Magazine production

-       My genre of music that I will use for my magazine will be rock, the reason for this is because I have more knowledge of this genre of music and have experience through reading Kerrang.

-       Throughout the years Rock music has been massive with a large fan base, with such bands ACDC, Motorhead and Black Sabbath making their mark on history. Therefore I wish to create my magazine on well-known and popular music base.

-       Kerrang is a current magazine being published in this genre

-       Also the music channel Kerrang is linked with this where they show all the music shown in this genre.

-       Kerrang Radio is also accessible through the radio and the website

-       People represented in this genre are an age range of around 14 – 20 as they include concert information and also festivals, this shows that the older generation must be an audience.  The very outgoing and people who can relate to the music and lyrics and have a common stereotype known as a ‘emo’.

Bauer is the producer for kerrang, with a big reputation for producing big-labelled magazines such as; Empire, ZOO and FHM.
With this high credibility also connects to the audience so they know that the magazine is high quality and it is worth purchasing. 

-       Kerrang Magazine cost me £3.20, this is a reasonable amount for the magazine as it is produced weekly so it will hold a lot of information and other additions, such as posters and quiz’s.

- Kerrang magazine is published weekly and out every Wednesday, keeping to this day for publication and selling, allows it to evolve around the buyers lifestyle and routine to ensure they know when to get it and how to get it.

- Averagely Kerrang has about 60 pages. This is because it is a weekly magazine therefore needs to hold the weeks information and ensure that they are getting there moneys worth.

- Kerrang magazine is aimed at male and females aged around fourteen to eighteen. The reason for this is because the information and imagery used portrays the older teenage generation and shows information on up coming rock concerts which usually only allow people of the age of fourteen and over.
