Initial Ideas

Idea 1 – Rock

The target audience for a rock music magazine would be 15 – 25 year olds because they are the age group that would be most interested in a rock magazine, due to the artists that would feature and the overall genre therefore making it easy to appeal to them. The rock music genre is very popular with people within my target audience. A lot of artist’s music could be a part of the genre therefore allowing a wide variety of talent to be a part of the magazine.

Idea 2 – Pop

The target audience for a Pop music magazine would be the biggest out of all of the ideas due to its popularity with all ages; however 14 – 21 is the main target audience; however a uni – sex teen magazine based around pop music would work the best as they are the group that is most interested in the genre. Like with rock, a lot of artists make pop music which can mean that there are a lot of potential new artists available.

Idea 3 – Rap

The target audience for a rap music magazine would be at a higher age then that of a rock or pop music magazine which would then mean that there would be less people going out to buy the magazine. My target audience of 15 – 25 year olds would not apply to a rap magazine as it would a rock or pop, which means that it, would be at a disadvantage compared to the others when it came to designing and modelling the magazines house styles and artists.

Final Idea

The type of magazine that I will be choosing will be a rock magazine as the style and artists that would feature would be closer related to the ones that my target audience wanted therefore making the rock magazine easier to make my target audience happy and purchase the magazine.
