Mind Map 
Mast head names 
-ROCK forever : it will make the readers feel 
confident about them liking the Rock genre. 
-HAIL : connotes the importance of the rock genre, 
feeling of expectation of high quality content. 
-We will ROCK you : familiar as it is the name of a 
famous rock music that almost everyone 
My own 
Magazine 
knows. 
Colour Schemes and 
Brand Identity 
-Purple colour for representing honesty 
and loyalty to the information provided? 
Combined with Black and white for 
contrast and standing out from the 
crowd? (Purple music magazine not that 
common). 
-Font style should be bold, non-serif to 
connote friendliness and open-ness? 
-Brand Identity identified by colour 
schemes and photo effects: 
-Photo’s looking vintage / not very high 
technology to relate to older target 
audiences? 
Main Image / Cover line 
images 
-The Main Image: This should be perhaps 
someone with a Rock musical instrument 
so that it is clear that it is a music 
magazine, and it is of a Rock genre. The 
model should be a male, as males tend to 
read Rock magazines more than woman. 
-Clothing should be quite ruff / classic, 
such as a Leather Jacket, sunglasses and 
jeans? Other can include: suits, shirts with 
skull on it etc. Long hair to be 
stereotypical? 
-The Cover Line Images: these could be 
starts posing, or performing music. 
Promoting other big named bands. 
Target Audiences 
Those aged between late 
teens up to 40 - later. Articles 
about old bands will appear 
so they should be able to 
relate and be entertained 
(Katz). As with the younger 
audiences, there are people 
who likes old rock music as 
much too, or music students 
etc. 
Main Headline Ideas 
-Something about a new 80‘s style 
artist: The golden times are back! With 
a new taste..’ etc? 
-Name of a new classic rock style artist 
‘Anthony Rixon on the Move!’ Etc. 
-promoting a new album: ‘The ultimate 
album Finally released!’ -using 
exaggerated words. 
Prices 
Less than £1, 
but no more 
than £2? (£1.80 
etc).
