2. Starting out
Starting out on my magazine I wanted to create something
original but that was familiar to the Indie rock audiences so
they would be able to recognise the magazine straight away.
3. For my front cover I have attracted my audience by useing a very unique
masthead font that is likely to catch the ‘indie rock’ type of audience, I think
this because the people who enjoy indie rock are very different in the scene
of clothing and style, so I believe that they would relate to this. On the front, I
have attracted my audience by advertising incentives such as ‘free Jake Bugg
poster’ and ‘My Morning jacket CD inside’. This will attract my audience as it
involves the bands/ artist that fit into the Indie-Rock category. Also my front
cover shows articles in the Magazine based on Indie- rock, for example ‘NEED
TO KNOW ABOUT INDIE-ROCK’ and ‘most underrated artists in the Indie-Rock
scene’ are both articles of my magazine, and this is highly likely to attract
people who enjoy indie rock.
4. • Also my cover star will attract the audience as his
clothing is much like what someone who likes the
Indie- Rock scene would wear. I also know the colour
scheme of the magazine, Black, Red White, will
attract people who like indie-rock music because
they selected them in the questionnaires. I also
attracted my audience with the colours I used, for
example my masthead is white on top of a black
background, these colours contrast and makes the
masthead stand out more to catch the viewer’s eye.
