Music Newspaper MoodBoard

The main target audience for my newspaper is going to be both young men and women. Specifically those who like pop music and are aged between 16-22. I will target my audience by having a number of graphical images to attract the audience on the front cover, including global stars from the music industry.  In order to achieve ensuring my magazine targets both males and females I will include features such as the colour schemes that appeal to both. I want to use colours that are stereotypical linked to males (blue) and then possible a more feminine colour such as yellow. I will include both male and females on my front cover to attract both whilst seeing my magazine in the shops. If it is dominated by just one sex then it can prevent a reader from purchasing, however if both females and males are presented on the cover it appeals to a wider audience. 

The reason why I chose to create this mood board this way was to remind myself of the genre of the magazine, it is a music pop magazine. This way whilst creating my 3 pieces I would be reminded that I could get ideas and inspiration from magazines that have previously interviewed pop stars and be made for the audience of pop fans. Through my research I was familiar with the magazines 'Pop'. This was where I gained my knowledge on what in usually included within a pop magazine, and also the type of interviews/questions that are also included within those types of magazines.
