Interview

Alec prefers that a music magazine focus primarily on music rather than gossip. He likes pop-rock music and wants the front cover to feature both the main artist and others included in the magazine. Alec thinks main articles should be 3-4 pages and prefers bold, bright colors over dark, strong ones. While he likes some variety, he does not want too many changing fonts, text colors, and sizes to make the magazine an eyesore. Alec is open to buying a magazine aimed at either his own or the opposite gender and would purchase one aimed at both genders.

Audience profiles

This document profiles three potential audiences - Bradley Hutchinson, Megan Thompson, and Alec Bell - for a rock music magazine. Bradley is not a suitable target audience as he only likes pop/dance music. Megan would be a good fit as she enjoys rock and sub-genres of rock, dresses alternatively, and has tattoos and piercings. Alec is presented as the best audience profile because his music tastes match the magazine's genre of rock, he dresses in a darker, alternative style, and has facial piercings popular within rock music culture.

Location search

The document considers three potential locations for a photoshoot for a grunge/rock magazine: Sunderland University Media Centre, Ryhope Beach, and Sunderland College Bede Campus courtyard. The University Media Centre was ruled out due to its artificial lighting and need to book time slots. Ryhope Beach was unsuitable due to inconvenient tide times and difficulty for the model to travel there. The document concludes that Sunderland College Bede Campus courtyard would be the best location, as it provides convenient access for the photographer and model who both attend the college, natural lighting from the surrounding buildings, and flexibility to shoot whenever needed without appointments.

Deconstructions

Megan Shaw proposes creating a music magazine focused on rock music genres such as metal and alternative rock. The magazine will target younger audiences between ages 15-25 of both genders. Key conventions that will be used include a large masthead, band/singer images, and alternative color schemes. Potential difficulties include the magazine not looking professional, failing to attract the target audience, boring articles, poor fit with the chosen genres, or underdeveloped articles.

Bold text, relaxed language, and images of artists were used throughout to appeal to the target audience and portray the mood of the genre.
