Sub Genre Research

This is a video i have put together on the site Animoto to show a brief presentation on the various sub genres of Rock music, which i may be interested to include in my magazine. (Apologies for the speed of the video, i was unable to edit the timing of each of the frames unless i upgraded and paid a certain amount of money for it. Therefore, pausing the video in order to read the text may be necessary.)

The four sub genres i have chosen are Pop-Punk, Punk-Rock, Alternative Rock and Indie Rock. These are all relevant to my music magazine because when gathering information for my reader profile, i discovered that the majority of my audience enjoy these sub genres, as their favourite band falls within them. For example, the joint most popular band was Blink 182, and Blink 182 is a punk-rock band. Other popular bands from my target audience include Kaiser Chiefs (Indie Rock), Nirvana (Alt Rock) and Man Overboard (Pop Punk). By including these genres within my magazine, i am broadening my target audience, by appealing to more fans within the category of Rock Music.
