Editor's Notes

• #5: Complaints to do with what the magazine covers as some don’t take ‘take that’ to be a rock band and don’t agreee with the awards they give to people such as Neil Gallagher
• #6: I have choosen to use nme and q magazine because they both focus on the same sort of music and also use techniques to meet a specific age group. Where as NME uses my age group of 15-25 , Q is also helpful because it is a leading rock magazine that has a well known status and presents its magazine and information over a wide range of ways such as charts , radio and through their website.
• #7: This article allows first time readers an insight into generation x , it also allows fans to discover history or a band they like.Information about influences means the audience can at least relate and have some idea about generation x.Basic knowledge on rock is taken for granted so it reaching to the main audience that read it every mouth however a new audience can be excited and influenced to read it because not much background knowledge has to be known. The whole idea of this article appeals to an older age group because it is of an old band however the ‘where are they now’ sections lets an old audience as well as a new one discover what theses artists are doing at the moment, therefore they are updated on whats happening ‘NOW’ , which stereotypically would interest both audiences.
• #8: Swears openly showing it would target an audience over the age of 15 , it shows how powerful this quote is and how shocking but typical.Comparisons made thought-out to express how things were seen and to meet the needs of all readers and to show in different ways so the Audience understand the concept of what they mean. This piece of text is a summary and expression of the band and an introduction to the article. ‘the file’ is a short and understandable summary of who the article is about so relates to new readers to see who this person is and helps old fans gain more informtion.
• #9: All aspects of this magazine appeal to older readers because of the details and background that it includes. However it is written formally therefore appeals to a universal audience because anyone is able to understand it.
• #10: Title is prominent to the article and magazine.The leading text introduces the article and gives the writer credit.The drop cap is common and just makes it look better as it gives it structure.The pull quote highlights and summaries what the article represents and instantly expresses the difficulties the band had. The badge relates to the nature of the rock magazine with the grunge writing inside.The small photo sums up and shows the band.The caption describes the picture and shows what it represents
• #11: Natural eyeflow : top right to bottem left.
• #12: The grunge font highlights important text such as headings and subheadings. Using a sans serif font for the article makes it seem realistic and easy to read , it also does not distract you from main headlines , pull quotes and images.
• #13: This photo highlights the rock and power he had and also symbolizes how destructive the relationship became.
• #16: Nme is helping a new and upcoming ‘on the rise’ band make their way into the punk rock and indie music world.The use of fun colours and because they are a young band fits into the typical audence they address 15-25
• #17: The language used appeals to a younger audience and shows an exciting new band through expression of sexual antics and gossip that’s going round about the band.
• #18: This tone would relate to young people as it is childish and expressing how the band are. The ‘need to know’ sections is a quick and easy piece of text that allows readers to scan and have more light reading. The side bar also relates to the main article because the same tone and similar bands are presented on this page. Overall I think there is excitement because this DPS is all about new artists and what is popular at the moment.
• #19: This font makes everything clear , it is used in most magazines for DPS therefore it looks very clear and realistic. The heavy fonts used highlight important parts of the article.
• #20: Title is prominent to the article and magazine.The drop cap is common and just makes it look better as it gives it structure.The pull quote highlights and summaries how the band are and what sort of article it is. The small photo sums up and shows the band in action. The caption describes the picture and shows what it represents.The side bar shows other bands like them
• #21: Natural eyeflow : top right to bottem left.
• #22: Long shot is an iconic boy band picture in a common cool setting. The medium shot show the band in actionShots of different bands relates to readers who might not like the main band , and helps them when scanning for the right information.
• #23: The colours used are plain and simple. They are contrasting therefore the important things are highlighted more.
• #25: From these DPS’s I will use things such as ‘fact files’ and Anchors to help aline and construct a right eye flow and appearance of my DPS. Using things like ‘nme loves’ to interact and give the magazine its own identity is important as it allows the reader to take advise from a good magazine.
