magazine like: Lots of layering Lots of images Same broken type font Bold colours Full view of main image My inspiration is from Kerrang and Elle because I want to include some other topics like fashion and gossip included in my sub heading as well as good music.
4. Audience My magazine is aimed at a teenage audience from age 14-18. It will be for girls and boys but the colours will be more bright so it will attract people more.
5. Magazine My front cover will include a main picture, there will be different fonts and I will have one main colour e.g. Pink to stand out from the black, white and grey colours. The contents page will be busy and have lots of images spread out. I will use the same colours as the front cover, to keep a theme. The double page spread will be an article about a band and their career. It will be formatted in columns and there will be layers used for pictures. The picture will be quite big to interest the reader.
6. Music The music will be mainly rock but there will also be alternative music which is softer than rock. This is the music I listen to and it will appeal a wider audience because it’s not focused on one genre.
