Final Designs 

The company i have chosen to go with is Bauer Media, they are a huge company with lots of successful magazines already produced and distributed, my magazine could possibly be up there competing with the likes of Q, and kerrang in a few years time thanks to Bauer Media. 

The magazine i have chosen to base my design around is Kerrang due to the age range of 16-24 year olds which i can relate to myself,. ........

Target Audience

Target Audience: 

My name is Luke Maguey, i'm 22 years old and i am a student at the JMU over in liverpool. 
I get my income (£3000) through my grants and loans but £500 of that is my disposable income, this helps pay for my hobbies such as football, playing the console and socialising down my local boozer, so music has a major part in my life i.e. when i play football, on the way to and from i listen to music, when im on the console i listen to background music and obviously after a few drinks i like to get up on the karaoke and make a fool of myself. Id say my type of music is punk/rock and/or metal so my typical bands are My chemical Romance and Green Day. 

My name is Paige Sampson im 19 years of age, im a mum living in a flat with my boyfriend and baby. I get my income through my boyfriend doing his construction, he earns £800 a month, and out of that we have £95 disposable income. I stay in the house and clean up all day and look after the baby, without music in my life it would be boring. I listen to music throughout the day
