Evaluation Question 3
I think ipc would distribute my magazine, rhythm and boom, because they currently do not have an r and b magazine. And it would be a great addition to the 90 brands they have at the moment. Also by selling rhythm and boom it will allow the magazine to reach the 26 million people they have at the moment. Ipc media currently only have 2 music magazines nme and uncut so they have space for an r and b magazine so magazine would fit right into ipc.
IPC Media is the UK's leading consumer magazine publisher with approximately 90 brands and selling 350 million magazines every year.
IPC Media produces over 60 iconic media brands, with print alone reaching almost two thirds of UK women and 42% of UK men – almost 26 million UK adults – while our websites collectively reach over 20 million users every month.

Feedback
Well done Hiten, you are up to date with most of the research and planning work. Please look into your focus group audio file as it doesn't appear to be working.

Front Cover Sketch 2
This the second idea for my front page, its more of a free relaxed theme of my front cover which is simple but effective and eye catching. The masthead style would also be different the font and layout of it wouldn't be the same. This is just a backup idea at the moment during my planning process. The masthead is positioned differently to my first sketch, i did this to keep variety in my ideas, also this sketch has less images and information.
Double Page Sketch
Contents Sketch
This is one idea of my contents page, i want to make it a busy layout which is very effective, i want to use allot of images which will make my contents page standout, i want to use the colours of blue and white which will continue from my front page, so my brand identity continues throughout my magazine, so when people pick up my magazine they straight away know its for Rhythm and Boom. Many of my ideas have come from looking at other successful and effective contents pages.
Main Cover Sketch
This is the main idea that i want to use for my front page, i am going to be using a big main which stands out, a cover line of the artist with additional sell lines which will attract more readers, and for my masthead i am going to make it look big and sophisticated in a shade of blue which attract males and females, my main image is going to be of a women. My front cover is going to positioned over a white background. I will make tweaks to my design throughout my design process, this is just a general idea and overview of a plan which i will follow
