Pitch

The genre of my magazine is going to be solely based on fashion, I'll have 4 pages that show my knowledge on the subject as well as a good use of photoshop which will be the main program that I will use to create my product. I want to produce a magazine that contrasts other fashion magazines however it must target the north east as it is a regional magazine that I will be producing. I will use the typical aspects that you see on magazines, such as the masthead and 3 main colours for the colour scheme, I will use certain text and images that I know will approach my target audience and immediately attract them to my magazine. 
              I would like my magazine to be based around vintage clothing, this will also show in the style of my magazine, therefore I will research into vintage colours and styles of text in order to create a layout and style that will fit in with my topic of magazine. The images shown in my magazine will be well thought photographs taken by me at different settings and locations that I believe will look interesting as well as fit in with the vintage theme that I have chosen. Researching into models and iconic celebrities from different eras and looking at photo shoots created of these people will be used as my inspiration, however I will still look into and research the modern style of today and show how similar some styles are when compared with different eras and how styles have been brought back. 
               Looking into magazines such as Vogue and Grazia, that show many different styles will inspire my ideas and help me decide on an interesting layout for my own magazine. I would like to create a product that appeals to my target audience and fits in with the regional title that it will have. I will focus on the north east throughout the magazine and text by showing popular clothing stores and other aspects of fashion that is known in the area, the vintage theme will fit in as I will show similarities and differences between the styles. In my opinion this will work well because it will be interesting and different to other magazines. Within my 4 pages there will be a front cover that will show a main image taken by me, the main image will then lead to a feature on that person, as well as a contents page that will give a brief description of what is in my magazine and what kind of things you are likely to find. 
           The images with my magazine will be fashion shots, I will plan out different styles and have a model or models wear the clothing that will fit in with my magazine. Photoshop will be the main program throughout the process of creating my magazine, I will use the document to edit images and also create my magazine, and because I have used this program before I know many techniques and I also know how to work the different tools and what would give the best results. 
            Overall, my magazine will show fashion in different ways and how it has changed and stayed the same when comparing it to different eras. I will use my own images that will include costumes and props to give a vintage effect, I will also look into different settings to make them look more professional and realistic to my magazine. The layout and style of my magazine will fit in with the vintage theme, I will make it unique however it will include the typical conventions that you would expect to see in a magazine. Also, my magazine will be based around the north east and show how fashion is in that area because it is a regional magazine, I will do this by looking into the clothing stores in the north east. Because it is a regional magazine I will be solely attracting that area and that type of person, it will mostly be young girls from the north east who will look at my product.
