2. Who would be the audience for your media
product?
3. o target young adults of both genders aged between 14 and 1
4. I am sticking with this initial idea as I feel my
magazine fulfils the needs of this audience.
5. Front cover
I feel that my front cover is focused
on targeting my chosen audience.
This is because the magazine
appears slightly informal and relaxed
portraying my target audiences
attitude. My chosen colour scheme
not only represents the genre; but
also represents the age of my target
audience as they are young and full
of life like the bright colours I have
used. It is not uniform and doesn't
not use a boring colour scheme such
as white and black which is more
associated with magazines for the
older generation. Moreover, it
represents both genders as the
colour scheme is gender neutral and
the coverlines are not girly gossip.
6. Contents PageAgain my contents page suits
my target audience. The layout
is informal and quirky whom I
feel my target audience are like-
relaxed and quirky. The actual
text is also informal and
contains humour which reflects
my target audiences
personality. Furthermore my
colour scheme is gender neutral
and so represents the target
audience as being both male
and female. The images
connote the rock genre whilst
some of the articles promote
the pop genre and therefore it
satisfies my chosen genre and
target audience.
7. Double Page SpreadMy double page spread appeals more to those who like the rock genre rather
than pop and this is purely because the band I interviewed were a rock band.
However, it still satisfies both genders as even though the dark colours would
appeal more to a male, the fact that the main image is of a female singer will
appeal to the females. The article is informal and has a storyline format which
makes it more suitable for young adults but also contains humour to mirror
the tone set from the contents page.
