Proposal
- 1. Proposal Name of magazine: RISE The genre of my magazine will be Rock. I will be doing the rock genre as it intrigues a specific percentage of the audience. The audience will appreciate this rock magazine as they will see that I am trying to attend all of their needs. The magazine will do its best to attend the audience’s entertainment needs as it will be much easier for me to target a specific target audience as they will all have similar needs to each other. I will be able to provide a lot of resources and images that will entertain the audience as the rock genre is mass and unique. Target Audience Age- 20+ Gender- The gender that I will be targeting for this magazine will be males. The reason for this is because the feedback that I got said that the majority of the audience who would read the magazine would be males. Not many females are interested in the rough background of Rock. Predominantly males are more interested in Rock then females as they like the culture and background of rock artists. Males are much easier for me to target as my audience, as I can even use a female model on the front of the magazine which would draw in the male audience attention. Ethnicity- The ethnic group that would read this rock magazine would be mainly white people. This is because white people are mostly featured in rock music magazines and the majority of rock artists are white males. In my magazine I will try to use many white people as in most cases white males are used in rock magazines quite frequently and that is what draws in the audience’s attention. Also, many people say that rock music generally stands out to the white ethnic group as mostly white rock artists featured in the rock magazines. I wouldn’t want to subvert the usual stereotype as it can impact my first ever magazine hugely.
- 2. Lifestyle – The lifestyle that the audience of my rock magazine would live are: having fun living life, outgoing, very confident, love going gigs/ concerts, love listening to music most of the time. Also, my audience would be a C1 lower middle social class. This is because they will have more of a free time to actual listen to rock music and attend rock festivals and gigs. Their outgoing personalities couldn’t ever get them an upper class job. They like to be free and not to be ruled by anyone. The kinds of jobs that my audience will do are: plumber, working at a small office, customer assistant, etc. This will make me price my magazine at a much lower pricing as my target audience has to be able to afford it.
