Music magazine front cover draft:

The reason for the masthead choice is because the word 'Pulse' sounds very energetic and modern. It is also only short which is catchy and memorable. The main picture shown looks affective and clear to who the person is as the model is wearing symbollic equipment to R&B making the target market clear.

Picture's taken for my music magazine

All of these picture's were taken on a cannon 1000D camera.

Although this picture looks very effective, the picture may not look right in the magazine as the top half of the head is cropped off.

This picture wasn't chosen for my magazine as the model isn't looking towards the camera, and this means that the audience cannot engage with the audience.

This image looks very effective as the model is shown to be looking into the distance, however, the camera angle makes the model to look far away in the sense that they are pushing away from the wall. It also wasn't chosen as other picture's looked a lot more effective.

Audience, price and publish

As my intended target audience are the age of 16-24 I will need a price which is suitable for this age group. Most teenagers are in education rather than having a highly paid job, therefore do not earn a lot of money so my magazine price needs to be affordable in order for them to buy it. I will publish my magazine every monthly because not only will my magazine provide different and exciting contents every month, my magazine can advertise for the following months and offer coupons which will persuade readers to buy the continuing magazine which will result in more buyers, long term.

However, a competitive price will be needed to compete in the market. Therefore, I will price my magazine at £2.90 as this is a reasonable price for the target market. This should be affordable for my target market as it is published monthly. The date of publish, target audience and competitors have been taken into account when setting a price for my magazine.

Initial ideas and drafts

All of these magazines are a rough draft of what my music magazine layout will be like. This is also the information which will be included. These images will help me plan how my images will be layed out to be like. These images help me decide how I will take my photographs and what clothing the model should wear. They also give me an idea on how to set them out (plain background). The text of the artist's name (Jennifer Hudson) in that font and colour scheme looks very effective and I believe I should use this on my music magazine. Depending on my image, my masthead title may differ to red as this will stand out and make the magazine noticable. The masthead will cover up the full top 1/4 of the page as this is the main focus of the magazine.

Digital mock up:

This gives me an indication on how the layout of my magazine will look. This helps me plan my magazine as it shows whether my layout will work or if it will be cramped.

Target audience

Audiences are separated into groups using quantitive data; on gender, age and social class. Gender is separated into two categories; male and female. This can then be separated into ages: 15 and under, 16-24, 25-35, 36-55 and 56 and over. I have decided to aim my magazine at both male and female but mainly females, this will age from 16-24. This is because from my research I found that it is mainly young females that like this sort of music (R&B). My target audience is most likely to be in the c-d grade (unemployed/semi-skilled workers). This should be the correct target audience as most 16-24 year olds are in education, or recently gone in to work. Therefore, making a low price for the magazine should be correct. They would like to see a main image that covers the whole page which is appealing to them perhaps showing attitude. Also, a good main headline. Tease devices such as winning tickets to an R&B concert which will appeal to them. They will also want good main headlines which will interest them and persuade them to buy the magazine. Demographics are important so I can figure out more about my target audience. Including relatively new bands in my magazine should make young readers interested in the magazine and buy it. Therefore, my front cover should be very appealing and eye catching meeting the target audience's needs. 

My chosen music genre

For my music magazine I will create an R&B music magazine. The main R&B magazine is Vibe. This is because I like this style of music and therefore know a lot about it. R&B magazine's are all different and are targetted to men and women as this is a wide music genre. I will focus my magazine on females but also males. I looked on R&B music charts and noticed which artists featured on this, these consist of; JLS, Rizzle Kicks and Professor green. These artists are supported by males and females. However, JLS mainly have female fans. An example of a music magazine I found of this genre is:


This magazine will be aimed at men and women. However, this magazine in particular is more focussed on the male audience as it talks a lot about sex. This magazine shows attitude which can be considered for my magazine. This is aimed towards the younger audience as it shows attitude and a young artist.


This magazine shows an audience of males and females. However, this one is slightly more leading to female fans of women hence the body. This magazine features an MCU shot of Chris Brown which will appeal to a lot of people.


These images help me decide how to plan my music magazine and what to include in it.    

Middle page spread

This double page spread is from the rock/indie magazine 'NME'. This contains monochrome colours. The blue in this double page spread connotes indie. The colour also shows that it is vibrant this helps promote for a wider audience. The page title is given in the top left hand corner(byline) followed by a caption underneath. The purpose of this article is to entertain and inform the audience ('need to know' box). It shows that its purpose is to entertain by having a quote 'Of course we're a sexual band. We're the teenagers and thats all they think about'(pull quote) which has a comical tone. There is also use of colloquial language when it says 'Young, dumb and full of..filthy tunes'. From this double page spread you can tell that the audience is 16-24's (young-mid audience) and that the older generation most probably wouldn't like this. The font in this magazine is a mixture of serif and sans-serif. All the text in this magazine is simple and direct, it all stands out to the reader and is clear to read as they have bold statements which will attract the audience. The photograph is a high angle shot of the band. The big image is eye catching and will attract the younger audience. This magazine helps me plan my own magazine as highlighting main elements is very effective and they use certain devices to attract their audience. They also use drop capitals which looks very good.

The main image takes up one whole page spread this shows what the article is about and appeals to the audience and makes it clear what the article is about as the image relates to it. The article has a 'C' which covers almost the whole page this looks very effective and appealing to the audience. At the bottom left hand side there is a pull quote which is taken from the article this is often informative or humorous and gives the reader a brief look at what the article is about. Another image is shown at the bottom right hand side of the article and this shows the reader more information on the article. The colour scheme of red and black is very effective and appealing to the audience. The mise-en-scene of Cheryl Cole of the main image fits in with the colour scheme and leather, black and studs are usually related to rock.

The main attraction this double page spread is the page title. The text is written in a dark and bold font, highlighted in yellow which stands out shows that the text is important. This has been made to stand out as it is important information to this article. The use of artists has been used to attract people into buying the article as Rihanna is one of the most famous R&B icons around and Drake is well known for been an R&B artist. Therefore, this article attracts both male and female artists to attract a wider audience. The text that’s says ‘RIHANNA ft Drake’ Rihanna is all in capitals and Drakes isn’t I feel they have done this because Rihanna is the main person as the article is about her but you know it will mention Drake, I feel they have put the text in blue because it is more of a male related colour then yellow so it is trying to attract the male audience. The second attraction is the column on the right hand side which shows Rihanna's past hairstyles which people may want to copy. This will appeal to the female audience as they will be interested in this and it also gives the reader more information about Rihanna. The main image stands out as it is directly in the middle of the page and Rihanna is looking directly towards the audience this is a conventional approach.  Another main attraction goes down to the terminal area. The first thing you see is a little yellow box that has a sub title saying ‘along similar lines’ it is short and catchy which will make  people want to read it. The colour scheme is in yellow, black and white. This is effective as they all stand out when they are put together as they are contrasting colours. The background of this article is in white which makes everything else on the page stand out and putting the side column with a black background makes it stand out. These features make the magazine more appealing to the audience and therefore may choose this over others on the market. This page consists of more pictures than text as for this age group are not as likely to be as interested in reading the articles. The article is promoting Rihanna's new single which is also shown in the page title which makes it sound catchy. The text is also persuasive which will persuade the audience to buy/listen to Rihanna's new single. The main title is also a rhetorical interrogative which involves the reader. This magazine is aimed at 16-24's which have an interest in R&B as the artist and text shows.

Contents page

This magazine includes a page title of 'Contents' this informs the reader of what is on this page. It also has a 'features' section which includes everything in the magazine. It has an 'Oasis special' this will be aimed at fans of Oasis another persuasive device to get people to buy it. The colour scheme is continuous as the colours of red and black has carried on. This magazine contains a large, bold font. As I researched various magazine's I realised that 'Q' contents pages and covers all use the same layout on each page to keep it consistent. The letter 'Q' is used on every page which could be seen as their "stamp". The 'Q' means 'quality'. Their use of the colour red, white and black shows consists well together and stands out. This could also make the magazine type and genre more recognisable. They use a review box which can be read quickly. They put the headlines in capital letters to make it more noticeable. The main image is placed to the right of the page which will be noticed straight away as the reader turns onto this page. Having a contents page makes an overview of the magazine and informs the reader what is in it and where. The image is a long shot which shows the whole body, this works well for the magazine as it makes it the main focus. The target market of this magazine is fans of rock as shown by using rock artists to represent and appeal to the target audience. The artists in this magazine are shown to have attitude and to look professional.


'NME' was published in 1952 they have an audience of 16-26 year olds, the genre is indie/rock. This magazine was the first british paper to include a singles chart and was the best selling British music magazine in 1970. This is a contents page of 'NME' which is clearly marked on the magazine in the red font (logo) this is followed by 'this week' showing what is in the magazine. Every section has a heading of the category e.g. 'news'. The headings make it easier for the reader to read the page they want to. The main image is unusually a music venue instead of an artist however, many famous have performed here. Readers will be interested in this to find out more on the recent news. This magazine has an advert for a magazine company which has relevance to this as you can buy NME on a subscription. The colour scheme carries on throughout the magazine as shown on this page (the consistent colours of red and black). The main image is in the centre of this page showing that this is the main focus and attraction. The target market of this magazine is fans of rock as it has rock artists included in the magazine and rock language which will appeal to the target audience.

This contents page is from an R&B magazine 'Vibe'. R&B music is usually aimed towards women and this is shown on the magazine. It aims to catch the audience's eye by the main image and appearance. The page title is shown in a big and bold font. The image is of an R&B artist 'Ciara', she is very famous and this will attract people to buy the magazine. The image is a long shot which works well for the magazine as it shows the whole body. The image will attract readers due to her lack of clothing and the image is made to look 'sexy' as she has heels on and very little clothing this adds to the music stereotype. The clothing which Ciara is wearing also blends in well with the colour scheme this makes it look more professional. Although, Vibe magazine isn't only aimed at women but also men at the age of roughly 16-24's.  The image will attract both females and males. Women may be interested in this because they idiolise Ciara or some may not be interested in her. Men may admire Ciara persuading them to buy the magazine. The layout of this magazine is very basic as it is aimed at younger males and females. The faded grey background and black text makes it easier for the audience to read. The masthead is written in white which makes it the main focus and informs the reader what is on this page.

Brief of a music magazine

Preliminary excercise
Using DTP and an image manipulation program, produce the front page of a new school/college magazine, featuring a photograph of a student in medium close close-up plus plus some appropriately laid-out text and a masthead. Additionally you must produce a mock-up of the layout of the contents page to demonstrate their grasp of DTP.

Evaluation of my magazine

The masthead on my college magazine is written in a bold font in Wyke college's colour scheme this makes students from the college aware that it is targeted towards them. The magazine has several headlines to give the buyer a brief taste of what the magazine is like and what is in it. I have mainly used the colour's purple and white as the colour scheme as this is basic and not too much (house style). The layout of the magazine has been made so if it was on a shelf the masthead would be shown so buyers can go straight to it and also so the headlines are shown. The main picture has been put in the middle so it is the main focus and so it shows a student learning giving Wyke a good reputation. Strap lines are used under headings to sum up a brief description of the story, using strap lines supports the headings and gives the reader more information. Teasing content has been used on the bottom of the magazine to promote a competition of winning a free ipad 2 this persuades the reader to buy the magazine.

This magazine would be distributed within the college as it is niche. Selling the magazine in a shop would be unnecessary as the magazine is aimed at Wyke students. However, posters around the college may be used to promote the magazine and make people more aware of it. Emails could be sent to students reminding them that the magazine is on sale. Also using the television and college Intranet would be appropriate as it is all internal, these all spread awareness.

This college magazine gives the students information on upcoming events and news within the college this gives them more knowledge on what is going on in their college. The college magazine is aimed to show that Wyke is a serious, hard working college and all the students work to the best of their ability. The magazine shows that Wyke has a good reputation and is a very good college to be at.

The college magazine would be aimed at Wyke college students because it has all the information about Wyke in and events. People from other colleges wouldn't buy this magazine as it isn't in interest to them. I attracted my audience by calling the masthead 'Wyke' making it obvious who the magazine is aimed at (Wyke college students). It is also shown that it is aimed at the students of Wyke as it shows a student on the front working hard and headlines on how to pass exams. The college magazine is a niche market and would only be aimed at the students from Wyke because they have different tastes and concerns to other colleges. However, is aimed to the whole college as they are all at Wyke for the same reason in which to pass.

The college magazine represents different social groups as there is a jobs section in which unemployed students can try and find work. The representation of the magazine is shown to be realistic and true, unlike some other magazines. The magazine has a certain reason to inform students instead of entertaining. The magazine is made to appeal to all students as it is very colourful and modern. If the magazine had old, boring fonts people are less likely to buy it. Also, advertising parties for Wyke students stereotypes students as it shows they all like to party and are outgoing. The student in the main image connotes the college to be hard working and successful.

Feedback

The magazine has a good colour scheme and represents the college well which makes it noticeable for the students. The information on the magazine is very persuasive making the reader want to buy. The title is very clear to who the magazine is aimed at. However, the layout could be improved. Overall, it is very good because it brings a lot of messages across.

How I would promote my magazine

I believe that the best way to promote my college magazine would be by putting posters around the college to make people more aware of it. Another way is by sending emails, these could be sent to students reminding them that the magazine is on sale and when the next issue is out. Also, using the television and college Intranet would be appropriate as it is all internal, and around the college making everyone aware of the magazine. These would all spread awareness.

Front Page

This is my final front cover design. I decided on this concept by looking at my drafts and seeing what could be improved one of these was by putting a picture as the background rather than having it plain. I added a teasing contents across the bottom to persuade people to buy the magazine and also to show what else is included in the magazine. I spread the text out so it is easier to understand and didn't overcroud the front page as this needs to be simple to catch the readers eye. I used this background as it is fresh and colourful which should be advertising. The colour scheme is mainly purple and white (Wyke college's theme) but added other colours to headings to make them appeal to the audience. The main image shows a student learning which shows a good reputation of the college and is relevant to the magazine and heading 'How to pass your exams'.

Contents Page

This is a mock of my contents page. I have given the background of this page the same colour as the logo to provide consistency. I have included images to make the page more interesting and give the writing more meaning. It also looks more appealing to the audience as they can see it visually. The pictures include page numbers so they can quickly look and skip to the page. For example, i did this for the bus picture as they may be in a rush and need the information quickly.

Drafts

Draft 1:
This is a basic setting of how i will set my college magazine out. However the college magazine will be portrait instead of landscape.

Draft 2:
This draft shows how my college magazine will be set out. It shows the masthead with headings. It also shows the issue number and the price that the magazine will be published at. However, the text isn't shown very clear and therefore, a different background image or font and colour would have to be used.

Draft three:
This draft features everything I will include on my front page college magazine. The layout is very basic making the main focus the masthead and main image. The headings also stand out and will appeal to the target audience.

Planning/Development

 This photograph could be used for the front cover. It would give a good impression on Wyke because it shows a student learning.

This photograph shows a studying area, promoting the college showing it has good resources (the books). This although shows a warm and calm environment. 

 This picture shows the buses. Showing that it is easy to access the college and arrive there and back.

This photograph shows the front entrance of Wyke college. This could be used as the front cover as it shows what the college looks like. The bikes also show a method of transport and that bikes are safely locked up outside.

 This photograph could be used for the front cover as it shows a student happily learning. The background could be cut out on photoshop and the picture could be placed on to the front cover with the front entrance of Wyke as the background image.

 This image shows another student happily learning with a building of Wyke in the background.

 This image shows a student learning in a calm environment with resources around her.

This image promotes the art work done at the college by a student. This shows high quality work.

Digital Mock-up

Initial ideas

These fonts are going to be considered for my magazine cover as the masthead. The reason for this is because they are the theme of my college (Wyke) is purple. Using this colour will help represent the college. This is important for the magazine as it must stand. These fonts seemed most appropriate as they are clear and bold this should stand out more than any other magazine. Having a basic and clear font makes the magazine look more formal, this makes the magazine look better hopefully persuading people to buy it.

Price and Publisher

The price is one of the key concepts of creating a magazine, and should be thoroughly thought about. This is because if the magazine is too expensive people are less likely to buy it. If another magazine is cheaper they are more likely to buy that unless the magazine has something the other one doesn't have. For my college magazine I will price it at £1 as student's even have part time work or unemployed which means they won't be able to afford anything pricey. If the magazine is too expensive for them then no one else will buy it, therefore it must be affordable for them to purchase it. Research i carried out shows that it is harder to find a job with a decent pay which means more people will be coming to colleges to have better qualifications for future life.
My magazine will be published every 3 weeks, as there isn't enough information for it to be published every 1-2 weeks. Publishing it every 3 weeks means a lot of notifications can be included and information. 

Target audience

http://goanimate.com/movie/0H_yYc6437J8?utm_source=linkshare&uid=09HZaJGrDRqE

I have researched target audience, and I found that aiming my wyke college magazine at both male and females will be most appropriate, as it is a wider audience. This will range from ages 16-19 as this is the age area students go to college. The target audience will be aimed at college students which attend the college. This will be shown by including a student on the front page of the magazine and a masthead called 'Wyke'. Naming the magazine 'Wyke' will be visible to the students so they know that it is aimed at them. For example, school pupils would not buy this as they don't attend the college so wouldn't be interested in it. 

Contents Pages

This contents page shows the title at the top, informing readers what this is. The contents page includes a features section; including what is in the magazine and the page reference. It contains images of the college which work and pupils on which shows more about the college. The colour scheme is continuous and includes 3 colours; green, black and white. The font is very clear, which stands out to the reader with an appropriate layout which isn't confusing understand.

This magazine shows a clear page title 'inside this issue' which informs the reader. The font is in a very creative text which looks good. The font is also large and clear. An advertisement is used 'Discounts your ID gets you' showing if you read the magazine you can save money. This page has different features in sections dividing them off from each other; making it easier for the reader to understand. The them is very appropriate as it has a basic background and consists of black and white with colourful images. However, page numbers are not given which this needs to be done. 

Front Page Conventions

The masthead is written in bold, red writing which makes the magazine name stand out. The main image supports the masthead which shows the target audience. The font used throughout the magazine is bold and stands out which will attract the readers. The headlines are supported by a kicker which gives the headline more detail. The colour scheme of this magazine cover is planned and the masthead is red which matches the main image. The magazine would have been made by the college as it is made to promote the college.

The masthead is written in bright, yellow text which makes the magazine look very effective and will look more advertising than other magazines in shops. The props in the main image support the masthead as it shows a college student holding books. It also shows a college student in smart but casual clothing. This shows the target audience to be students. The font used throughout the magazine is in capital letters in yellow and white text. The colour scheme is black, white and yellow which looks very effective and attractive. The headlines are all in block capital letters and in a different colours. The target audience is 16-18 year olds(College students) this is shown by the masthead and the main image.
