Language Each of my products need to contain:
- Masthead (short, memorable magazine title presented as a large, dominant icon to be noticed)
- The main image (full page) must be an MCU (face and shoulders only) and the subjects face must be able to be clearly seen, and make eye contact with the audience.
-Bright colour scheme with clear house-style of two or three main colours.
- Thumbnail images that illustrate other articles
- Anchorage
- Price & barcode
- Teasing contents along the bottom
- Competitions and free gifts
- Main article / feature advertised must relate to the main image.
Institution If I was producing a real magazine for an existing publisher whose other publications have something in common with mine such as NME then I’d be able to fill a gap in the market because as good as NME is, there isn’t a magazine that is mainly based on complete indie/rock and there is a lot of people who would like this type of magazine as indie/rock is extremely popular right now.
Ideology The message my magazine would create would be that music is very important and is a very historical feature which will represent our time (2011) There wouldn’t be morals as such but there will be values about tips on how to have a quality time at places like Leeds Festival and Glastonbury because the target audience is definitely going to be young music lovers who love live music and bands that are not mainstream.
Audience The target audience for my magazine is most definitely young music lovers who like going to festivals or would like to go to festivals and see bands that are indie, rock, rock & roll etc…
Representation I will represent the bands I add in my magazine to be passionate about music with interviews etc…and positive articles on music unless there are reviews on new albums that may not be that good. Stereotypically there wouldn’t be a stereotype. The demographics wouldn’t have a pacific gender as it can be for males and females and the age category would be 15-24 however that doesn’t mean the magazine wouldn’t be suitable for people over the age of 24.
