Magazine Research And Planning



Research the following:
  • Research the genre-conventions of the magazines within your chosen genre
  • Examples of existing titles within the genre
  • Analyse a cover, contents page and double page spread from an existing title within your genre
  • Colour palettes-five examples of colour palettes you may use. Add examples from your genre.
  • Fonts-five examples of the type of font you may use. Add examples from your genre.
  • Language register (A/A*)
  • Moodboard-create at least one for the ideas that have inspired you.
  • Audience research (UK Tribes)-which tribe would buy your magazine? They are the tribe/ target audience you are aiming your magazine at.
  • Use SurveyMonkey to create a Questionnaire aimed at your audience. Ask at least 5 people to answer it.
  • Create audience profiles for a male and a female audience member.
  • Analyse the media institution that will publish your magazine
