Pitch for my magazine
UNIT 14 - DIGITAL MAGAZINE
General ideas for my magazine
The genre I have chosen is the sports genre. I have chosen this genre because I like the sports
genre and I read it a lot and have a good feel for what is required when creating one. The sports
magazine would cover a range of sports and would have exclusive content. My magazine will be
monthly.
I could also do a a movie magazine, as I have read a lot and know what it takes to make one, but
feel a sports magazine would be better for me to do
Topics
My sports magazine would include sporting exclusives in news and interviews with sporting
stars. Also would include reviews and analysis on sporting events, written by our qualified
writers who will have been at the event. The magazine will also include exclusive posters from
these events. Our main article and dominant image on the front cover will be on a big sporting
star that will turn heads when people walk past. It would also include tips for readers and help
them perform in a certain sport
Other magazines font covers
Other magazines double page spreads
Inspirations
The reason these front covers and double page spreads inspire is because they show sporting
stars, and have exclusive interviews with the stars, because the stars are so big this makes the
magazine very desirable and this is where I aim for my magazine to be. Some are simple but
effective and others using bright colours to grab your attention. This shows me different ways I
could go about doing my magazine and still be unique and create my own style.
Target audience
My magazines target audience will be, mainly male and would target the ages of 13-35, this is
because the magazine will include a lot of male dominated sports, and will contain content that
tailor to younger and older people
Colour scheme & Font
The colour will vary issue to issue based on the cover star, but will mostly have bright colours
that grab the attention of passers by and make the cover look modern. The font will be futuristic
and modern to give the magazine a youthful twist and make it eye-catching.
Examples of fonts I could use:
Name idea for my magazine
As my magazine is going to be a sports magazine, the name of the is going to be sports themed.
Some ideas I came up with:
Sports Time
Lethal Action
On Score
The name I favour most out of those ideas is Sports Time, as it will make it very clear what the
magazine is about and instantly attract sport fans.
How I will produce my magazine
My magazine will be a print magazine. I have chosen for it to be print as I feel that print is a safer
option the digital. I feel this because when it comes to digital magazines colours, fonts and
image. They appear differently to the viewer. Print will assure my magazine looks exactly as I
desire.
