My magazine targets a hip hop audience. The model on the cover is dressed in designer clothing and accessories that are commonly associated with hip hop culture, such as cornrow hairstyles and flashy jewelry. Throughout the magazine, the fonts have an underground, urban style that will attract readers visually with their bright colors and ability to stand out. The language used is formal to ensure all readers can understand the content without needing to know acronyms or informal terms.
3. MODEL’S CLOTHING AND
APPEARANCE
My model is dressed in designer clothing which relates to hip hop, as most hip
hop celebrities/ artist wear designer clothing's. His hair style is a cornrow hair
style, that is common within the black ethnicity and most hip hop rappers tend
to have cornrow, therefore my model relates to hip hop. He is also wearing
accessories and jewellery on him, this is very common with the hip hop genre
as is it the flashing bling that draws the attention of teenagers and young
adults, and they will look at the image of my model and fantasize how they
will have a jewellery like that some day.
Even on my contents page, my model’s there are also wearing designer
clothing's and flashy jewellery which is what hip hop lover expect to see in any
hip hop content that they will want to purchase.
4. FONT
The fonts I used in my magazine tend to have a underground urban look to it,
which I think will attract my audience to the magazine. I have used at least 5
fonts within my magazine, and they all tend to stand out, and I have used very
bright and appealing colours to help make the fonts stand out to the
audience.
My masthead font is big and bold, and I think it is unique compare to some
masthead would see on other real magazines. I have also use the clipping
feature to clip to image of the American flag to type the word dreams.
5. LANGUAGE
Through my music magazine, I have only use formal
language in my headings, cover-lines and the article on the
double page spread. I chose not to use any informal
language because I wanted the audience to understand
what is written in the magazine, as some readers may not
understand what some acronyms may mean and will
struggle to read the magazine.
