MUSIC MAGAZINE PLANNING

PLANNING
Now that i have finished my school magazine, we are now creating music magazines

We now are turning our attention to the Music press.

IN LESSON we discussed:

the record industry used to work and why its in crisis today- new technology=means of production & distribution in the hands of the creators, but fall in CD sales means not as much revenue to encourage and fund new music.

We also discussed the importance of music in Youth Sub culture

I have bought a music magazine that you i will scan and then go onto to annotate.

ROUGH PLANNING:

I have bought the magazine 'NME' to study and use as it fits with the genre i am going for

The audience that NME appeals to according to their website is-

"

• 65% Male*
• 50% 16-24*
• 23% 25-34*
• 79% ABC1*

                                         "

The reason i chose the magazine 'NME' is because i like the look of it, i like how the name of the magazine stands out at the top and overrides the model behind (Florence one of my favourite artists), i think i may use this look in my magazine' I know already that i font i want to use for my magazine which i think stands out which is similar to 'NME' is the font i used in my school magazine. The name of this font is : 'CAPITALS' on photoshop. Photoshop is the software i am using to create my front cover, contents page and my double page spread on my artist/band.

This is the article featured on florence, I like how the artist is featured on half on the spread however my article will need to be alot more detailed.

I went onto the internet and found another double page spread on florence which i preferred

MY MAGAZINE NAME-

I am thinking of my magazine title being called    'VOLUME'

I have decided to call my magazine VOLUME because..
