2. Rock On! will be a Rock based magazine specifically focused
around North London. The Magazine will be released both an
Online version and Print Copy issuing new releases every
month.
Providing entertainment and Content for the ages of 16-20. The
magazine aims to provide Maximum entertainment and
satisfaction from the genre of Rock and all the music that comes
with it from within North London.
Rock On!
3. THE GENRE
The genre I have chosen for my
magazine is Rock Music. I have
chosen this genre as it is a well
established genre used in North
London in areas such as Camden.
Areas like this hold music venues
such as KOKO which are based
around Rock Music.
4. THE AIM
. To become one of the most successful Rock Magazines
based in North London. To inform readers about
upcoming Rock Artists and music.
. I can do this by conducting research on the age
demographic of the magazine readers to help
understand what will appeal to the majority.
6. TARGET AUDIENCE
Primary: 16-20, male and female
Secondary: 20-30, male and female
Social Class rating: A-E
• Rock can be spread across all classes
7. FONTS, TEXTS, TYPEFACES AND TITLES
Arial
The first font being used will be for my main headline title. This font is
called HolyFont and is a good representation of a rock genre due to
its roughness and unique scratchiness. Using this font will allow me
to connote to the genre of Rock.
The font being presented here is the American Captain font. This font
stands very well out and will be used for straplines and cover lines to
attract my audience/reader to the magazine.
The font Arial is going to be used for my DP spread interview as it is a
neat font and easy to read.
Rock On!

• The colour scheme for my magazine will be a
use of 4 main colours for my magazine front

slick edgy and serious background for the
magazine. This helps present the genre of
Rock through my magazine as it creates a
fitting scene for my magazine to be around
colour wise.
