The document discusses potential names and designs for a pop music magazine targeted at teenage girls. It considers magazine names like "Pop Forever", "Pop Fever", and "Top Chart" and describes how each name would convey the magazine's focus on pop music. Font styles and color schemes are described to make the titles eye-catching using colors like pink and purple that would appeal to the target audience.

1. Magazine Names
Pop Forever
I chose this because the title instantly tells the
reader what the magazine is going to be about.
The verbal code ‘pop’ helps the reader to
understand that this magazine will contain pop
music. The verbal code ‘forever’ encourages
girls to buy the magazine to keep the pop genre
popular in the music industry. I would like to
make sure that the text for this name is in
capitals and in bold, this is because it is eye-
catching and stands out. I would put this text in
black with the ‘o’ of ‘forever’ in a pink heart,
this is because it includes the main colour of the
magazine in the title whilst eye-catching. This
font style connotes the fun genre about ‘pop
magazines’ the curvy writing connotes that it
is easy and not harsh.
Pop Fever
I chose this name because it encourages the reader to
buy the magazine. The verbal code ‘pop’ helps the
reader to understand that this magazine will contain
pop music. The verbal code ‘fever’ is telling the reader
that they love pop (are addicted to it) therefore they
have a ‘fever’. I would like to make sure that the text
for this name is in capitals and in bold, this is because it
is eye-catching and stands out. I would make sure that
the text is in a pink, this is because it stands out and it
includes the colour scheme of the magazine. This font
style connotes the fun genre about ‘pop magazines’ the
curvy writing connotes that it is easy and not harsh.
Top chart
I chose this magazine name because it symbolises the pop genre. This is because pop at the
moment is the most popular genre of music in the music industry. Therefore they have ‘pop
charts’, the verbal code ‘chart’ helps the audience understand what the magazine will be about as
the ‘pop chart’ exists. I would like to make sure that the text for this name is in capitals and in bold,
this is because it is eye-catching and stands out. I will make sure that this text is in a purple, this is
because it includes the colour scheme of the magazine. I will also incorporate a music symbol
behind the name, this is because it instantly tells the audience what the magazine will include. This

Pop
I chose this magazine name because it is very simple yet
effective. The one word instantly tells the reader the genre of
the magazine and what type of articles it will include. I would
like to make sure that the text for this name is in capitals and
in bold, this is because it is eye-catching and stands out. I will
make the text a black colour with a pink heart for the ‘o’ this is
because it will attract my target audience as they are girls
who enjoy pinks and purples. This font style connotes the fun
genre about ‘pop magazines’ the curvy writing connotes that it
is easy and not harsh.
Music Made Mad
I chose this name for a magazine because it
incorporates alliteration which is attractive and is
unique because not many teen magazines have
alliteration. I feel that this name is different yet eye-
catching. I would like to make sure that the text for
this name is in capitals and in bold, this is because it
is eye-catching and stands out. I would like to put
this text in pink, this is because it is very attractive
and is normally my target audiences favorite colour.

magazines’ the curvy writing connotes that it is easy
and not harsh.
Popular Pop
I chose this magazine name because it is not something which people would expect to
see on the magazine because the verbal code is ‘pop’ twice which is funny and young
teens will love this idea. I would like to make sure that the text for this name is in
capitals and in bold, this is because it is eye-catching and stands out. For this name I
would like to have it black with the names ‘pop’ as a bright pink because this make it
eye-catching and instantly tells the audience what the genre of the magazine is about.

2. Pop Forever
I have chosen to use the name ‘pop forever’ for my magazine. This is because I feel that
it is attractive and instantly tells the reader the genre of the magazine. Pop Forever
connotes that pop music is a popular genre for teens and young adults. The biggest
genre of music is pop, therefore including this in the name will attract people to the
magazine because they like that type of genre.

3. Magazine Content
• Cover story about the latest X-Factor news, this is because this show is
very popular with my target audience for my magazine, and the judge
Cheryl is the most popular judge on the panel who is loved my most young
teens.
• Cover story about new albums, I will include this because the artist is
popular with the target audience and will be interested in the new
song/albums.
• Cover story about One Direction, this is because this group is one of the
most popular groups in the world with young teens, who are my target
audience.
• Cover story about high street buys, this is because my target audience are
young teens who are very much interested in fashion and what celebrities
wear so they can be able to wear the same clothing as them.
• Posters of celebrities, this is because teens want to be able to have the
ability to tear out a poster which they can stick on their wall which will be
of their idol.

4. Puff Promotions
• When creating my music magazine I plan to
add in small puff promotions for my target
audience. This is because puff promotions are
attractive to readers as they want the change
to ‘win’ something for ‘free’. For my target
audience the puff promotions will be:
• Tickets to concerts
• Meet the band
• Win technology

5. Colour Scheme
• When creating my music magazine my target
audience are girls aged 11-15. Girls this age
normally enjoy bright bold colours which are very
eye-catching. Therefore I will be adding in:
• Pinks and Purples which connotes that the
magazine is for girls as this is normally their
favourite colour.
• Adding these colours gives the magazine a girly
identity as these colours are normally associated
with girls
