Mood Board- Colours analysis


Mood board- colours analysis
For the colours of my magazine I either want to go bright or dark with a pop of colour I have made some examples that I have put on my mood board accompanied by the inspiration that I have behind them. I really want to have something fun without making it too girly; I think that this will attract people towards it and away from other dull boring music magazines.  Also think that this would represent the type of content that will be inside my magazine. I think that any of the examples that I have put on my mood would look really good on a music magazine and really stand out.

Mood Board- Target Audience Analysis


Mood board- target audience analysis
The target audience age range that I am going for, for my magazine is 16-25 year old that are into urban-mainstream music such as Azealia Banks, ROCKY A$AP, Frank Ocean and Lana Del Rey. My magazine would appeal to both male and female but more prominently females. The kind of people who read my magazine would like to dress in brands such as Urban Outfitters, The Ragged Priest, Wildfox Couture and Commes Des Fuckdown as these are all urban street wear brands I think that both these brands are very on trend and this is the kind of target audience that I am going for a very ~fashionable~ type of audience. I want my magazine to be affordable to people of the age range but also not too cheap because I would like for the people to buy the magazine to have a genuine interest on the kind of thing that is being written about inside the magazine and a regular buyer not just something that they buy just because it is cheap. I want my target audience to the similar to that of wonderland magazine I think that this is a really good magazine that I have taken some inspiration from.

Mood Board- Fonts Analysis


Mood board 2- fonts’ analysis
For my fonts mood board I have gone for a theme if old school American font I think that these are all classic fonts because most of the music in my magazine will be American and I really like the vibe that they give off, I think that they will help attract my target audience of school/collage/university type age which is what I am going for. I really like the fact that all of the fonts that I have chosen for my mood board are monochrome because I and to have really bright images on the front covers of my magazines so I think that this will balance it out also black and white font will go with whatever id on the front cover and all of the images within the magazine. I think that all of these fonts that I have on my mood board are very bold and would be really good on a magazine front over because they stand out and make the title clear. I think that if these font were on the front of another more established music magazine if one issue you happened to have a plain colourless cover then if you made the font of the title of the magazine then it would look really good in these fonts still and you would still be able to identify which magazine it is from the bold font.

Mood Board Analysis- Advertisers


Mood board 1-   advertisers
I have chosen these brands because I think that they represent the target audience that I am trying to attract to my magazine I think that if someone bought my magazine, these are the type of things that they would be willing to buy in real life. One of the brands that I have chosen is Urban Outfitters; this is a clothing shop that I think my target audience would shop in as they sell an arrangement of different urban clothes, new and also vintage therefore they would be a good advertiser for my music magazine. I have also chosen Kopparberg to go on my mood board because I think that this is one of the brands the people who read my magazine would drink. I think that TV programmes such as fresh meat would be a good advertisement because I think the people who read my magazine would be older teens and that is the kind of humour that is in this programme. I think that my magazine would appeal to both male and female genders but more so to girls so I have put down the brad ESSIE who sell nail polish because everyone knows all girls love to have their nails done!  On my advertisers mood board I also have more than one apple product, this is because whether have loads of money or not you are still going to be begging your parents for the latest iphone to impress your friends with and parents love to see their children happy so this is why I think that these products would apply to the audience.
