The brief, inital ideas and feelings

In this post I will be sharing with you the brief, initial ideas and my feeling on the new project, a music magazine. What I have been asked to create is a front cover, contents page and double spread page of a music magazine that will feature an artist I have created, for a music genre of my choice. At first I was exited to be starting my coursework as I enjoy listening to music in my free time. It means that I am able to show my interest creatively and with my own twist. But also I was a bit nerved as it meant that I had a lot of work to complete in a short about of time but as long as I keep track and on top of my tasks, I think I will be just fine. When it comes to the actually genre of music, I was thinking of either doing pop, R&B or film music as they are the three genres music I listen to the most. I choose to not go with film music as even though I love it, its is too generic and has a larger target audience than I want. Therefore I will decided between the other two. With my target audience, I think I will go for the ages 13 to 19 as they are a suitable range for the magazine I have in mind. For the layout and design side, I am still unsure of what I am looking to create but hopefully with the research I am going to start to do, I will be inspired.
