Idea 2


Todays lesson's was 'show and tell', we had to show are work and tell everybody what we were doing and what we are going to do next. My feedback as great and i had a change of heart. I have now chosen to make my music magazine 'Minum' into a one off special tribute to 'Iron Maiden'. I have chosen this as i have a lack of intrest in music instruments and other typical Rnb,pop and other bands. This is important as if im doing the magazine on something i like then i will be more motivated and will be easier to write about a band i like, rather then originaly writing about stuff i dont. The problem is that i will have to start from scatch so work will be difficult. My target Audience will be the same, but will directly focus to Iron Madiden fans. The magazine will now have a Iron Maiden ablum cover and the title 'Minum' will have the same font as Iron Maidens logo (this will be done using photoshop). The picture at the top is a example of what will be on the front cover. The magazine will still have other things then just iron maiden, but the double page spread will be about there history, recent tours, and fans opinuns.

Idea 1





Target Auidence: My target auidence is going to be both male and female people within the age group of 16-20 year olds. This will mean my magazine will be targeted to students and people who are interested in music. My magazine will have to intrested and make people want to pick the magazine up.

Action plan: Originaly i was going to do a typical music magazine containing band reviews, latest gigs/ shows and tours and a little about music equipment (i.e speakers, instruments and so on). Instead i plan on doing it the other way round, menaing it is focused on telling you the best equipment to get and has a little about bands and shows\gigs. To start i will be trying to find the most common of music brands such as Pearl, Yamaha, Lyan. I will then photograph the instrument and put it on the front cover to promot it and so the audience sees it and knows what it is. Also i will make the font of my title 'Minum' the same as the logo of the front cover instument. The pictures you see at the top are some examples of what i may use and are taken by me.
