My initial ideas

My initial ideas

I want my magazine to be called Domino because I feel it is a catchy modern name that sounds like it could be a possible magazine name.

My target audience will be a mixture of personalities but under the age of about 25, as stereotypically, I don't feel people older would be interested in this kind of music and in my opinion, it reaches out to a younger audience. I want it to have a wide target audience so it has many readers and is popular. I think because it is has a mixed variety of music included in it, but more rap and hip hop it will have a large audience because girls will like to look at the boys they like, and boys will like to learn about the men they want to be. I think it would be a big hit with the audience as this magazine is all about variety.

It fits in with a few of the UK tribes groups like 'Mainstream' and 'Rahs' because these people are similar to my audience that I am expecting because they have a similar taste in music by the looks of them, sterotyping again.

I think I would expect people to pay about £3.00 for this magazine so I can keep the demand high and income higher. It would be a monthly magazine because I believe people would look forward to it more, and go out of their way to get it if it only came out once a month. If it was weekly people might begrudge paying for it, and not be so interested.

The content inside it would be about rappers mainly and hip hop artists because I feel these are the artist's with the biggest popularity and not enough magazines seem to see that, and the hip hop and rap magazines are lacking so therefore, mine would be a big hit as it's the only one about. It would include some other artists that aren't rap or hip hop just to make sure there is a variety for people that aren't into that kind of music, and so the target audience can be widened further.

The style of my magazine will be quite neat and tidy, because the artists are rough and messy, so I will syntatically balance the style of the magazine and the artists to give it a good effect. It will be bold and stand out to people, and be obvious straight away as to what the target audience is judging by the colours and the model featured on the front cover.
