Regional Magazine

• In my magazine I am going to abide by the main conventions of a regional magazine in terms of house style and format of the

front cover• I am going to use the rule of thirds and

include six cover lines and two smaller images

• The main image is going to be a picturesque nature image - the destination

of this I need to decide

Contents

white background

informative contents information

simplistic style with black font

neat columns to add to sophisticated style

I will include about three images

Double Page Spread• The double page spread will have a white

background• the font will be black to create contrast and

continue the house style• the article will be a review of a new opening

restaurant, or local shop• there will be multiple images that relate to

the magazine article (3 or 4)• the article will use sophisticated language and be long - this will attract the hedgehog

readers

Billboard Posterthe house style will continue onto the poster which will create a better brand identity and appeal to those looking at it

the poster must be colourful and eye catching which means that an image of nature and countryside must be used.

the poster must include important information including price, date, issue number.

The information cover lines must appeal to the audience around them, for example, the poster wont get much attention if it is in Poundland because more affluent people will be shopping at Sainsbury’s or Tescos, a more likely place to put it.

there will be no smaller images as this will clutter the poster and is unconventional

Radio Advert• I will split the radio advert into four or five sections, these will follow the conventions of a radio advert - it must be informative and concise but still create a sophisticated style

that will attract the right audience• I will use a female speaker, aged about 45 - this will directly relate to my target audience

• the background music will be sophisticated and reflect the tastes in music and attract

them• the advert will be on peak times in the morning and at various points throughout

weekdays, it will be on less at weekends as women will be spending time with family and

friends.
