Article research and

planning

A good article is vital when creating a magazine, it must be interesting and informative. This will encourage the audience to continue to buy the product as they recognise that the magazine can be trusted to provide strong and entertaining articles about their favourite artists.

The article I will use on my double page spread will hold some truth however it will be commercialised to increase interest. I shall write the article about my friend, who is also the model featuring on the page. They article will be in the style of an interview and I have decided to include a ‘baby story’, as this always appeals to the audience. I will ask questions about the recent band split and rumours of him going it alone.

Jordan has been the front man of critically acclaimed ‘union fall’ for over ten years. Until we heard those dreaded words… So what went wrong? Why did they decide to split? We at MFT were lucky enough to ask Jordan ourselves. So Jordan when did you decide that union fall should be no more? Well as much as we’ve all enjoyed our time together it had been a long time coming. I think we all just missed our families. Ten years of writing recording and touring is understandably tough, how old were you all when union fall took flight? I would have been about 14 I guess. We all met in secondary school so we were all around the same age. At first it was exciting and what we had always wanted. Well its every kids dream to ne a rock star isn't it? I just don't really think any of us were really prepared for how tough it is being away for so long. There have been all sorts of telling us you have a new edition to the family on the way too? Yeah it is true. My fiancé is due next summer. That was another reason for me to quit. I just cant put in the time anymore. I need to take some time away to raise my kid.. Congratulations, any baby names? I've always wanted something nerdy like Frodo or something but my missus wont go for that ill just leave it up to her, she wears the trousers. I think we can al relate there. So are we to expect anything more from you or is this is? I don’t want to reveal too much, but I do plan to do some solo work. The last few years I've needed to spread my wings just to see how well I can fly on my own, so this wont be the last you see of me.
