I designed my Magazine pitch to try and receive as much audience participation as possible so as to try and increase the feedback from the class. I used parts of my pitch to help me do this effectively. The parts of the pitch I used to help me do this was the names of my magazine.
For this I took a poll in my class of which names sounded best for my magazine and I had a strong results. The class voted for their favourite and the one which received the highest approval was AMM or Alternative Music Magazine. I took Alternative Music Magazine and I Incorporated this into the name. I took the Alternative Music Magazine (AMM) and changed it to Alternative Indie Magazine so that it spells AIM. I feel this is a change to make a name that my class liked, better.
I was apprehensive about announcing my three colour palette to my class as I didn't know how well it would be taken. I knew I as keen on it as I thought that Orange, Black and white complemented each other well but I was cautious about how the class would feel. When I did reach this part in my pitch the class liked my three colour palette and I received helpful comments. One comment was that it would appeal to the slightly older readers of the magazine, another was that it helps tie my magazine down to the slightly strange music genre; this is what I was hoping to do.
Lastly I received feedback on my targeted audience. I was told that aiming to incorporate new listeners of alternative music whilst hoping to attract an older generation of listeners; incorporating those from teenage to late twenties was striking to high and was unrealistic. I therefore decided to change target audience age to that roughly of my own age, this being 16 but still trying to reach those of early twenties. I am now hoping my magazine will appeal to the age range of 16-24. This is a much smaller gap than I had before.
