BLOG 4 - Magazine Proposal - 25 points (due Sunday midnight)
Write a proposal for a new magazine (either a print magazine or an online magazine), as if you were going to submit it to a publisher. Your proposal should include:
· Name of magazine
· Concept – how is your magazine different from existing magazines?
· Readers – demographics and psychographics (may include age group, gender, ethnicity, income level, interests, self-image, self-identification, etc.)
· Other magazines serving this demographic (your competition) – your investors will want to know how your magazine is different or better?
· Five advertisers who you think would like to reach your readers
· Five articles you might include in your premier issue
· Describe the cover of your premier issue (photo, graphics, color, words, etc.)
· Draw (or create electronically) your proposed cover, including the name of the magazine and highlighting top articles, and post it on your blog and/or bring it to class. Stick figures are OK. Here's a template to create a cover electronically.
I will give prizes for the best magazine proposal (most original and feasible) and for the most artistic.
Due Thursday May 5 at midnight: The Internet Search Project. Turn it in at TurnItIn.com.
