Original Ideas Statement


Original Ideas Statement

My magazine is alternative and punk music; it has an attitude to mirror the consumer. Here are my ideas for my product so far:

Working titles: Undone, Dirt, Rinsed, Black Milk, Vessel.
Target Audience (demographic and psychographic): Predominantly males aged 16-23 with an interest in brand new underground music and frequently attending gigs, interested in some social issues such as drug use, most likely to live in cities as closer to venues etc., my product will appeal to the subcultures of student life.
Price: £2.00
Released: Weekly
Content: Reviews – album and live, interviews, gig guides, advertisements. Heavy focus on NEW music.
Style: Counter-culture but still conforming to magazine conventions, sans serif font, effective use of colour and photography.
USP: New music that’s easily accessible.
Position in the market: A small publisher has meant my magazine is not as mainstream as NME, however this could benefit as it retaliates against NME’s opinions and has its own – my consumers will realize this and buy it.

Making my magazine cost £2 would keep funds up so that continued production is realistic.
