1. Sci – Fi Universe (science
fiction)

2. The Purpose Of My Magazine
 The first purpose of my magazine is to promote Sci- Fi productions and encourage its popularity.
 The second purpose of my magazine is to show the progression of Movie technology through the
years and showcase sci- fi as a progressing genre.
 The last purpose of my magazine is to show the behind the scenes aspect of Sci –fi and to
promote a North London based production.

3. Form and Genre
 The Genre will be sci –fi (sci fi is one of the fastest growing genres with some of the latest hits being
from the genre).
 Sci- Fi is a fin and engaging genre which is broad and diverse.
 My magazine will be released once every month. One off copy's will sell for 3.99 pounds a month as a
one time buy or 3.50 for an annual subscription.
 There will also be a website with online copy's as well as trailers for upcoming sci –fi movies as well as
movies coming out of North London.

4. The Content
 Talking to actors
 New Sci –Fi movies in North London
 Technical aspects of Sci –Fi
 My USP will be showing behind the scenes and technical aspects of Sci –Fi which would differentiate me from
competitors.

5. Target Audience
 The target audience for my magazine are 14-18 year olds of any ethnic background from the UK. My magazine Is
targeted for that age as it is an intellectual magazine which requires interest and reading to an extent.
 My target audience ends at 18 as I believe when your 18 if your already interested in the industry you would be
studying some sort of film studies which are far more complex in detail than my magazine, as my magazine only
gives a small taster on the topic.

6. Distribution and marketing methods
 I will be giving out leaflets from a stall at north London based film conventions
and festivals. I will be doing this as my target demographic will be there and it is a
low cost form of advertising and will be very effective.

7. Article Ideas
 Behind the scenes (on set) – Attracts a more technically interested demographic.
 How Films are edited – Interesting subject for people who want to join the
industry.
 Upcoming Sci – Fi films in the north London area – As we are a north London
based magazine.

13. Body Copy
Font
The font is called Alive in
science Fiction.
I believe this is a suitable
font for the body copy as it
showcases an element of a
science theme however is
still easy to read and keeps
the text simple.

15. Why these colours?
 I will be using these colours as they contrast each over nicely giving the magazine
a futuristic feel.
 Furthermore the colours simplicity allows for a more minimalist design which
contributes to a more in depth sci- fi themed feeling.
