a gap in the market for a more mature pop
magazine

7. FORM- Online soft copy

- 300dpi for print — clear quality
-72dpi for online-for fast loading
- Onto cheaper glossy paper to make it visually
attractive but however staying in budget for my
cheaply priced magazine
- 5/8 different pop artists - 30 double page spreads
including pages for advertisement, sponsorship,
q+a and competition information, therefore a 60
page magazine
- Appropriate amount of text to ensure enough
entertainment but not too much to bore my
consumers
- Information presented in a fun, colourful and
exciting way

8. TARGET AUDIENCE
- Primary target audience = 13-19
- Younger generation have more interest in new
music and interaction with it
- Drive to explore new artists
- Pop is the most common genre amongst this age
category
- Secondary target audience = LGBTQ teenagers
- Bright vibrant colour
- This means males can still enjoy this magazine
despite the stereotypical colours of pink appealing
to girls
- Includes both male and female artists
- Some males enjoy using makeup which is where
the LGBTQ target audience is a positive influence

9. STYLE
- Pink and orange
- Work and harmonise together
- Older age of target audience is 19
therefore the magazine has to contain an
aspect of maturity and class therefore the
contrasting black aspect comes in
- Still remain as much appeal to the lower
age of the target audience by the bright
vibrancy of the magazine
