Photos for my indie-rock magazine

Gerenal planning for my Indie-Rock magazine

The genre of my magazine is Indie-Rock because I feel likes its an easy genre to do and its my favourite genre of music. The weekly price is £2.20 because thats an average price for a weekly magazine, also thats how much Kerrang! costs in the UK. The likes and dislikes fit Indie-Rock fans so would be more appealing to the audience. The name of the band 'Tyrell' is because the band members names have the first letter of their names as T, L, and R, so I put these letters together and came up with a boy band name called 'Tyrell'. The magazine name is called 'Stereo' because it makes the magazine look bold, like its loud. I will make sure the fonts of my magazine is bold and stand out to attract as many customers as possible, as well as the colours being bold. The inducements mixes in with the USP, I decided on that inducement because it definitely makes the magazine stand out, and more chance of making a profit, and the USP mixes in because its bascically the inducements thats my unique selling point.

Final planning for front cover of Music Magazine

This is the final planning for my front cover of my music magazine. I took bits of multiple Kerrang magazines to help me plan for my rock magazine. I'm hoping the more busier the front cover is the more it would stand out.

Also, the circle next to image of band would be a catchy slogan, for example 'voted no.1 rock band of 2013'

Kerrang! Music Magazine

Although the Kerrang! magazine is a rock magazine, this magazine is the closest magazine I could find that would be similar to my magazine, as my magazine is an Indie-Rock magazine. An Indie-Rock magazine is a mix of both Indie and rock, this means that the colours that I will include, the clothes my bands going to wear, the font etc is going to have to be based around the genre Indie-Rock. Kerrang is a magazine that I'm going to base my music magazine around, this is going to help me do my research for my magazine too. The target audience for Kerrang! magazine is going to be similar to my target audience, which is people who like Rock music, and above the age of 16. I would also use similar colours to the Kerrang! magazine, I'm going to use both bold, dark but vintage colours to make it obvious tha the genre of the magazine is Indie-Rock.
