Initial introductory task 1. 
Questions about music magazines.
What is a music magazine? 
• A music magazine is a combination of images 
and words. Music magazine cover a wide 
variety of genres such as rock, pop, R&B etc. 
They also bring a variety of target audiences 
due to its genre.
What content 
(text/copy/writing/articles/stories) would 
you expect to find in a music magazine? 
• In a music magazine I would expect to find 
articles/interviews with musicians, singers etc 
including questions and answers under the 
topic of music. I would expect to see relevant 
pictures of familiar music artists in their 
musical environment further showing the 
reader what they do/what genre their music 
would fit into.
What images would you expect to 
find in a music magazine? 
• I would expect to find images that correspond 
with the information given about the music 
and the artists included within the magazine. I 
would expect them to have a musical theme 
such as instruments involved and maybe 
musical notes around the images.
Identify general characteristics/ features 
that you would expect to find in all 
music magazines. 
• I would expect to see the typical conventions 
of magazines such as masthead, cover lines, 
images etc. Usually in music magazines and 
magazines in general, you would expect to see 
a variety of text and images to make the 
magazine both interesting and informative to 
the target audience.
Initial introductory task 1. 
Questions about music magazines 
front cover.
Identify the features/characteristics they all 
have and state why they are important. 
• The general codes and conventions of a magazine cover will 
include a masthead. The masthead is always the focus of the 
cover (in bold and large text). It is always relevant to the house 
style of the magazine making the reader/ target audience feel 
more at home whilst reading the magazine. 
• The magazine will also include a range of cover lines. There is 
always at least 4 main cover lines shown on the cover to give 
the audience an insight into the magazine and what it entails. 
• There is always a main image on the cover which is relevant to 
the topic/ genre of the magazine, the main image should attract 
the readers attention due to its role of the magazine cover. 
• The magazine will have a house style. This is where the colours/ 
font type/ font size and general topic will be consistent in every 
issue of the magazine. This will make the target audience feel 
comfortable with the magazine and they will continuously 
purchase the magazine knowing what to expect each time.
Identifying a genre. 
• This magazine (as the masthead shows) 
is clearly a pop magazine aimed at 
people who enjoy pop music. 
• There is an image of Leona Lewis on 
the cover who is a famous singer that is 
well known for her music amongst 
most music lovers. 
• The main image if of the main 
characters from High School Musical, a 
film trilogy about young teens at 
school. This appealed to many people 
into pop music as that was the main 
musical focus of the 3 films. 
• One of the cover lines says: ‘Plus! All 
these stars. This is referring to music 
stars further going with the genre of a 
pop magazine.
Identifying a target audience. 
• Due to the pink colour theme, it 
is clear that the main target 
audience is young girls due to 
their stereotypical love for the 
colour pink. 
• There is also a running theme of 
teenage iconic celebrities 
included in the range of images 
on the cover. This will attract 
the attention of young people 
as they will want to read about 
the celebrities included within 
the cover.
