NME Music magazine case study!


I am looking at 'NME' magazine for inspiration for my music magazine so I am going to do a case study on it.

NME stands for New Musical Express. It's published weekly since 1952. 

It was first published on a normal tabloid newsprint.

NME created the first singles chart.

The also helped spread Punk Rock to world

NME covers things like Festivals, exciting brand new music, tips and advice to new bands from industry experts.

It's most recent editor is Krissi Murison she is the first female editor for NME.

  1. do a bit of research to see how NME has changed its cover style - impportant to show how it tries to increase readership as it is in crisis

    find from the advertising info what NME and Froots say their audiences are

    getting inspiration for acts is fine - but you must put togetther an act who could fit in amongst them and photograph them

    you need an evaulation of school mag apges - is ther a house tyle across the 2 pages?
    does it communicate the values you wnat?
    what changes to font, image, page layourt would you make if you had to do it agian?
