Foundation Production Portfolio Proposal

For my AS media coursework, I have decided to create a magazine. My magazine is going to be a music magazine and the genre of music is going to be pop. Stereotypically because of this, the target audience is going to be teenagers and young adults. I aspire to make my magazine have the same appealing factors such as magazines like Vibe, NME and Q. On my magazine cover, I am going to have a main sell line that will intrigue the audience and make them want to read further. I will also have additional subheadings that are linked to my magazine, and the target audience. I will make sure that my masthead is bold and in bright colours, so that it stands out and so the audience are fully aware of what the magazine is. I will have a main image on my magazine cover, and it is going to take up most of the page. Therefore it is important that I have a picture of someone the target audience can relate to, such as a popular or new music artist. If the audience are a fan of the person on the cover, they are more likely to buy the magazine. Overall I intend to satisfy the needs of my target audience with my music magazine.
