Magazine Plan

Name: Variety - I'm calling my magazine this as it is includes and informs people about the variety of music out on the market.

Publishers: Development Hell Ltd

Price: £2.00- fairly cheap, a price that most teenagers can scrap together o any social class.

How often is published: Monthly

Glossy or Matt: Glossy- As it is more appealing.

Consumer profile: My magazine is going to be aimed at teenagers living in London. Although this is a rather small target audience i think it would help sell the magazine as it would have event listings and could help create a sense of committee within the magazine and its readers. Its going to be a mixed gender magazine creating the target audience to be larger.

Music genres: as the magazine is for a variety of different types of music it will include more than one style. each month it will mainly focus on a new style. the issue i am going to make will be focused on Dub step. other music types will included - Drum and Bass, Dance, Funky House, House, other up coming styles of music and chart music which appeals to everyone.

Contents page:

Ideas for for double page spread: For my double page spread i going to use an image of two young boy which have just started in the music industry. The article will be about their success so far and what the next year (2009) is going to hold for them.

i have read articles in Mix mag magazines which is also a magazine that have a variety of different musics and i have noted the way language is used and which words are used. however i shall also include words and phrases used by teenagers today to keep the article causal and close to the reader.

Magazine extras: i wont be giving away a free CD with my magazine as a Cd wont be given away with every issue the CD will match the main article/ artists featured in the magazine. As the artists used in this issue are new and haven't been discovered by many yet therefore wont encourage the reader to by the magazine for the CD, however free downloads are given out as well as competitions.

x4 original photo ideas: 1) An image of two young males, which are independent, individual and cool looking. this will inspire youths to buy the magazine as this might be the look they aspire to. 2) a background for the article which links to the front cover. 3) An image of the latest fashions for the contents page to give a quick example of the rest of the fashion feature to see whether it appeals to the reader. 4) As it is nealry summer information of music festivals will be in the magazine therefor i shall take pictures of a mock up music festival camp or use one from a festival i visited in the summer.
