The Treatment
The Magazine: WAM (We are music)
Target Readership: My magazine is very much concentrated on the genres of indie and rock. Target ages for my magazine are people in their late teens/early 20’s (16-22). Particularly at this age and in this genre people are willing to listen and learn about new music and “WAM” will provide them with this knowledge. Because my magazine is aimed towards people of the younger generation the price attached will be cheaper than other magazines in this category. This is because many people of this age either are paid: pocket money, minimum wage or are struggling to pay off student debts. Therefore “WAM” will be priced at £1-50.
Form and Style: “Wam” is an A4 magazine fully coloured featuring a variety of interviews, new singles/albums, full gig reports and news on the biggest stars: past, present and future. At "WAM" we believe that you deserve to hear the rising talent in rock and indie with all of which they have to offer. Because the magazine is aimed towards the younger generation language will be mainly informal with modern terms and the use of slang vocabularly.
Themes and Typical features: "WAM" will feature many: interviews, gig reviews, news, opinion polls and photo's. Much of what we do is topical to an everchanging music industry with a wide range of opinions covering all the topics we include. In every issue there will be an exclusive interview with one of the biggest stars at this present time, other interviws may also be included regarding new singles or album releases. We will often include a weekly link to our website whereby people can vote for our chosen poll of the week, all polls will be included in that weeks edition of "WAM". Every week we will run down the top 2o singles of the week, we also do the same for albums monthly. All the news from the world of indie and rock will be covered in depth detail as we know fans want to be kept up to date with all new news.
Potential advertisers: Because our magazine is targeted towards a more youthful audience much of the advertising seen inside will reflect this. For example there will be adverts concerning: games, fashion, Tv shows and of course music. Featured advertising guests include: EA Games, Ubisoft, Infinity Ward, Top Man, Burtons, Top Shop, Skins, Shameless and all the up an coming gig listings that will interest you. All these are particularly linked to the youthful culture which is why we add them to our magazine.
Editorial Team: The first thing to know about the editorial team is that they all live for music and show great passion for it, most of whom have been involved on the music scene since a young age. The team is mixed genre with most aged in the mid 20's, i feel the more youthful age is important because it means that
