Magazine Proposal

Magazine Proposal

     Type of magazine:  From my Poll 66% preferd reading a pop magazine, I believe bright colours will add to the fun effect that pop has to people. A Pop magazine full of information about famous pop artists who are making music now eg Take That, Rihanna, Maroon 5, Adele, Lady Gaga, LMFAO, Bruno Mars ect. These artists are in the news the most during the past month. My magazine will be based around their music as they appeal to both boys and girls for all occasions, my magazine will be a monthly magazine as this would provide more information and have more detail about the artists and how they are keeping in the music business. Also being a monthly magazine I am hoping to relate the style of my title to each season or holiday, this month is about fireworks so the style of my font will be related to fireworks. I believe this would make my magazine more interesting to the audience. Each artist is different however their music appeals to different ages. My target audience will be 17- 19 year olds, as this music appeals to them and my magazine will be about news, interviews, upcoming gigs which would be more suited for this age group.

     I plan to layout my magazine in different stages as this will be informative to my audience, my front cover with different images and titles to attract the reader, my main topic will be enhanced to show this is what I’m focussing on. Next my contents page containing the headlines of my “music news”, also a sample of images about the music industry, then my first double page of my main news followed by locations of popular gigs and a record of the number one best songs and albums at the moment.

For my front cover I plan to have a single figure in the image like the magazine "Billboard" however from my poll 100% votes were for having a main image placed in different areas of the page and titles placed everywhere aswell with the titles. The bright colours in the title make the magazine reconizable even when the title is covered by an artist.

This is opposite the front cover aimmed at the artist Eminem, This more brighter cover gives a mysterious image of the artist Adele, the way she pulls her collar up covering part of her face however the colours are more vibrant than the dark depth image of Eminem. I am hopping to use bright interesting tones and colours in my magazine as this would make it more interesting.

     I believe this magazine will succeed as the price of the magazine will be reasonable to my target audience as I know it is hard for young people to find jobs so the price of the magazine will not be too high as I want my audience to keep reading it. Therefore the price will be £2.20 I believe this is a reasonable price and matches the quality and quantity of the magazine.
