2. MUSIC MAGAZINE
The Music magazine that I chose to make was a grime magazine.
I decided to do a Grime magazine because I feel I no allot about
Grime and I also have a lot of friends in the Grime scene at the
moment so if I needed any input I could get some easily.
I also chose to do Grime because there are currently no grime
magazines in the market so I am trying to get my magazine
established and if my magazine is the only one in the market people
who want to buy a grime magazine will have to buy my one as there
will be no others.

10. TARGET AUDIENCE
The target audience for my magazine are 14-20 year olds.
I feel this is a good target audience because younger kids will not
understand some of the words or punch lines used by some of the
artists.
Dont get me wrong younger kids do still listen to grime swell as
the older ones but I feel this is the audience I should be
portraying my magazine to.
My magazine will be for 14 year olds as wellas it does not contain
any swear words or anything bad that parents would be angry
about.
I decided to attract my audience with the artists names I used and
the colour which makes it bright
11. CODES AND CONVENTIONS
In my research I found out that most of the hip hop magazines
follow a colour scheme of red black and white.
Some choose too add a few other colours like green and brown
.
I also found out that most of them used a mid shot image with the
person making eye contact with the audience, some of them attract
different genders as if its a female they make her look sexy which
would attract the male audience.
The mise en scene also plays a important role with the clothes they
are wearing or in some cases the background.

14. PHOTOSHOP AND INDESIGN
In the last task this was a big problem for me as I was not used to
the software's so I needed a lot of help.
I still needed help in this task but no were near as much and it
shows with how much I have improved.
I can now crop photos and import them in to indesign a lot easier
and I can make my images look better.
It helps because you can do your work a lot quicker and make it
look better without wasting time.
