RWD Magazine





One of the things that i really like about this magazine is the layout it has been laid out in a different way to other magazines it makes it interesting to look at and read it also attracts attention as they use a lot of special effects using programs such as adobe Photoshop to create sell lines and the masthead.

What kind of stories will your audience expect?

- Stories to keep them updated on the latest gossip
- Stories mostly involving artists who make it global from the streets of London
- Talking about youth and crime, trying to cut it down

What is your slogan?

"The Truth is the key to grime"

How often will it come out?

It will come out twice a month. Start of the month
and towards the end.

How much is your magazine going to be?

My magazine will not be that expensive it will cost about £4.99 this is
mostly because the audience is teens and knowing teens we don't really want to pay to much for something,however as it only comes out twice a month £4.99 is a reasonable price for the quality of this magazine.

Do you have any other ways of attracting your audience?

My main way to attract youths is by giving them a little something with the magazine this can be a poster or a free mixtape. This will also help the artists if the youths like what they hear they will go and buy the mixtape
