Key genres reviewed include R&B, hip hop, pop, classical, rock, indie, and instrumental magazines. Each genre's conventions and target audiences are examined based on analyzing magazine covers. In the end, the author decides to do more research on niche music magazine genres like instrumental, as they seem to have more loyal audiences than general pop/rock magazines.
Magazine music
Rap music was chosen as the genre for the magazine because it is very popular and also the designer's favorite type of music. The magazine cover features a medium close-up of the main artist wearing clothing stereotypical of rappers like baseball caps and gold chains. Basic colors like black, white, grey and red are used for the font to make it stand out against the usually dark background and allow the main image to attract attention.
Moodboard- Market research into existing genres available
The document describes a mood board made up of different existing music genre magazines that provides ideas for the layout, color, images, context, celebrities, props, and clothing for a new music magazine. Most magazines feature a main image of the celebrity being profiled and use colors associated with the genre of music. For example, rock magazines tend to use darker colors while R&B and pop magazines use warmer, more colorful schemes that reflect the more uplifting nature of those genres. Important text on the covers, like headlines and names, typically appear in larger fonts. Images on the covers mainly consist of front-on close-up or medium close-up shots of celebrities surrounded by additional text.
Nme analysis cover (2)
The masthead uses a bold sans serif font and yellow color that stands out against the blue background to grab readers' attention. The main image takes up most of the center space, drawing eyes to a male model looking into the camera to address readers and promote a story about him. Coverlines are in the primary optical and strong fallow areas that readers' eyes are naturally drawn to in order to entice them to learn more by buying the magazine.
Front covers music mag
Front covers of music magazines use consistent color schemes, logos, and fonts to create recognizable brands. Common techniques seen across magazines like Mojo, Q, NME, and Kerrang include:
- Limiting the color palette to 2-4 colors
- Using 1-3 fonts consistently
- Featuring a large central image of an artist with smaller supporting images
- Angled text banners to draw readers to stories about featured artists and albums
- Headers and footers that hook across or behind cover images
Magazine covers target specific audiences by featuring iconic artists and styles that appeal to the target demographic for each publication.

Planning Slide
The document discusses font and color scheme choices for a new rock music magazine called RMS. For the font, a clean-edged block font was chosen that is not associated with any particular rock subgenre. A red and dark blue color scheme was selected instead of light blue and green, as red is a music magazine convention and blue helps highlight questions. The front cover will feature a single male in bright and dark contrasts to show that first impressions can be misleading. Various solo artists will appear in the contents page since it is a solo artist highlight month. A double page spread will include one intimidating and one comedic photo.
Question 1
The document discusses the conventions used in the design of a mock rock music magazine cover and contents. It summarizes how elements like the masthead, cover lines, images, layout, typography, and language employ conventions of existing rock magazines like Kerrang and NME while also breaking some conventions. For example, the placement and styling of the masthead, use of sans-serif fonts, rule of thirds layout, and informal language are all conventional, though some images introduce unconventional backgrounds and the banner includes a cover line rather than artist names. Overall, the magazine draws from real conventions but also challenges some expectations.

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

AS Media Studies - Musical genres research
- 1. Media Research into other musical genres Joe Griffiths
- 2. Rock - Front Covers Conventions • All have a strong masthead. Unlike other music magazines the titles are mainly two words. Text is a mix of serif and sans serif. • Rock Sound also changes the colour of its masthead frequently. • Photography is dominant in all magazines. • All have very busy designs. • Classic Rock which has a older target audience and uses a strong but subtle gold highlight colour to anchor the headline. • Vile and Rock Sound use multiple colours. • The colours are generally more muted perhaps reflecting the more male dominant audience.
- 3. Pop - Front Covers Conventions • All have a strong masthead again with multiple words but all sans serif. We love pop has created a logo from their masthead designed to imply a speech or thought bubble. • Photography is dominant throughout and all use mid shots focusing on single artists rather than bands. • The designs are all very busy. The lead headlines are dominant with top of the pops using a graphic pop to anchor their lead headline. • The colours chosen are bright and vibrant. They are also more fashionable colours perhaps reflecting the teenage girl target audience.
- 4. Heavy Metal - Front Covers Conventions • All have a strong masthead with sans serif strong font used. • All have a single powerful name that identifies the musical genre they represent. • The design style of all these magazine relates to this aggressive and in your face genre of metal music. • The lead or anchor articles are clear in all front cover and are given dominance above other articles and features. • The photography is dominant and atmospheric using the rule of thirds concept.
