Formal Proposal-Task 10
The document outlines a proposal for a music magazine called "Studio" focused on indie/rock music. The target audience is males and females aged 16-24 who enjoy going to concerts and learning about their favorite artists. Initial ideas include using striking images on the cover and contents page along with consistent formatting and fonts. A double page spread would feature an interview with a popular band along with additional photos to engage readers.
Quesiton 3
Bauer media would be a suitable company to distribute an indie rock magazine because it is Europe's largest privately owned publishing group that publishes magazines for a wide range of audiences, including established titles like Kerrang and Q magazine that cover similar indie/rock genres and have found success in that market.
Task 8 summary of results
The document summarizes the results of a questionnaire given to 12 people aged 16-24 who are interested in indie/rock music. [1] Key findings include that respondents listen to bands like Arctic Monkeys, Kings of Leon, and Paramore, and are attracted most to the instruments and vocals used in the genre. [2] Most said they would pay £2-£3 for a magazine and want exclusive news and interviews. [3] This information will influence the content and design of the author's indie/rock music magazine to ensure it appeals to this target audience.
Drafts of front cover, contents page and double page spread
The document provides draft designs for the front cover, contents page, and a double page spread for a music magazine. The front cover features the magazine title, pull quote, band names, competitions, main image, and price. The contents page lists the issue number, masthead, main image, editorial, article titles with page numbers, and images of other articles. The double page spread includes a pull quote, main image of an artist, and text of an interview article.
Analysing music magazines-Kerrang
The document analyzes different elements of music magazine covers, contents pages, and articles based on an example from Kerrang magazine. Key elements that connect the different parts include using the same masthead, font styles, and promotional "flashers." Photographs and articles feature bands and styles that would appeal to the magazine's target audience of mostly male and female middle-to-working class readers interested in rock music genres. Common colors like black are used throughout to maintain visual cohesion across pages.
Task 8
This document contains a survey for research on a proposed music magazine targeting 16-24 year olds interested in indie/rock music. It asks respondents about their music preferences, what attracts them to the genre, how much they would pay for the magazine and their opinions on content, covers and articles. The survey aims to better understand the target audience to create a successful indie/rock focused magazine.
Construction of the contents page
Using InDesign, Rosanna Todd created a contents page for her music magazine by adding the main image, masthead, and coverlines. She then edited fonts and added more images, the issue number, cover date, editorial, and page numbers. Finally, she completed the contents page by editing subtitles to stand out more, changing the masthead color to yellow, switching the editorial image, and adjusting fonts and page numbers until satisfied with the design.
