Research and planning Feedback on 22/02/16

I have asked a friend to give me some feedback on the current state of the magazine, and he told me that my double page spread needs some more things on so I shall add more as I also feel the same, he also said he like's the main image of my cover which I feel is a good feature also.

Research and planning: 22/02/16 Updates

In todays lessons I changed the layout of the text in my double page spread and I also changed some of the fonts, this helps me and I have a few more adjustments to this and then this will be done.

Research and planning: Publication plan - Regular/featured content

Publication plan
What is your regular and featured content?
In my magazine I will have both regular contents such as interviews and articles on stars and featured comments like some information that is exclusive to when the magazine comes out so it will vary.

Research and planning: Publication plan - style/layout/colour

Publication plan
What is you style/layout/colour?
I have picked a certain way to lay out my idea and that is to keep to the same colours throughout which are red, white and black. I have picked these colours because they are a bit dark and indie is like a dark thing when you see what bands where and stuff so I stuck with this theme and throughout stuck to the idea of using these colours, so this is my style and layout was very same through out also as I had made sure there was the name on each page with the mast heads and I used the same 3/4 fonts through out so this is my style/layout/colour.

Research and planning: Publication plan - Rationale

Publication plan
What is the point in your magazine?
The point in my magazine is to tell all fans of indie about all of the latest information in the indie world such as news, or informing them about gigs or tour dates or interviews with their favourite musicians so it varies, but the main purpose is to update all indie fans about everything new in indie.

Research and planning: Publication plan - Distribution

Publication plan
How will you distribute your music magazine?
I will distribute tin toe forms as an online copying from retail such as corner shops that way it is accessible to everyone and anyone can purchase from anywhere as there is many off licences and almost everyone has a computer to access online so this will be my distribution

Research and planning: Publication plan - Position

Publication plan
Where will you position your magazine in the market?
I will position it as a middle class magazine because normally the fans of indie or maybe 20-30 year old males so they will be working so on the basis it is a middle class music to meet the target audience.

Research and planning: Publication plan - Price

Publication plan
What is the price of your magazine?
The price of my magazine is £3.00. I went with this price because it seemed a reasonable price to pay swell as my survey agreeing with me as it is not cheap because it is a bit more of a professional magazine so I wanted a professional price but it is fair at the same time so that is why this is my price.

Research and planning: Publication plan - Name

Publication Plan
What is the name?
The name I went with is IN. I picked this name because, I wanted a shot name like Q just use the one letter so I wanted something like this and I decided to go with IN because it is short and I felt like it suited the indie nature because it starts with the two same letters so this is why I went with this name.
