Research and Planning

To create my own music magazine, I first had to analyse and research different magazines from various genres to get an idea of what conventions are followed.

Questionnaire

I made the questionnaire to find out what my target audience liked to see in a magazine.

Reports

 The idea of the reports was to see the overall view of magazine conventions/layouts to see if they have been followed or broken.

Report #1 - “My Findings on the page design of music magazines.”

Report #2 - “My findings on representations within music magazines.”

Preliminary task

As part of my preliminary task, I was asked to construct the college magazine - I had no skills in using Photoshop. Moreover, I had little knowledge of magazine conventions.
