Purpose of Magazines The purpose of magazines is two fold: To Entertain To Inform Magazines continue to appear on the market and sell in huge numbers. Why? The tactile and visual nature of the medium differs from every other medium. They are portable and easy to access. Although the internet has had an impact on the mag market, much of what features in magazines is exclusive to the issue.

The industry Magazines exist to make money. An average magazine consists of 45% advertising with some fashion magazines exceeding 70%. Money is generated from the cover price of course but the primary revenue is generated by advertising. This is called ‘dual revenue stream’.

Music magazines Starter Task : Brainstorm titles of music magazines.

Genre of Magazines Magazines can be classified according to their content, their target audience and their frequency of publication (monthly, weekly). What genres of magazines can you name?

Music mags- genre conventions Task: What are the generic conventions of music magazines? What are they likely to contain? Front cover with featured artist Tend to be genre specific Interviews Latest news Reviews of albums, singles and live concerts Contents page Advertising specific to the genre

The Magazine Form Whatever the genre and target audience most magazines conform to a set of formal conventions. Have a discernible front cover with main image and masthead etc. Have a contents page. Include adverts. Feature articles.
