My target audience of my media product was students
and teachers within my school. The technique that I used
to appeal to my audience is that I used a layout that had a
sophisticated and young adult look. Also I used
appropriate content that the teachers will be able to
understand the students may find it helpful in the future.
I used different types of font formy text as one of my features of my magazine. I did
this because I thought it w ould be easier for my target audience to tell the different
type of text apart. For example I typed the quotes in ArialRounded MT Bold and I
typed the paragraphs in Corble.
I used an appropriate colour scheme that is unisex and matches w ith the colour of
the schoollogos. I did this because I w anted to appealto both adult and students. I
didn’t w ant the colour scheme to look too formal because the students may not
read it and I didn’t w ant it to look too childish because then the teachers might not
read it.
I chose a wide shot
image because I
wanted to show the
whole building and I
wanted to show my
target audience that
the building is really
big.
I chose a close up
image ofthe sixth
form entrance
because Iwanted
to get a clear view
of the Plumstead
Manor logo .
I chose a pointof
view shot
because Ithought
it would appeal
more to students
because they
would be able to
visualise whatit
will be like going
into sixth form
building.
One of the thing I would improve for this
magazine cover is the colour of the
background.Instead I will pick a colour that
can be link back to the school.For example
next time I will pick a red background
because the colour can be link back to the
colours ofthe school logos.
Another thing I would improve
for this magazine cover is that
next time I will get rid of the
quotes because Ifeel like it
doesn’treallymatch with the
context of this magazine.The
quotes would be more suitable
for a philosophymagazine.
I chose a medium
shotof the school
library because the
library is too big to
take in one photo.

I chose the pencils
as the page border
because itmatches
the context of the
magazine where
the magazine is
aboutschool.I
chose appropriate
formal images and I
pick images that
students and
teachers can relate
to. For example
mostof the target
audience can relate
to Canary Wharf
picture since it is in
London.
I chose the
pictures and
text to be
separated
from each for
the page
layout. This is
because I
didn’twant
the readers to
get confuse
with the
layout and
this may lose
their interest
of reading the
magazine.
Next time I will improve the
context page by using more
relatable content.For example
I would use French exchange
students because itis more
likely that French exchange
students will come to this
school rather than Japanese
due to France being part of the
EU.
