Liiar Analysis of brief for music magazine

L-Language:

The magazine will include certain language items such as;

·        Mast head

·        Price/barcode

·        Colour scheme

·        Images

·        Pull out quotes

All the above points make a magazine cover more attractive and more appealing to the viewers. By including a mast head they can see who the magazine is and can guess what the magazine is about by the name.

A display of the price accompanied with a barcode gives it a general worth, so viewers can see the price on make a decision on purchasing it by what it has in it and the barcode gives it that professional look and authority to be an official magazine.

With a certain colour scheme any magazine can represent and send across the attitude that was created for that certain magazine.

With images the advertising of the contents is sent across quickly and easily, but it gives off a hint of what the magazine is presenting so that can sell the magazines intentions as well.

Pull out quotes sell the story inside the magazine and draw the viewer to buy the magazine just because it is selling something that the viewer wants to read.

I-Institute;

Other magazines have a similar theme to the magazine I am going to produce; because of this the rivalry between the magazines will create a competition on sales. The readers want a magazine about their favourite type of music, so the choice will force them to decide which one will be better for their thirst for information.

To make my magazine be more popular I will have to make the name clear and force the potential readers to look at my magazine by creating an appealing front cover that should draw them in towards the excitement displayed on the front cover.

I-Idea-ology;

The message I will be trying to send across to the readers is that the magazine is the best one for all the latest information and what is new or exciting.

I want the moral the magazine will set to say that the magazine is the top and best magazine so read it. This moral is to give out the belief that the magazine will be the best and command the respect and attention of the readers.

A-Audience;

The target audience will be those of all ages who have either an interest or a burning passion for what the magazine is giving to the readers.

Age will not be within my target range because you can be any age to enjoy a certain genre of music, so age will not be an issue because the magazines sole purpose is to inform the readers about the happenings within that genre of music.

R-Representation;

My magazine is going to represent all that is within a certain music genre, this is going to be done by; the style, colours, images and message sent across by the combination of all the other aspects to take into consideration when creating the magazine.   

The magazine represents a genre on the whole although there are sub-genres with in every genre so I will have to select key information and events from each sub-genre so my magazine will completely represent a whole music genre by displaying something from all the sub-genres of the main genre.
