The document discusses potential audience profiles for a music magazine cover, identifying the target age range as 15-21 year olds who would be fans of the genre featured. Both male and female genders are identified as the target audience. The proposed psychographic profile for the audience is "emulator," as fans of the band on the cover would seek to emulate the musicians they idolize.

I have chosen this particular magazine
cover because of the layout and the
genre. The magazine shows the main
subject (Kurt Cobain) in the center of the
magazine with a high key effect in order
to give the impression that the photo was
taken in a studio. The magazine has used
a reverse to make the logo of the
magazine stand out more and have only
used three colours which consist of black,
white and red. Having only used three
colours on the cover it made the red
stand out and drag attention the the
magazine. Kurt Cobain, lead
singer/guitarist of nirvana(the face of
grunge) was inspiring and thought to be
the voice for the generation in his time,
both the band and Kurt cobain still inspire
many people today.

I have chosen this particular magazine
cover because it’s a music based magazine
which is similar to my magazine ideas. The
main subject on the magazine cover is a
studio photo shoot, showing off his tattoos
on his arm. The massed head has being
edited portrait style almost like a reflection
to Justin, to suggest that both the
magazine and Justin Bieber are seen as
equals and are both very popular. The
magazine has used three colours, keeping
the cover very simple. The colour of the
Massed head is a orangey-pink which
contrasts well with the dark blue back
ground. Justin Bieber is considered to be
one of the top ten most powerful
celebrities in the world and inspires
millions of people everyday.

4. Existing Product
I have chosen this magazine because it’s very
popular around the globe. I decided to use
this particular cover because Paramore is a
very popular pop-punk band and have
influenced and inspired many fans across the
world. The main feature on the cover is
Hayley Williams with the rest of the band
behind her, this suggests to the audience that
Hayley is the main person in the band. The
editors have put the heading in a electric
pink, they have done tis to make the heading
stand out the most in the cover so that the
audience immediately knows what the
magazine is about. Underneath the heading
the editors have used a rhetorical question,
this is to make the audience think about the
question and want to read the article.

5. Research Analysis
• What common features do the researched products have?
The celebrities that are featured are all very inspirational people in the music
industry.
They are all music related magazines that have a huge following.
They all have the heading in different colours to make the main topic
stand out.
• What aspects of the research will you include within your on work?
I think that I will include a portrait massed head because I think it makes the magazine
cover looks more unique.
I think that I will include simple colours for my cover because of how effective they
are.
