Inital Plan

I have not yet completed the target audience survey which is why it is not filled in yet.

Magazine Genre Research


These are front covers from many different magazines in different genres. This research is to see what kind of bands are on what magazines and what target audience can be seen from the front cover. From these I can see there aren't many music magazines aimed specifically at young adult females. I quite like the layouts of the pop rock magazines, and I can see there is a gap in marketing for female pop rock magazines.

Contents Page Analysis



Name : Mojo
Edition/Date : September 1997
Main Story : Radiohead 'The inside story of rock's outsiders'
Contents
How is synergy created : -It has the same masthead but that is it. It has a different image. There is not much space but any space left is not the most prominent feature of the page, as this is the picture of Elvis which draws the eye.
-There are 23 articles and one picture as well as the masthead on the                                                      contents page.

How this has affected my research
  • This has shown me that there are a lot of articles on a contents page and that I will need to put planning and research into the the contents of the contents page.
  • This also helps as I think I will be able to look at this for research as it is pop rock, and I think I may do my magazine on pop rock.
