question 4

1. Question 4) Who would the audience
be for your media product?

2. Who is my audience?
• The main target audience for my pop magazine is
females from the age group of 15-18 year olds.
• The magazine would be aimed at an audience of
people who enjoy listening to pop music, keeping
up to date with pop music artists as well as reading
about latest fashion trends.

3. • The layout of the magazine is aimed at a
more female audience. This is seen through
the front cover and contents page where
the images are of female artists. The artists
are also presented in their own individual
way which come across as unique thus
being appealing to the audience.
• None of the images nor text contain explicit
content and so it is suitable for a young
audience.
• The audience would listen to radio stations
like Capital FM where pop music is more
commonly played.
• It could appeal to audiences of different
races because the magazine includes artists
of different races. This again would be an
appealing aspect for a wider audience.
• The price of the magazine is £2.99, one
which is seen to be suitable for a younger
audience because it is affordable

4. Who Would Purchase my magazine?
• My target audience would purchase my
magazine because it is something that they
would be interested in reading. Most of the
articles within my magazine revolve around
keeping the reader up to date with the latest
music within the industry as well outside the
pop genre. This is seen where there is a
section on ‘The Top 40’ in Spotify and ITunes
charts which would include news on not only
the popular pop music but also other genres.
• Teenagers who want to keep up to date with
the latest trends would want to purchase this
magazine because there is a section on ‘hot
or not’ which highlights the popular trends
this month.
• Also anyone who wants to keep up to date in
regards to celebrity gossip as well as any
upcoming news or events on concerts,
festivals and new releases of music.

5. Reader Profile…
• After creating my magazine, my reader profile would
look more or less the same. This is because the
typical reader is seen to enjoy keeping up to date
with fashion which is something I have included as
well as enjoying going to concerts and festivals which
was also included. However one thing I would change
is that the typical reader could enjoy reading about
artist gossip as well as knowing what is popular this
month in regards to music specifically.

6. After creating the magazine I don’t feel as though my original
audience has changed because I believe it still appeals to my
target audience. This is due to the way my magazine comes
across. As you can see all three pages correlate with one
another to create a magazine which is fun and youthful but at
the same time it has a bit of sophistication too.
