Language: My magazine cover will include a masthead, headlines, puffs, banner headline, price, date, issue number, photos of a band/artist, slogan and competitions. For the front cover of a music magazine, I could use many different camera angles, for example; extreme close up, medium close up, long shot etc. The contents page will include, an introduction to the magazine from the editor, a title "contents", a list of page numbers and what will appear on each page, a lot of photos with a caption and a page number with the article that it relates to and maybe a quote from a band that appears in the issue. The double page spread should include; numerous photos of the band/artist it is featuring, maybe some captions on the photos, an interview with the band/artist themselves, the page numbers, an eyecatching title and maybe a section with some background info of the band/artist. Also another thing that is included in a magazine is that it has a house style throughout - the same font/colour scheme throughout.
Institution: This is the label that produces the magazine. For my magazine, I am going to choose an existing label. My chosen label is between Bauer Media and Sonic Publishing. I decided to do one of these as I would like to produce a magazine alike to Kerrang! or Rocksound and those are the publishers of these magazines. But, on the other hand, since these publishers already have a magazine aiming at that genre, I figure maybe I would be better off going for IPC Media as they only produce NME which is a more indie based magazine.
Ideology: The messages I want my magazine to convey about my chosen music genre, which will be the more alternative rock scene like magazines such as Kerrang! and Rocksound, and target audience is that
Audience: My chosen audience is both genders, mainly aged from 14 - 20 years olds because I believe that they are most likely to be interested in the bands that I will be putting in my magazine.
Representation: I would like to represent my audience in a positive way and show them as quite bold, different individuals.
