Who would be the audience for your media product?
The genre for my music magazine was Pop Rock, by having this as my genre the target audience is a lot wider as people who may not enjoy all rock may enjoy pop rock as it is a completely different style of music. However Pop Rock would still attract people who listen to 'heavier' rock.
When designing a music magazine, you always need to be thinking about the target audience and what will lure them into buying the magazine, as selling the magazine is the most important part. For example, the colour scheme of your magazine has to represent the genre of music you chose. Most heavy rock magazines would be very dark, however as my magazine is Pop Rock I have aspects of dark colouring but also have some brighter colours to highlight the pop side of the genre.
As you can see the border and masthead are black but the colours surrounding it are very bright colours, this representing the two sides of the genre.
