The house style of my magazine will be:

- A serif font for the masthead and some of the coverlines in the colour black

- Name of the artist in the same sans serif font as the masthead in the

colour red- The colour purple and a sans serif

font for the coverlines- Also in the colour white

The genre of my magazine is indie with elements of rock and common pop interspersed in it.

The target audience of my magazine is young adult males aged between 15-30 years old and in class ABC1. They enjoy browsing the internet, music, clothing, books, writing, television and film.

Some of the artists I will have in my music magazine are: My Chemical Romance, Blur, Panic! At the Disco, Fun. and Arctic Monkeys.

For my first issue my magazine will contain:

- An interview with a popular indie (and slightly pop) artist- “Is digital download dominating the music industry?” Article- An artists’ timeline of their music-
