Company Name.

When in the creation of my magazine, my company name will be 'Voice'. When i was choosing my company name i wanted something which was similar to music, i picked out quite a few words, but i decided to go with 'Voice' because it was relevant to the artist and the music company.

Draft Article (Interview)

Interview: Alice S6x

Discovered at the club ‘Open Mics’, Alice S6x has recently released her first album, which as sold over 1,000,000 copies in its first week, and still growing. Alice has become so successful we just had to get an interview with this music star.

Q- Hello Alice S6x, tell me where did the inspiration for your name come from?

A-    Alice came from the book ‘Alice in Wonderland’; it shows the naturalistic side of life and people, so it really shows the fantasy of everything. S6x just sounded cool with Alice, so there your answer. Also S6x was my postcode when I was growing up, so it means something to me (personal)

Q- Interesting, I must say. Also where did the inspiration for the name of you   album come from?

A-Androgyny came from a lot of different things, but mostly coming from blurring the male and female lines. Represents the weirdness of afraid in being yourself and different to other people. It shows and tells people that they shouldn’t be afraid of who they actually want to be, just do it and you can accomplish anything, it’s the albums hidden meaning.

Q- Another interesting fact, I must say though, it’s unusual?

A-I don’t believe it’s unusual because its part of my reality, my reality is your fantasy; the truth is…I loathe reality.

Q-How was life growing up, did any memories have any inspirations to your album?

A-Life growing up was tough, I got bullied for being different. I was called lots and lots of names, some of which I don’t like to repeat). I believe the hurtful memories were my inspiration; I put my feelings down on paper, and to show I’m not afraid of being different and no one else should be!

Q-How does it feel to be in the spotlight and have so many people want to be you?

A-It feels really good, knowing I’ve been bullied all my life, and now people love me, it just shows that I’ve done something positive in my life. I love the reaction I get from people it makes me really happy that people understand the meaning of my songs. I’ve always wanted to perform with Lady G’, because she as the same view points as me on life and individuality, but, to be honest, I don’t think of myself as a superstar, not yet anyway, I still have a long way to go before I reach that status.

Q- Bet you’re very proud of yourself?

A-Yes, my parents are really proud of me, there glad I stood up for myself. So am I! I’m also proud of the stage I’ve created for my upcoming tour, I designed it all by myself. In my tour there’s going to be a lot of costumes changes, the lighting will also be over the top. I’ve recently worked with a lot of people like ‘Guopei’ to produce the costumes for my show as well as working with ‘Versace’ and ‘McQueen’ for my upcoming spread in Vogue, shot by renowned photographer ‘Nick Knight’.

Initial ideas:

My inital idea is to create a new music magazine, promoting a new artist and their new album. I will be keeping to the genre of Indie, and to the original codes and conventions of typical Indie music magazine  (Example: NME)

Props, make-up, setting etc.

At the moment i don't really need any props, but my model (Emily Mason) must have to wear one object which is red. Make-up might be essential, but i won't go over the top with the amount. The setting i'm trying to achieve is a white/black plain brick wall, this would help in editing.

Equipment:

In the creation of my photoshoot i shall need a digital camera (to take the pictures with). I may need a tripod, but at the moment it doesn't seem likely that i shall need one.

Photoshoot: Model

For the creation of my magazine, i will need to have a photoshoot taken.

The name of my model is: Emily Mason

My proposal:

My proposal is to create a new music magazine, promoting a new artist. It will include an interview, where he discusses his music career and promote his new album. It will include a new photoshoot (which is exclusive). It will also include advertisments and posters for concerts, keeping to its typical conventions and codes.
