2. Magazines most often attract their audience through the front cover. My
magazine is no different as I have attracted my audience through the content
featured on my front cover. On my front cover I offer Exclusive interviews
with Rap artists and used a large image of the artist. This can help draw the
attention of the audience and can be eye catching. This also stands for the
colour scheme as the target audience will recognise the colours. I have also
combined contrasting colours together to give a more stand out effect.

3. Low opacity writing
I used this feature as I
thought it looked good with
the colour red. I have
written artists names
throughout the background
of my contents to show the
reader what the magazine
contains.
Image
The image that I chose to use
is of one of the featured
artists in my article. The artist
is wearing dark clothing to
contrast with the red and
white background.

4. I also attracted my audience through the price of my magazine. The price is also
an important factor when drawing in my audience. Because my audience is those
of low demographics I would sell the magazine at a low price of £2.99. Also to
relate to my audience I have addressed my audience with colloquial language and
used colloquial language throughout my magazine. I have used this language
because it is relatable for my audience and is easily understandable.
5. XXL Magazine is a high end rap magazine that
is distributed and produced from New York.
XXL is a higher class magazine and covers
more successful artists in the present and not
there past. The magazine features high end
advertisements and promotes a wealthy life
style. Therefore it is a high priced magazine.
XXL Magazine sells for
$10.00 which is around
£6.00.
