Creating a piktochart has allowed me to understand the competition involved within the magazine industry and how this helps producers to create their products. By researching magazines which involve my genre of music has showed how each magazine is ‘the same but different’ and what regulary appears on Indie magazines. I have focused on who they interview, what features are included, what is available to the audience, how the readers interact with artists and editors which has then allowed me to understand what I will need to include in my magazine in order to reach my targeted audience. This task has shown me how Indie magazines inform, entertain, connect to the audiences personal identity and how they socially interact helping me to have a better understanding of the competition and how to make my magazine stand out from others.
