Magazine Title Decision - Resonate

When deciding on my own personal magazine title I will need to research current names and titles of pre-existing magazines within the same genre as my own. I have chosen to create a media product in the genre of an indie/niche market, and a media product that will be free. In order to gain inspiration for my magazine title I looked at free magazines in this genre and their titles.

  • Clash
  • Loud and Quiet
  • Crack
  • Beat
In all of these titles a semantic link to noise is being made. This is a very common convention and one that appeals to me greatly. Other than 'Loud and Quiet' all of these titles are also very short and mainly consist o one word. This as a concept also appeals to me. I believe that by having a one word magazine title, it'll be alot easier to make an audience remember the name, in order to persuade them to pick it up in the future.

In order to stick to conventions of this genre I decided to also think of a title that came from a word with a semantic link of sound. As in alot of magazines I like, such as Loud and Quiet, the title is long, and therefore spreads across the top of the page. I am fond of this style and there fore have decided to use a word that is equally as long.

The title i have chosen for my magazine is: Resonate.
