I also explain what my primary and secondary target audiences for my magazine will be, and how I will make the decision of what content and housestyle to use.

Music magazine article analysis

Hi guys! The last feature of a music magazine that I have analysed are two different double page articles. This will prepare me for when I create my own double page article.

Music magazine content analysis

Hi guys! As well as analysing front covers I also decided to analyse two contents pages so that I know what the standard layout is.

Music magazine cover analysis.

Hi guys! Before I could create my music magazine, I decided to analyse two different music magazine covers. This gives me an idea of what I could put on the cover on my music magazine and the type of house style I could possibly have.

NME Readership Profile

Hi guys! After already analysing the Q readership profile, I decided to also analyse the NME readership profile. This shows statistics and information that advertisers may find interesting and make them want to advertise their magazine.

Target A

To achieve my target my research, planning and evaluation must be detailed, effectively communicated and presented digitally, using a wide variety of formats. I need detailed research into similar products and target audience and to show the process of planning by including excellent work on shotlists, drafts, storyboards, scripts, locations and props. I need to show full evidence of the research and
planning informing the construction process. My
evaluation must reflect my excellent understanding of forms and conventions, an understanding of the use of new media throughout the stages of production, the way my ancillary and primary tasks combine effectively. There will be an
excellent understanding of the significance of audience feedback. My production work, across the formats, will demonstrates excellent creativity and imagination as I seek to make them as convincing as possible and it will also
reflect my mastery in technical skills such as controlled use of the camera, attention to framing, variety of shot sizes, close attention to mise-en-scène, appropriate transitions and use of sound.
