2. Vault of Adventure
◦ Adventure film magazine
◦ Description
◦ Vault of Adventure will be an Adventure film based magazine for the North London area.
◦ Online and print based.
◦ Purpose
◦ To promote local upcoming films.
◦ To entertain people.
◦ We are creating this magazine because there is currently no magazine especially targeted for North Londoners, and
number of new start up independent film companies all over the area.
◦ Vault will help to tell the story of these companies and give them the boost that they need.
◦ It will also let the readers and fans of adventure realise how many local films and productions are so near, with all the
developments in North London.
3. Content
◦ In our magazine we shall feature exclusive interviews with the stars of the film we will promote. This will also include
interactive games with them, that will be recorded and be viewable on the online version.
◦ The front covers will be pieces of art work (statement pieces), which are collectible by the readers.
◦ We shall also interview the film crew.
◦ We will have a main interview with the leading cast members of the film we are promoting.
◦ At the end of the interview we shall do a lighthearted game/quiz with the cast members to add comedic value.
4. Online version
◦ Free online version
◦ We will also have video versions of the interview on the online edition. There would be real potential for outtakes and
funny moments from the interview and game to go viral.
◦ This adds publicity and increases our audience.
◦ There shall also be smaller side interviews with the crew, covering life working on set.
◦ so we get a unique insight into film-making life and behind the scenes (BTS)
◦ The online distribution will be global, to target an international film audience - although the primary audience would
be London based. We shall promote the magazine through pop-up advertising.
5. Marketing, Promotion and Advertising
◦ There will be a competition to win tickets to the film premier, through quizzes based on adventure films.
◦ We shall include a QR code to the information of the online competition.
◦ This will create interaction from the audience and creates brand loyalty.
◦ Limited edition first issue with numbered copies (1/250). This will create a hype for the magazine and will create more buyers and will add
value and exclusivity to the brand. This will also make the magazine appeal to collectors.
◦ There will be vouchers - but only in the first issue - for money off the annual subscription, and also a free gift.
◦ This is from research about magazine subscriptions, e.g. each edition of the Beano offers a different free gift with every yearly subscription.
◦ Advertising
◦ Posters in local shops, cinemas, galleries, cafes and newspapers.
◦ On social media, we would devise a multi-platform online marketing strategy.
7. Unique selling point (USP)
