Genre/Target Audience Ideas

Genre/Target Audience for my magazine

I intend to produce a new rock music magazine, focusing on the front cover, contents page and a double page spread which will be the main focus of that issue. The magazine will be aimed at teenagers and young adults - the appropriate age group being 14 - 20 year olds - who are interested in current and classic rock music. Due to the target audience, the features will primarily be based on new artists and singles that they will be enthusiastic about. I may also promote other areas that will reflect the target audience's interests - such as news and events or new albums, for example. There wil be a focus on imagery and the presence of the main star through the front cover photograph, most likely. Due to the classic style of the genre, I do not intend to use a flashy, colourful house style, and will perhaps concentrate on black and white so as not to distract the target audience. I will intend to use a variety of images so that there is not one specific style of artist in the magazine, so incorporating medium shot photographs and some more specific images as well.
