Beyoncé would make a good main cover image because she is attractive, which would attract more male readers that are the target audience. She is also very well known and successful in the R&B genre. Many interesting stories could be written about her. Drake would also be a good choice as he is very successful in R&B and well known, so people would want to buy the magazine. He is attractive and would appeal to female readers. A good cover artist should be attractive, well known in the chosen genre of R&B, and have many potential article topics.

Researching Genre (indie music)
The document discusses the genre of indie rock music. It provides details on what defines the genre, noting that indie rock originated in the UK in the 1980s and is now used to describe alternative rock music and independent record labels. Examples are given of magazine covers promoting indie rock that use similar conventions, including a color palette of black, white and red and portrayals of artists wearing black and white casual clothing.

For example, grime artists dress more casually in tracksuits while R&B artists wear more denim and smart casual clothing. Additionally, how the artists pose can reflect their genre, with grime artists looking more threatening and R&B artists attempting a cooler look.
How did i attract my audience
The document discusses strategies for attracting an indie music audience to a magazine cover and contents.

On the contents page, moody images of people in plain clothes holding a guitar were featured to portray a typical indie fan interested in music. A band index was included to allow finding musicians and potentially attract new fans. The double page spread questions mentioned specific indie-focused events and artists to entice the target audience. Coherence of themes across the covers immersed readers in the content rather than design elements.

- 1. Examples of artists who I would have on my front cover and why By Courtney-Leigh Hoey
- 2. Beyoncé 1) The first reason why I would have Beyoncé as my main image is because she is very attractive, as my magazine is mainly targeted on men this would attract them more to my magazine having an attractive woman on the front cover. 2) Secondly she is a very well known artist to my genre, R&B. 3) Not only is she well known but she is a very successful artist. 4) There are many stories/articles that people would be interested in reading.
- 3. Drake 1) Drake is a very successful rnb artist, I would have him as my main image as he is very well known so people would want to purchase the magazine 2) It would be very easy to create a story/article that people would like 3) He is very attractive and will catch the eye of the female target audience
- 4. A good main image will include an attractive artist, one that’s well known to my chosen genre, which is R&B, also an artist that can have many storiesarticles written about them. You will find that all successful music magazines have these features when it comes to their main image.
