Magazine Rationale

My magazine is called Jukebox, I chose this name because it is music based and when you hear it you instantly think of music. The genre of my magazine is mixed, there will be pop, rock, and indie. This is a connotation of my magazine masthead because Jukeboxes play many different types of genres and artists. I have been able to gather many different images of artists for my magazine, at the stadium of light in 2010 I was able to take photographs of P!nk, Kings of Leon and Robbie Williams as they performed in their separate tours. Also, in September 2012 I went to see the band Lawson and managed to take many pictures. As well as pictures of artists, I created my own music star - James Vice, I used my brother as a model to create an artist for my double page spread, and I have also taken pictures of a friend that has madonna inspired make-up on, this image will be used as a make-up feature. All of these images will appear on my magazine in some way, either on my front cover, contents page or double page spread or even just mentioned as I don't want my pages to become too crammed. My magazine is targeted towards teenagers/young adults, this is the primary audience, the age range will be 16 to mid 20's. My magazine will appeal to both male and female as the artists that I will be using are liked by both genders. The secondary audience will be people who like music and the artists they see on my magazine, this will appeal to them if they see their favourite singer or band on the front cover or contents page.
