My intentions are to create a magazine in one of the rock genres (this will become specific in planning when I elaborate on my idea), through my research on existing magazines, I felt that the first double spread, 'Kerrang!' had the perfect layout and colour scheme (which seemed to be a convention for rock magazines of its type and it struck me as rock when I saw the spread, which means it could be somewhat stereotypical) for my idea to follow (wild side of rock; quite passionate, serious feel and with a 'dark' feeling colour scheme at the same time).
Through this layout convention I feel my idea will follow such layout by having a similar colour scheme to the Kerrang double spread giving it a dark and serious edge, as well as having pictures of people with what can be considered 'weird' hairstyles and a casual attire, therefore, my idea would be following rock conventions in a sense.
Through my Target Audience research (the questionnaire) I have been able to gain more generic, but essential information such as price and contents page layout, this will help me when planning the layouts and designing the pieces themselves.
