Coursework Stage 2 Planning

Stage 2 Planning


Describe your idea for the brief:
I am going to make and indie/rock magazine aimed at readers 15-30, I will use most of the major conventions e.g. masthead and main image. The images I will use will be of the band I am a member of. I will make sure I get good images of good quality for my magazine.
Genre/ sub genre:
The genre of my magazine will be of the indie/rock genre. Some bands I am inspired by are people that I created my inspirational texts blog post about, here:  (http://lawrencenormanasmedia.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/inspirational-texts.html) they are bands like arctic monkeys and the vaccines.
Target audience:
The target audience of my magazine is both males and females aged 15-30 who are in the ‘indie/indie rock scene’ who are generally people who go to festivals like Leeds etc, and people currently in the ‘mod’ and others scene.
Major conventions:
 I will use are; a masthead across the top of my page, with the main image over the top of it in places, the main cover line along the bottom. I will have subheads along the right hand side of the page and Essential info in the bottom right
Original images:
My images are going to of the band I am a member of. I will have images of guitarists, instruments, and shots of the microphone and the singer as the main image.
Potential difficulties/ Plan B:
Finding the right font I want (having a backup font)
Getting images that are good quality, look good and being the right size. I will make sure I have backup plans to get good images.

  1. Lawrence, this is a good overview of your plan for your music magazine, you have considered your target audience, genre and ideas for the images you plan to include in your product, as well as highlighting potential difficulties.
