The magazine will be called Liberty and focus on pop music genres like artists Beyoncé and Rihanna. It will be black and white with splashes of color cost £3 monthly and target teenage girls. It will provide entertainment, news, gossip about popular artists and keep readers informed about latest music industry happenings. The flatplan shows the magazine will include articles, interviews, reviews, charts, photos and ads.

1. STYLE SHEET
My colours are fairly basic, most of the magazine
cover will be black and white however there will be
a splash of colour round the text boxes and maybe
the masthead.

2. TITLE
The title of my magazine is Liberty. The name comes
from the statue of liberty in New York, I wanted my
magazine to be high end and have a feel of New
York City. Some of the biggest artists in the world
come from and work in New York and it is seen as a
very popular place to be seen.

3. GENRE OF MUSIC
The genre of music in my magazine is going to be
pop. Artists such as Beyoncé and Rihanna would
feature in my magazine . The biggest and best artists
in the pop and R’N’B world would be the sort of
people to have big spreads in my magazine. The
adverts will focus on teenagers especially girls so
adverts for Topshop and other brands like that.

4. COVER PRICE
My magazine will retail at £3 because after my survey
was completed a lot of people said that they would
pay around that much for a magazine that was
released monthly. This also compares to other music
magazines out there such as Q and my magazine is
very similar to this type of magazine.
PUBLICATION PATTERN
I plan to release my magazine every month. This
means more content than a weekly magazine but
makes it more expensive because you only buy it
once a month. My survey showed that people prefer
to buy a magazine less regularly but it to have more
content.
