Classic Pop magazine is a British music magazine which is issued monthly and was founded in October 2012. Its founder and editors are Steve Harnell and Ian Peel. Anthem Publishings are the publishing company of the magazine. The content is based from 5 key decades in music. These are the 1970s, the 1980s, the 1990s, the 2000s and the 2010s. The magazine has featured artists such as David Bowie, Michael Jackson and Duran Duran.
The magazines target audience are teenage girls due to the feature of the colour pink and most of the artists featured are male. The male artists are wearing trendy pop costumes which draws in a younger audience. This is part of Green's Gaze Theory which says that artists are dressed to attract the opposite sex.
The use of the colour blue could attract a male audience however the magazine is predominately pink. The brand identity of the magazine is red and black with white writing. The writing is a serif font with the use of kerning and bold fonts.The magazine adheres to conventions because it includes a bar code and institutional detail on the front cover. It also adheres to conventions because it is fun and vibrant.
The advert could appear on the back of the magazine. This means that it will be glossy and well presented. It could also go near a DPS which is great to advertise our artist. I feel this magazine is a good choice because it targets the age of our target audience and it also targets a female audience and is a pop magazine. Our chosen genre.
