Initial ideas

I have chosen to make the price around £2.35 as my music magazine will be published on glossy paper so the readers will get what they pay for. Music magazines are also around that price so i am basing my price on the typical cost of a normal magazine. Also people wouldn't begrudge paying this price if it is only once a month.

I have chosen to do a monthly magazine, so the content isn't repeated as much, as more happens in a month than individual weeks. There can also be themed months, for example, a Halloween special in October.

I am making my magazine informal as my target audience is aimed towards younger people, this way they will be able to relate to the magazine more, as the majority of it will be written in colloquisms or slang words.

I have chosen these colours as initial ideas for my music magazine as they are bright and eye-catching to the readers. The colours I have chosen to put together also compliment each other and will make the magazine stand out even more.

I think i will choose 'CXS' for the masthead of my music magazine as it is short and catching. It also looks appealing to the readers as i will make the masthead join together.
