2. My colour scheme consists of bring/ vibrant
colours, which attracts the attention of
people passing by, and also attracts the
attention of the younger audiences (which is
who my magazine is aimed at)
My magazine is made up of mainly different
shades of blue (mostly using electric blue as its
more eye catching) and also shades of orange,
I chose to use this as my accent colour as it is
on the opposite side of the colour wheel and
therefore contrasts with all the blue on my
magazine, it also brings the whole magazine
together and looks very professional as the
colour scheme looks planned and tailored to
attract the most amount of attention it could
get by being visibly appealing. I kept this
colour scheme on my contents page .

3. My model was a teenage girl (which is the age I am aiming my
magazine at) and therefore they can relate to the magazine and
maybe want to read more, This was also the case on my contents
page and my article, I used the same model each time to keep it
consistent.
Images used?
4. I tried to not use a lot of slang or swear words because I didn’t want
my magazine to somehow be taken less seriously, and the way my
model was dressed would have contradicted the idea slightly as she is
in a ice dress which would suggest that she is from the upper class
and they are not often associated with using bad language.
I did however appeal to my audience through my use of language
another way, I did this by using words that my target audience would
be very familiar with that maybe older audiences wouldn’t be that
interested in, such as when I talked about a “twitter takeover” on my
cover, which teenagers would be interested in (statistically 81% of
teenagers are on some sort of social media) I also talked on my cover
about tips on how to get “HIM” to like you, which is something that
maybe teenagers would be interested in that maybe an older
audience wouldn’t be in as I used words like “crush” which an adult
wouldn’t necessarily be interested in.
I also on the cover of my magazine used celebrities that are the target
to audiences just like mine. (the sticker on the front cover advertising
the change to win Justin Beiber tickets) and other artists such as
Taylor Swift etc.
Language used?
