MAGAZINE GENRES PT2

 

Welcome back!

Besides special, general and professional interest magazines there are other more known genres of magazines. Today I’m going to talk about six of them and how a writer can use one genre and break it done into different topics. 

     Let’s say you are writing a magazine about cooking. Well this is a very versatile topic as it can be molded into different things. One can talk about what chefs are wearing on the job to make their cooking easier. They can talk about the ingredients and recipes. The different utensils used. Now for a sports magazine they can also talk about various things. For example, what teams are most popular or rising in fame. They can also talk about specific players and their life. They can talk about the different sportswear and brands they use. So within this sub topics there are even more topics that can be talked about. With a genre you can never run out of things to talk about which is what makes magazines so popular and entertaining. 

     Fashion magazines are well known for anyone who has ever even looked at a magazine. Fashion magazines can talk about different modeling shows.  One can talk about models and then what they like to wear. It can talk about how fashion has changed over the years
. They can also talk about specific fashion designers and their work. Now for health magazines there’s many research’s happening around the world and they want to inform people about this. They can talk about different diseases. Or even talk about different professionals who have helped evolve the world of medicine. They can talk about how to get into different medical professions. And also healthy habits one can implement in their life. The possibilities are endless, just one word can trigger a world full of knowledge and magazines bring that to use in just a few pages. 

     Entertainment magazines can also have lots of things that can interest large audiences’. For example, they can talk about then latest trends on different social medias. Different things happening around singers or actors. They can also talk about different activities that readers can do either at home or outside. They also talk about different places to go. Also include didn’t books that can expand the knowledge. A may even include different movies or songs that the public might want to look into. And lastly let’s talk about news magazines. News is all around so there’s no mistake in not finding something worth peoples time. They can talk about what’s happening in other countries. Different news surrounding the environment and how that impacts us. Can also inform readers on information that they might have not known before. 

I think having different genres really inform or just entertain readers. Having different things to talk about makes us human and reading those same kind of ideas makes us relate more to magazines.
