Exploited Fate “We are excellence”

Exploited Fate (Dante and Nelly)

Exploited Fate (has dropped by and has been talking to our two interviewers (Theodore and Ashley). They will give us a clearer insight of their new glamorous lives as two new fresh artists combined into a group. We have exclusively invited them into our new pad which has been under development for 3 years now.

Ashley: “Hello, we have the excellent Exploited Fate duo here today with us and we have the privilege to be speaking to them today despite their busy schedule.”
Dante: “Thank you for that warm welcome Sarah, we too are humbled to be here”
Theodore: “Enough with the chit chat, let’s get straight down to business. First of all how on earth did you come up with the name Exploited Fate?”
Dante: “Couldn't be an easier question for us. My favorite word is exploited”
Nelly: “My favorite word is Fate; so we decided to bring it together to make ‘Exploited Fate’. I remember we started saying it loads of times and it just seemed right. It fitted.”
Ashley: “Did you ever know you were destined for stardom”
Nelly: “We never knew we would get this far. I mean we wanted to make a duo and get started in making music. We were making T-shirts and we were thinking about what clothes we should we wear. We actually never did the practical thing. We
Never got down to enhancing our voices”
Dante: “After we got all the production things sorted out meaning how would people hear about us. We started to develop our voices so producers and our record label could have faith in us.”
Nelly: “We were relieved to hear that our voices were heard and given the thumbs up. After that shortly we started performing at concerts and started getting paid as we rightly should.”
Ashley: “Alright boys I have been itching to ask my next question. Who is your inspiration, is there anyone who you idolise to get to the place you are?”
Nelly: “Yeah definitely we love Daft Punk, we totally idolize them. They are a huge duo and they have achieved so much! Every time I hear about them or I watch their music videos I just block everything around me and concentrate about them.”
Dante: “Yeah there are some big names up there who I idolize but Daft Punk is the one who I would say motivates me the most to become who I am today.”
Theodore: “Whoa that was deep”
Dante: “I know right”
Ashley: “Alright let’s move onto the next question, what are Exploited Fate listening to right now:
Dante: “Right now I have Lil Wayne on my phone. I also have some Bruno Mars, Pharrell, and Eminem and Bring me the horizon. All of these mainstream artists are right now doing excellent in the music industry. Their families must be so proud”
Dante: “Unlike Theo I listen to more bands such as: Little Comets, Imagine Dragons, Zulu Winter, The black keys and The sunshine underground.”
Dante: “Yeah can I add to that point that in our duo we have lots of diversity, We listen to all genres between us and we try and put a funky beat to our lyrics and hope everyone can get up and dance to our music. That’s Exploited fate aim”
Ashley: “For those who hasn't seen you in a live performance what can they expect from you”
Dante: “Well for those lots who haven’t seen us in concert I can assure you that you can expect lots of energy from us and a really positive vibe.”
Nelly: “We’re not that type of artists who just stand still and just sing. We like to move about and we like to jump about. I guess it just makes us comfortable, makes the stage we are performing feel similar to home”
Ashley: “Okay boys what would you describe your style as. Dante you first please seeing as you’re the older twin.”
Theodore: “Cool and calm. I’m one of those really nice guys who people who want to come up to and have a friendly chat. I love talking to our fans, seeing how they are doing and what they are up to”
Dante: That’s really boring Theo. On the other hand I am more of a ladies man. The majority of fans who I talk to are girls. I mean if you are famous you would have to exploit it. Right?”
Theodore: “Very correct” You guys have already been nominated for different awards for the next VMA’s which take place next Saturday. The awards are best new band and best new artists. How do you feel when you first realized you been nominated for this prestigious award?
Nelly: “Well sometimes I can’t even describe how I feel about this. I’m really proud of both of us and how far we have gotten”
Dante: “I am immensely proud of us. Against some of the world’s most exciting talented young artist. It is an honor and we are rightly humbled”
Ashley: “Well I hope you two win it. Exploited Fate deserves to”
Nelly: “To be honest I don’t think we would win it this year. It is too soon for use, we have only just burst out into the music scene recently. The competition is really strong.”
Theodore: “Okay let’s away from the music scene a bit. Do you two have any obsessions?”
Nelly: “Food. I really love food; I can’t get enough of it. You can’t live without it. The funny thing is people are how do I have a body like mine and still be able to eat vast amounts of food. Well let me tell you guys that working out frequently is the way forward. In depth every single Tuesday I work out. I practically live in the gym on Tuesdays.
Ashley: “Well Dante I guess everyone sitting this room can probably guess what you’re thinking of right now”
Theodore: “Dante?”
Dante: “Girls, girls and girls”

Planning My Artist


My artist/band that is going to be on my front page is called Exploited Fate is an upcoming band that is flourishing inside the music business. They both were twins and was born in Holland to Dutch parents who later moved to the USA to have a better living opportunity for their twins. They were first was seen as songwriters and later progress to singing their songs live at parties. By 17 years old they both were was seen as an official music artist singing with a record label that was keen to release her songs. Exploited Fate are very two strong willed people. They take great pride with their accomplishments and they are extremely modest. If they do break into the 100 Billboard the fame go to their head.

Focus Group

This is my focus group that consist of three I have interviewed. I have asked all the every single person in my focus group various ways upon how they can assist me delivering the a fantastic magazine to the public. From viewing my video you can straight away observe that the genre that I should be promoting is Rap and RnB. David had made a very excellent fact that the two genres are arguably the two most listened and downloaded types of music that teenagers listen to. As a result I have to deliver a great magazine with RnB and Hip Hop as it roots. Craig also made an excellent idea regrading how often my magazine should be released. If the demand is high I should deliver it weekly and maybe possibly charge a high price. If the demand is low and people do not pay enough for it I should release it monthly and not waste resources such as: trees to make the paper. The price, genre and how often my magazine comes out is incredible factors I should consider before releasing it.

Mood Board

The camera shots of these magazines covers are all focusing on the main artists. Every single of the artists are looking directly at the camera giving the camera their full concentration. Most of the camera shots in the magazines are medium shots to show what the characters are doing.

Most of these magazines the artists on here have many flashy, cool and trendy costumes. The Daft Punk magazine especially highlights this as very much of the costumes are flamboyant eg: sparkling helmets, shiny suits. In the other magazine 2 Chainz is wearing two chains which is very slick. Another approach is casual dressing as shown in the Imagine Dragons.

The font styles in this magazine are very easy to acknowledge as they are in bubble writing and bold. Furthermore, they are coloured which makes it stand out from the background. Two of the magazine has special fonts ‘COMPLEX’ ‘SUBSTREAM’. These fonts are fancy to attract viewers and it is no problem for the audience to read what the title says.

The colour schemes of these magazines are very bright and colourful except ‘FREQUENCY.’ This magazine has a dark background and the artist 2 Chainz has a serious expression. The other magazines are spontaneous and flamboyant which will have a positive effect on the audience when looking to buy a magazine.


All of these magazines have puffs to dictate what types of articles are going to be inside the magazine. For example ‘talk style with T.I’. The topic of fashion trends will be inside the magazine. Another example could be ‘Avril Lavigne’ shows that this magazine is also going to be referring to her.
