We have decided that our age range for the music magazine will be about 16-24 years old. We belive that this is the best audince to target because they are the main age that is affected by mainstream pop/rock. They can hear it on radio's, through their friends and social event, and sites like facebook and other social networks. They also all have some sort of music devise, it may be an iPod or MP3. We have also decided that we wouldn's want a specific gender for our magazine, we would like it to be for both girls and boys, because if we did have it for just girls for example then we would be having to try find a band or single artist each week that just aimed their music at girls. which would be quite a challenage. But we would also like to aim it at a mixed gender because we want a large market audience.
Music is a large part of a teenager's life, they listen to it basically everyday, via ipods when travelling, working, cleaning, walking etc. or it's a good talking point, they normally talk about whats in the charts or who's hot at the moment. Also they can relate their lives to it and feel that they're not alone with their problems.
Our magazine is an attempt to attract younger people to listen to mainstream pop/rock bands. We will do this wit ha feature every week on a band, eaither old or new depending on whats the talk of the week, and have some spontanious or photo shoot photo's of them also along with maybe an interview, or looking to the lives of their tours and general life. We'll also have a section where the audience can write to the magazine and say what they think would be best for the magazine, and if the magazine needs to be improved at all. To attract the audience to the magazine we will also have free give aways, it might be vouchers so they can download new hits off the internet for free, also might include gig tickets and other music related objects, e.g. headphones. Also competitions will be included so you can win things, like a day with the band, or V.I.P tickets .Also we'll have chart listings for the singles and the albums, qand what new releases are coming out that week or month.
We will make our magazine stand out from the rest by making it look really cool, relaxed and have a modern style that teenagers and young adults can relate to. Also we'll make it colorful and vibrant, make it stand out from the rest so people will go into a shop and straight away see our magazine over everyone elses.
