Introduction - The Music Industry (Brief)

Hello, my name is Lois Douglas and on this blog I will be meeting my brief given which includes creating a music magazine front cover, a contents page and a double page spread. In my previous lessons my teacher, Miss Mottram showed the class different blogs from past media students. We looked at how they explored different music genres in order to meet their brief. Influences from themediamash.blogspot.co.uk shall be evident on this blog. My aim for meeting my brief is to create an indie pop magazine as I am very interested in those two genres. To be honest, before 2012 I was not that interested in the indie genre until I consistently listened to the band Coldplay which influenced me into downloading their entire album off of iTunes and after seeing them live at the Summertime Ball in 2012 made me even more of a fan of the indie genre. This blog will follow my journey into creating a indie pop music magazine front cover, contents page and a double page spread. I hope that you enjoy this journey because it shall be interesting.

- Enjoy J
