The document discusses images selected for inclusion in an indie music magazine to attract audiences. It includes photos of popular musicians like Coldplay, Arctic Monkeys, and Oasis to draw readers interested in learning about their favorite artists. It also features images from music festivals like Reading and Glastonbury that the target audience is likely attending. Fashion photos advertising boots, jeans, and musical instruments will also appeal to readers. Logos of other successful indie magazines like Q and NME are included to brand the publication while also competing with these magazines. Abnormal and unique images will intrigue readers and help the magazine stand out.

2. Firstly, I have included images of musicians that are successful and most popular in the genre such as: Coldplay, Arctic
Monkeys, Oasis and Ian Brown. It is also key to have such big names as these because these are most likely to bring in
audiences as this is what they are reading the magazine for, to hear about what their favourite musicians are doing and
what is new. Also, it is vital to have large bands in your magazine as it represents dominance over other magazines as
they might not have been able to get an interview with that artist, highlighting your uniqueness.
Additionally, I have images from festivals and concerts that my target audience are most likely to be attending like
Reading and Glastonbury as it news about these events that are going to interest my readers as they are more than likely
to be attending one of the festivals that I have mentioned. There are also pictures of the crowds at these festivals as these
will both persuade the audience to go to ones in the future as they can see how much fun they are having, but also for the
readers who have already been to recap on how much fun they had.
Fashion is another array of images I have selected to include as the people who read magazines regularly are aware
that adverts are used frequently to advertise to them items that are going to be appealing to them. I have included the
general types of items that will be advertised in the magazine (which will normally be fashion) like boots, jeans but also
musical instruments and equipment.
Finally, I have the logos of other successful indie magazines like Q and NME. I have these on here to highlight how
just having their logo on my mood board is enough to recognize what the item is and it is this strong successful brand
image that I am also trying to create, as this is needed in order to form a relationship with the audience. However, my
magazine will also be competing with these magazines and will therefore have to have a unique twist on the formulaic
magazine from the genre.

3. All of the images above are unique and when used in an article or double-page spread will both intrigue the reader but
also grab their attention and it is these factors that make the image successful as it persuade the reader to read the
article. I will try to create images that are different and abnormal in order to generate the same success but also to make
my magazine more interesting. Plus, I like the idea of using different effects or images with no colour as I believe it
makes the photograph more striking but also adds originality to my magazine.
