Working Title: SideQuest
What is it called? This can change if you think of something better later
Product’s Purpose: Inform/educate/entertain
Different articles with different purposes
What is the product’s purpose (entertain/educate etc.) and how will you achieve this?
Genre: A gaming magazine: the magazine will cover every genre of games
What sort of product is it
Content: Reviews & ratings, Lists (bests&worsts), News, updates & release dates, etc.
What is your product about? Discuss what you would put in it (be specific). Does it have a story? If
so, discuss it here
Audience: Teenagers. Any gender, though may attract more male than female readers
The magazine will cost cheaper than others making it more available for people with less
money therefore any social status and of course they have to enjoy gaming.
Who is your audience? Be very detailed; age, gender, social status, psychographic etc
Why would your project appeal to this person?
Legal & Ethical Considerations: No offensive swears in the magazines. Be certain to not
make any mistakes when it comes to writing. Double-check all writing. Make sure to not
make any somewhat offensive or racist jokes if making any. Also don’t be biased in reviews
(don’t have your opinion bought by sponsors) use companies and games logos
respectively.
An age warning will be displayed at the top of the page when discussing a game of that age
rating to warn children and ensure parents
The only thing I can imagine people being annoyed by is subjective comments within
articles.
I will try make my product as different and unique is at can be from already existing
products but at the same time trying to make suitable for readers who enjoy those
magazinesas well.
Think about any offensive material you will include?
Will you restrict younger people using/accessing it?
Will it offend any social groups/religions/ethnicities?
How will you ensure you do not offend anyone?
Are you using characters/names/logos of existing products/IPs?
Will you product be sufficiently different from existing products to not get sued for copyright
infringement?
