p1 - Proposal


P1 - Proposal Unit 3 Magazine

Format: Magazine

I am going to produce a new Football magazine about modern day unprofessional football in the form of a Front Cover and DPS (Double Page Spread)
Purpose:   This magazine will be aim to inform and educate and entertain because I plan to include informative articles and football match reviews. Modern day football is a widely talked about subject amongst football fans, therefore this magazine will provide information and some entertainment all about it.
Genre:  This magazine’s genre will be sports. I plan to produce this magazine based on football and several football elements such as locations of the football games and the professional levels of games.

Content:
My magazine will include pictures, information, analysis, interviews and match reviews. The magazine’s body copy will include some information about the English Premier League, as this will make the magazine more popular due to the popularity of the league. I will also include some analysis and details of 5-a-side football including a debate on how the Football Association are dealing with upcoming talents. In an article, I will intend to persuade readers to participate in 5-a-side football by including a match analysis of an important 5-a-side league game at my local football centre. 
Style or Approach:
The house style will include bold and vibrant colours and fonts as they have a greater impact when inserted onto a dark background. I plan to use the colour pink throughout the magazine as it is a colour of the official Premier League’s colour scheme and it is a bright colour, which stands out very clearly. To create these pages, I am going to use Adobe Photoshop to construct the magazines front cover and double page spread as it is a reliable go-to software for designing things such as magazine covers. Photoshop has tools that will be beneficial in constructing the magazine cover as it has the ability to cut out the background of images of Footballers so the image is just the player itself.
Audience:

  • Any aged Football fans but mainly aimed for younger adults and teens (14-30) in general. The aimed gender of this magazine is Mostly for males but there are still Female fans so it will be suitable for both genders. The targeted gender will be Male though because football is a big part of most males lives as it is a very popular sport for males to play or watch

Length:
The magazine will be size A4 as this size is not too big so it is handy to carry around. It will contain 4 pages including the front and back cover
Frequency:
There will be weekly editions and a monthly edition at the end of each month. The weekly editions there will be analysis of the past weekend’s games in the Premier League whereas the monthly edition will contain a review of the months Premier League games and all competitions such as player of the month and goal of the month from all the football games that took place that month. Each weeks magazine will cost £1.99 whereas the monthly editions will cost £3.99


















































Possible photo ideas for the magazine:

Large long scenic shot:
For this shot, I plan to use a wide angled lens by using a tripod to create a clear landscape photo of a football pitch with players playing on it. A possible location for this would be my local football centre, which has 5/7 aside games daily. This would also have a large appeal to the Liverpool based audience, as this location is local to the target audience. It will also appeal to those who play 5/7 aside football but are not local.
Long exposure shot – An image of a footballer stepping up for a penalty, silhouetted by light with a background of darkness would be effective, as the dark background would help highlight the penalty taker. This also means the text around the image would stand out if I used light colours.
