liiar anaylysis of the brief

Language
In my music magazine i will need photo's what represent and reflect the music genre i have selected. These photos will need to leave enough room around the side to then add text. The text should be Colourful and keep a house style so it looks professional. My magazine will need a recognisable masthead what will be bold so every time people see this they will know what magazine its from. Sometimes a slogan makes the magazine more successful because it is another way of remembering the magazine,it gives a ring to it. It needs to include headline story's what tie in with the photo's on the cover and the music genre,headlines also make the front cover look less boring. Including a indent will give my magazine a identification,like a logo for example what could be used in every edition.The music magazine will need a bar code because it will not be free,and people will want to know the price. On the double page spread i will need to include the Byline which is the name of the writer and if i include photos i will need a Caption under them,which is a headline under the photo saying what it is. The layout on the contents page and double paged spread will need to be set out nicely so its easy to read. The colours red and black are quite bold and will grab peoples attention so this could be used as a house style. Bright and bold colours are associated with alternative music. Close ups or low angle shots will be a good idea of what camera angles the photos i will take will be shot in,A close up will show emotion in the artist's face and a low angle will make them look powerful and higher up in society.


Institution
The Institution will be Bauer media. It is Europe's largest publishing magazine group. It offers a worldwide media empire producing over 300 magazine in fifteen countries. It also publishes online and TV and radio stations. Bauer media is based in the UK and is based on magazines and radio. It owns magazines like Kerrang,mojo,Q and empire. It also owns 30+ more magazines not just music related. The institution employs 6,4000 people a year and has a turnover of 2.08 billion Euros.


 Ideology
The beliefs and values of this music magazine will have to be about music and how somebody can go from nothing to a big alternative star,if they believe in themselves they will get somewhere. It could influence new star's in the making to go for there dream,because that's how all alternative bands start out with a goal to be successful.  I want to send out the message that individuality is okay and you can like whatever music you want.

Audience
The audience of my magazine will be teenagers from 14-30 who generally listen to alternative music. Because alternative music is not that popular the age range wouldn't be as wide because more people seem to listen to pop music. The SEG would be C1-E because it is not a popular music genre and people in the SEG c1-A Tend to listen to more popular/classical music. The gender will be female and male but the primary gender will be male because there are more male bands in alternative music,and the secondary audience will be females,because there are not as many female bands,but the males could attract the female audience.

representation
The magazine will represent musical artist's in the genre alternative,it will represent celebrity/artists in a positive way. It will represent females and males not to be bias towards the other sex. it will represent stereotypical alternative music artists.
