Classical music magazines have a relaxed tone but formal layout and target an older demographic.

Pop magazines use bright feminine colors, gossip stories, and private male pictures to specifically appeal to a female audience.

The document discusses representations of different social groups in underground music culture magazines. It addresses stereotypes around drugs, class, race, age and gender. For class, it focuses on an audience of B-E income brackets. For race, it acknowledges the genre's multicultural roots but faced modelling limitations.

Pictures of real people
The document discusses using models of various ethnicities in a hip hop magazine to appeal to a diverse readership and break conventions. A mixed female model is proposed to show that non-black people also listen to hip hop. Her figure also resembles popular female artists. A male model of an ethnicity common among hip hop artists is suggested for the cover to appeal to both male and female readers of different backgrounds.

task6
The document discusses design choices for the cover and interior pages of a magazine focused on rock music.

Safety measures are discussed such as ensuring careful movement and stability of equipment.
Question 7 what i've learnt from preliminary task
The document discusses what the author learned from creating two magazines - a college magazine and a music magazine. Some of the key lessons learned include:
1) Creating a plan first leads to a more professional-looking final product compared to thinking of ideas on the spot.
2) Removing backgrounds from images and experimenting with fonts, drop shadows, and effects helps elements like mastheads stand out.
3) Different target audiences must be considered for different magazine topics.
4) Filling all page space, adding borders around images, and including branding elements like mastheads on all pages improves appearance and readability.
5) Writing articles before layout and using design elements like drop caps and pull quotes enhances

- 2. This will be on my front cover because the lipstick and clothes that both Alice and Courtney are wearing is quite dark, which fits into the stereotype associated with rock, but also fits in with one of my colours in my colour scheme of red. Also, the direct address and the fact that Courtney is pointing to the audience creates an intimate relationship between the target audience and my magazine, and the fact that they are both female attracts my mainly female target audience by making the models more relatable and therefore appealing to them, and conveying that this magazine is targeted at females specifically. The hand gestures they are doing creates the energy needed for rock, as this genre is generally presented as being loud and energetic.
- 3. The sinister expressions on this band’s faces creates the intimidating feeling that is stereotypically present in rock magazines, along with their black outfits and Molly’s black lipstick, therefore presenting my magazine to be of the expressively heavy rock music genre. Again, the females attract and engage my target audiences attention and the direct address further draws the audience’s attention in to my magazine.
- 4. This will be on my contents page due to the fact that the indirect address to the target audience connotes the story of Mason looking away and thinking of his solo career for the article. The metallic panelling in the background creates an urban vibe, where rock is stereotypically based around, therefore by using this on my contents page, I am reinforcing the codes and conventions of a rock magazine. Also, I needed to include a picture of a young male in order to keep the target audience’s attention, as they will find images of males appealing to look at, being mainly young females aged 16-19.
- 5. This image represents the loudness of rock, and denotes props such as a guitar and a microphone, which have connotations of rock music, therefore, it is clear to the target audience that this is the genre of my music magazine. This is a suitable main double page spread image as the arm of the guitar could lead onto the opposite page, where it could allow the image and text in the article to be integrated, which adds interest and makes the page more dynamic and aesthetically appealing. The blue background will be manipulated to denote a performance studio or a stage, which conveys to the target audience a familiar setting, and so this background will convey the mood and atmosphere of rock music in a conventional sense.
