Analysis

Magazine Proposal Analysis

TCM stands for Teenage college magazine this is because it is aimed at teenagers that attend the college. The reason i have chosen my magazine to be released monthly because it means it gathers all the information from the month and puts it in one magazine. It also means that there will be more important information in it from the previous month. I will use a green colour because it is a neutral colour for males and females so it will be aimed towards all the students in the college and not just a set gender.

The price of the magazine is set on the price that it would be cost to make the magazine but also affordable for a college student. This is because we want students to buy the magazine and not have to pay to much to have it because they will not buy it if it costs to much to buy.

I Chose to have a section about films because most people enjoys watching films and it isn’t just for one gender. I chose to have a TV topic because nearly everyone watches TV and it keeps them up to date with all the new series and reviews on new programmes. I chose music because most teenagers listen to music on their iPods and at home so new albums coming out and some upcoming artists/bands may be something they would be interested in knowing about. The next section is a games that is more targeted towards males because it is mostly a male audience that plays games. I chose to have games because it is something that attracts to a male audience and has information on new games and what is coming out soon. The next section is sports which is also targeted towards a both male and female audience. The reason i chose to have sports was because it is something male and females like but it depends on what type of sports that is written about. I chose to do Gadgets because it is something people like to know about the latest gadgets useful gadgets they could use in college to help them. The next section I chose to include in the magazine is fashion because it is something for the female audience because it has latest releases and it is something the female audience can read rather than having a male dominated magazine. I chose to have a section on celebrities because it is another topic mostly women like to read about.

This is a midshot landscape picture that i am going to use for my magazine cover. This is uneditited. I chose to use this because it is the right format and it is portrait. It has a nice space to have text for the magazine.
