This document discusses the target audience for a proposed jazz magazine. It will target both men and women over age 25 who enjoy jazz music, as well as younger, passionate fans of the genre. The magazine aims to attract those who play musical instruments and appreciate jazz's variety of sounds. It also seeks to engage radicals and individualists who reject mainstream tastes and prefer to follow their own musical interests, as jazz is not a mainstream genre.

6. As shown my the mood board , I have chosen to produce a Jazz magazine to be aimed at
both genders aged over 25, with a secondary audience of young adults who may be
really passionate about the genre of music. The reason why my magazine will be
aimed at both genders because even though the majority of Jazz artists I researched
are male, the genre itself is not gender specific and the magazine should interest
both genders. Furthermore through my research of other magazines, the ones I
studied seemed to appeal to both genders as they were not gender specific and
contained information and articles to satisfy both men and women.
It should interest those who enjoy playing musical instruments and Jazz is full of different
sounds which people might play. The genre is not a mainstream music genre as
therefore it only attracts the passionate people who are interested in the artists
which come from it.
The people I will be aiming at are Radicals who refuse to accept what people want them
to do, such as following the crowd and being mainstreamers as Jazz is not a
mainstream genre. Also I aim to target individualists who aim to break the mould
, which would be a part of radicals as that they do not want to follow the crowd but
to have their own style and listen to their own music which they enjoy even if it
might not be to everyone else’s taste.
