The codes and conventions of this is to use dark blacks and greys with contrasting brighter colours, such as bright pinks and reds, creating a disruptive yet vivid effect. This will relate to the punk-ish nature of the audience that I intend to gather
Since rock magazines, like the one i intend to make, tend to follow the career more than the personal life of a band, I would have to say that my magazine will also try to focus on a bands career over their personal life although it will not go un-mentioned.
The magazine should have a slight border, almost chaotic with an apocalyptic theme. These borders will represent the dangerous and rugged style of the magazine.
My primary audience is Gothic teenagers of both genders, although a slight increase on females. A profile on them has been made, showing how they interact and what they look for in magazines. My secondary audience is the teenagers (18-21) that perhaps would rather be relaxing and reading a magazine for that reason rather than to gather information.
The artists that feature should be known to the primary audience who would often go to local gigs and perhaps meet up with these people but to the secondary audience I am hoping that they will be a new face, and so the article will be for informative reasons rather than social, although it will contain a bit of both. The key to my magazine however is that the articles are kept short in order for readers to find the content light, new and interesting.
