My Chosen Genre

music genre by laurb123 on GoAnimate


I have come to the decision of my chosen genre, which is pop/R&B, due to being a fan of this particular genre myself so I have a fair amount of knowledge surrounding this already. I buy a lot of magazines within the pop and R&B genre which is an advantage of me doing this for my own magazine design as I am familiar with ones already on the market and have many idea from a large variety of them. I have picked up on the typical conventions used within this genre which will help me with my own work as  can include them to make a successful magazine. As well as this I have narrow down the style I would like to reflect in my own work due to influences of the magazines I have read.
This particular music genre is published throughout the charts in particular, meaning it is one of the most recognised choice of genre reaching out to a large audience. Due to this the artist are very popular, and with this and the fact I am a fan of this genre, I have a very established idea of the look and style that the typical artists have in the pop and R&B industry – which will help me when it comes to props and costume and also casting for my shoot.

Casting is another reason pop/R&B is my chosen genre as I have a number of people in mind who would fit the role of my main artist to star on the cover and double page spread. And as it is important for my magazine to be realistic its necessary I choose someone with the typical artists look.
