2. I tried to make sure that my all my pages
represented different types of social groups that
would be reading my magazine. To do this I would
have to make sure that it also appealed to them.
Even though the main target audience for my
magazine was teenage girls I also had to include
certain things within it that would appeal to other
social groups. This was mainly done through the
use of color images and the sell lines. I had to
make sure each page was consistent for this,
meaning that on every page I had to keep all those
social groups I was appealing to interested
throughout.
3. FRONT COVER
When trying to represent different
social groups the front cover is
always the most important as is
what the reader sees first and it
initially was what attracted them
to pick it up. This is why I decided
to use the colors pink, yellow and
blue as they can appeal to both
boys and girls and they also look
good together. I also wanted my
sell lines to appeal to the different
social groups, as my main social
group was teenage girls I decided
that my main image would be of a
female ‘pop artist’. But for my
other images I used a variety of
both males and females, so that I
could create a variety of sell lines
to appeal to more than just
4. CONTENTS PAGE
Because the contents page is a full run
down o what the whole magazine has
inside I is important to make it look as
jam packed as possible. This was done
like most contents pages, by putting it
into categorised columns. By doing
this it allows people to see which area
they will be most interested in and
what will appeal to them. I tried to
describe each page in quite a simple
way this is because my target
audience is teenagers meaning they
wont want to spend ages looking for
something or reading the contents. As
I’ve seen on many other contents
pages there isn’t usually a lot of
different colours, this is because it
makes it look too busy and can get
confusing when reading it.
5. DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD
When deciding how I was going to
present my images on the page I
had to make sure that it looked fun
and exciting. I wanted to make sure
it still appealed to the teenagers
who would be reading it so I thought
by doing a collage it would make it
different and fun. As I was doing
this page in a Christmas theme I
decided to go all out with the props
and make each image different. I
think that a magazine aimed at a
older audience wouldn’t of used the
collage idea when presenting the
images, it is something you would
associate with a younger audience
which is why I used it to make it
current. Then on the opposite page
was my article. Whilst writing it I had
to make sure I wrote it in a way that
would appeal to teenagers and
