how I interacted with my audience

1. How did you attract/address
your audience?
Q5

2. To attract a wider audience on my front page I quoted
my model saying “music saved my life” this is a strong
line as it will leave people wondering why, how and
what does it really mean. This will cause people to
buy the magazine to find out the answers to their
own questions.
Another way I attracted people to buy this edition of
my magazine is the writing in the yellow boxes, in one
I state the First announcement to Leeds & Reading
festival has been announced, this will leave people
wondering who it is and therefore they will have to
buy this magazine to find out. This will also attract
people who already know the line-up because the
magazine will give more information then just finding
out online.
Each yellow box on the front cover leaves the reader
thinking and asking themselves questions that they
will need to buy the magazine to find out the answers
too. This means that more people will be willing and
wanting to buy the magazine to find out the answers.

3. During my double page
spread I addressed the
audience by carrying out a
Q&A in which my consistent
audience could get involved
with the magazine by sending
in questions on our online
website. This would have
been advertised in the
previous edition of our
magazine thus making people
who saw this in the previous
edition to either participate
or get involved. The model I
chose is coming from a
working background, this may
make the reader feel like he is
one of them, they can aspire
to be like him and replicate
his success.

4. This is one way I involved my audience, I emailed
people who I believed would be interested in my
magazine asking them what they believed would
be the best title for my magazine and even what
font style they would prefer. This would make my
audience feel involved in the production of my
magazine and feel like they played a part in the
design of it. I gave the options of numerous titles
and fonts which I created myself, this is so that
whatever the audience decide to choose as a
majority, it is still my work as I came up with these
names and presented them. I chose titles such as
‘yours’ and ‘connected’ as it ties in with the
audiences involvement with my magazine, making
them feel like they have just as much as
involvement with it as me the producer.
