The target audience for this magazine is a mainstream audience. It wont be gender specific and will target an age group of around 16-25. The sub-genre of the magazine is Alternative music, indie pop.
Possible titles for this magazine are:
Staged- The connotations with this title are it is kind of to do with a gig/festival. Bands play on the stage at a gig or festival
Cord- The connotations with this title are it is to do with a guitar. It could be short for Record or also is said the same as a ‘Chord’ on a guitar.
There will be a sell line that is just below this masthead.
Ideas for main cover image,
Three photos on the cover. A main photo in medium close up of an indie band with their instruments. Two smaller photos of other bands that aren't as well known as the main band.
Cover
Bloc Party and their new album.
Strip across bottom of the cover listing bands- Vampire weekend, Hadouken, Dan Le Sac, Santogold and CSS
Ideas for main splash article,
A review of Bloc Party’s new album INTIMACY. A review of a festival (Leeds) including the bands on the strip across the bottom of the cover.
Or an interview with one of the bands mentioned on the cover.
Ideas for other possible contents,
Interviews, Album Reviews, Gig Reviews/ Upcoming gigs, Festivals reviews.
Colour schemes- This magazine will have no more than four colours used throughout it to keep it simple. Black, White, Red and white. The background may be Grey. I might use navy blue depending on how busy these colours make the magazine look.
