Introduction

After analysing college magazine front covers i am now looking at conventions of Music Magazines. Our main task is to create a front cover, a contents page and a double page spread of the inside. I will start by analysing at leat two Music Magazine covers to ensure i know the convetions. I will then make notes on the contents pages and a few of the pages inside, to have an idea of what the inside and contents should be like. The presentation of my work will be published on Blogger and the main document i will use for my work will be Microsoft Publisher. As usual at the end of the topic i will create an evaluation.

There are currently many different genres of music magazines such as;

-Rock

-Punk

-Indie

-Pop

-Classical

-Jazz/Blues

-Dance/RnB

-Country

-Soul and Reggae

Here is an example of a Classical music magazine;

Here is an example of Dance/RnB;

I will base my own magazine on one of these genres and will research the Language, Insitutions, Ideology, Audience and Representation for the genre i choose. It is important that i research these concepts in order for my magazine to look professional.
