TARGET AUDIENCE AND GENRE
The target audience of this magazine tends to be
both males and females interested in rock music of
an age of 12-20. This can be seen by the chaotic
design and bright colours designed to attract the
eye of the teenager. The genre is rock which can be
seen by the cracked masthead and, again, the
general chaos across the page
MAIN IMAGE
The main image of Ozzy Osbourne is very
prominent and takes up most of the page to attract
people to the main article. He is also addressing the
audience directly further luring the target
audience. His attire is quite dark and gothic further
providing people with the impression that this is a
rock magazine. Also, his pose is quite threatening
and menacing, something usually seen in metal
groups like that of Ozzy’s own group, Black Sabbath
MODEL CREDIT
The model credit is large and bright to attract the
eye of the audience and is also placed next to the
main image to allow the audience to determine
that this is the main story they are promoting. The
title is in all caps which make the magazine seem
loud, like it is being shouted. There is also the use
of an exclamation mark which, again, shows the
writing to be loud and is the symbol of the mag
