Genre Research

I am doing an indie/unsigned magazine, It is quite a specific genre in that there are not many magazines out there like it. I chose this genre as i feel it is the genre i have the most knowledge about and i am intersted in the genre.

My magazine has to fit into the image of the target audience, for example the editors at Kerrang would use bright pink for their title and Vibe is not likely to have the Cheeky Girls on the front cover. Every magazine has to play to the their target audience and give them what they want or the magazine would not do well. Everything from the name, fonts you use and the colours you use. The music magazine that's most like the magazine i want to make is NME.
