                  For more information about what a music magazine
                  is visits http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_magazine
What context would you expect to find in a music magazine?

•Gossip-whose dating who, fashion etc
•Letters pages-once more linking to the intimate relationship music fans have with the
magazine
•Articles-artists
•Reviews-gigs, films, music
•Adverts and promotion-relevant to target audience-they reflect
•Tour/gig dates
•Ringtone downloads
•Countdowns- best album etc
•Technology-the gadgets that link to music as most of the target audience are very dedicated to
the specific genre and therefore would like to learn about how to get more pleasure, using
technology out of their music.
•Quotes
•Interviews
What images would you expect to find in a music magazine?
•Bands/artists
•Live performances eg: Glastonbury
•Merchandise
•Music eg: CD covers
•People relevant to the genre of music and the article such as a band manager
•Quite mature and adult images-can be scary, have mature themes and may contain nudity         ( it all depends though on the genre and the
content as rock magazines can be quite provocative compared to classical music magazines)
•The backgrounds and props used in the images can illustrate a specific genre such as graffiti and a boom box has connotations linking to
urban music and an electric guitar can be associated with rock music as well as other genres.
Music magazines have general characteristics and features that we expect to find when reading music
    magazines. Together they help create a professional magazine that satisfies the music genre/culture and the
                                target audience. Here are what we would expect:

•   Artist information/Band index
•   Bold and striking colours
•   Masthead
•   House style which creates an identity for the magazine and familiarity for the target audience
•   Main story/ cover line
•   Main image
•   Supplementary Images
•   Countdowns- albums and artists
•   Reviews-gigs, artists
•   Covermounts- CD’s, clothing, posters etc
•   Competitions
•   Adverts/promotions
•   Variety of fonts
•   Lots of content
•   Hugely image based
•   Rule of thirds which helps create a neatness to the magazine and also interest for the reader as the cover
    especially looks inviting and exciting
•   Articles- current and upcoming artists, news
•   Interviews
•   Letters pages
•   Editorial
•   A list of all those involved in the production of magazine –eg: marketing, features etc
•   Crosswords
•   Price/issue number/date
Identify general characteristics/features you would expect to find in all music magazines?
