‘The Mix’By Kiran Reyatt and Amy Dinsey

Who are the target audience for your magazine? 16-24 year olds Interested in new music of a variety of genres Influenced by chart music Enjoy live music Mix of genders

How does music fit into their lives? They listen to the radio often Socialise at gigs Watch music channels Download podcasts Keep updated on the music industry through iTunes,

We7, YouTube etc. Use iPods/Mp3 players often Buy informative materials such as magazines and

newspapers with features relating to music

How will your magazine address their needs? Cover a mix of genre’s which we think would appeal

to the target audience (16-24) Cover big news stories about music artists in these

genres Instant recognisable colour scheme and logo which

represents both genders Regular features such as charts, gig guides and

competitions etc. to keep the magazine interesting and new

Reviews of live shows as well as albums are regular features

How will your magazine stand out from others? Most music magazines only have one genre of music

(rock/alternative), whereas ours will cover a variety attracting a wider audience

We will have more features on artists that are new to the industry, that we think are going to be big

Have an exciting competition every week Will be cheaper than other magazines such as

Kerrang and NME.
