Magazine Title

Magazine Titles

For the title of my own indie-styled music magazine, I have chosen 'Untouched'. This is because the title 'Untouched' implies that the content I have in my magazine is new and something no other magazine has written about yet. Which will make readers want to pick up the magazine because they will want to read new information for a change. It could also imply that the indie bands I will be featuring are unknown so this will also make people want to read the magazine because they will be interested in finding new music to listen to or maybe read about unknown bands for a change rather than big titles such as 'Kanye West' or 'Adele'. It also shows that the magazine is good at finding decent unknown bands if they are 'untouched' because it means other magazine or labels have not found them yet or written about them.

My Magazine Style

For my main piece, I have decided I will be designing a magazine cover for a indie music magazine. This is because I am a fan of indie music and feel that there aren't that many magazines out there for indie music. I also feel that going for this unique choice in music will allow me to be more unique with the cover design and maybe design it in a way that's different to how most magazine covers are laid out. I wanted to go for a more mature style such as NME and Rolling Stone as I didn't really like the feel of Kerrang!'s loud teenage rebellion. So I have gone for indie music because this is a genre mostly listened to by young adults and adults. I will be using a mellow colour scheme and a plain looking yet eye-catching font. I will choose a magazine title that is unique in its own way and also relates to both the music genre and the readers.
