6. •On the contents page for my magazine they have
included the date, the issue number and the
website of the magazine. This is effective as the
target audience will be able to follow the magazine
online. It also shows that the magazine is
contemporary as it has an online website which
shows that is very current.
•The content page shows that the magazine is in
favour of women dominance as it has a whole
section dedicated to women in music. And that
could show the audience that women in music are
very successful i.e. Adele. And they can aspire to
be like the iconic figures they see in the magazine.
•The colour scheme of the magazine is very
vibrant and bold. The white, red and black writing
is very similar to the front cover.
•LIIAR: Language: casual language is used so
that it can appeal to their target audience.
•Institution: Bauer Media Group
•Ideology: the of Q magazine is to help promote
the music of upcoming and successful artists
•Audience and Representation: this is the
representation of women the how successful they
can be. Also the fact that she is wearing a little
make up highlights the how confident and innocent
she is and that represents the confidence of young
successful music
7. •On right hand side of my magazine there is a
big red J which represents the artist on the
opposite page.
•There is a clear colour scheme as the J
matches the red on the right hand side. The
red could represent the determination of this
artist.
Language: language that is used is very informal
language on the right page and this is so that it can
appeal to the chosen target audience. For example
‘RapRadar’ this heightens how successful Jay-z is in
the Rap industry.
Institution: Bauer Media Group
Ideology: they’re magazine contains information about
current artists and those who are climbing up the
industry fast.
Audience: this will appeal to teenagers and young
adults as those who aspire to be in the music industry
can follow their idols career through a magazine like
this.
Representation: the bold vibrant colours represent
the chosen target audience as the colours are very
bold and loud. And it could reflect the lively hood.
•Also the J on the right hand side makes adds
more effect as the page is filled with a lot of
writing which might not appeal to the younger
reader. Therefore adding a J adds more
emphasise to the page and can appeal to the
desired target audience.
•The juxtaposition of both pages creates a
more dynamic approach to this music
magazine. The contrast between the dark and
light colours could appeal to the target
audience as it creates a 3D effect and could
give the illusion that the artist is
emerging/hovering out of the page.
•The title on this page is ‘THE MOST
EXPERIENCE ARTIST IN MUSIC –JAYZ’ this
works well with the image as it shows his
determination and the drive he has.
