Proposal

The Music Magazine (MM) I plan to make will mainly focus on the genre of Rock and Heavy Metal. I have chosen these genres because these are the genres that I am most interested in myself and I have a good knowledge of the whole scene of heavy metal and rock. I have read a lot of articles and interviews which also focus on this genre so I am confident I can create a Magazine which emulates this particular type of magazine. I want my magazine to cover all the current news about the currently famous bands. My magazine should also cover live reviews, album reviews, artist interviews and more.

In my magazine I plan to have a wide variety of content, I hope this will make the magazine noticeable. The main feature of each issue of my magazine would most likely be interviews of various bands or solo artists that have recently caught the attention of other media outlets. I also plan to report on music festivals such as Reading and Download. My magazine will also include current news about the Rock and Heavy Metal World.

Since my MM is based around the Heavy Metal genre, I want the style to look very rebellious and reckless. However, not reckless in the sense of production but more in the style e.g. cracked and damaged text for headings. The colours will be mostly black and grey which signifies the genre that the magazine covers. Black has connotations of evil, destruction, and power, which is generally how Metal bands like to be viewed as.

My target audience will be in the age group of 15 – 28 years old. I have chosen this particular age group because people of these ages tend to be the most passionate group about music and bands; this age group can also tend to be in a band which makes them further interested in MM. My audience will mainly be aimed at middle and working class as the type of linguistics used in my magazine will not be an incredibly high class way of writing but will be written in a well educated way.
