Case Studies

The second task of this project was Case Studies. For this, we had to get two music magazines and analyse the front cover, the contents page, and a double page spread of each. We also had to look at the press packs and find out information about the audience and publisher of the magazines. At this stage of the project it was a good idea to know what genre of music you wanted your magazine to be, so that you could analyse existing magazines of that genre. However, as I wanted to do a CCM magazine, I have analysed Q and NME as more mainstream magazines that would appeal to my target audience age-wise, and have also analysed two CCM magazines in less detail, Worship Musician and Christian Musician, to learn the conventions of Christian magazines. However, the audiences of these magazines are older than the audience for my magazine would be, therefore they are less likely to affect the decisions that I make for my Main Task.
