How did you
attract/address your
audience?
Front cover
• On my front cover I
attracted my audience
through a variety of
different features.
• This includes my Title,
Pictures and cover lines.
Front cover - Title
• My title has attracted and addressed my
audience because it is slang. By using slang
as my title I have addressed a younger
audience that would understand what the
word means. This is the type of audience that
my magazine content is aimed at.
• In addition to this I have attracted the
audience with Title as it is bold and block.
This allows it to stand out against the
coloured background and grabs the attention
of the reader.
Front cover - Picture
• The picture I have used on my front
cover shows a model looking at the
camera. This addresses my audience
directly and attracts them to the
magazine.
• Furthermore, the model is wearing
clothes associated with the genre of
music that my magazine represents and
the colours used on the picture are
fitting with the theme of my magazine.
• This allows the front cover to reflect on
the magazine genre and attracts the
younger generation audience that my
magazine is aimed at.
Front cover - Cover lines
• On my magazine front cover
I have included a variety of
cover lines that will attract
my audience. This is
because I have used the
names of popular chart
music artists on my front
cover. I have also put this in
a larger font, allowing it to
stand out from the rest of the
text.
• This will grab the audiences
attention and could also help
to define the genre of my
magazine. This could attract
my audience to the
magazine as they will
recognise the popular music
artists.
Contents Page
• On my contents page I have
attracted and addressed my
audience through different
ways.
• For example; Sub-headings,
Pictures, layout.
Contents -
Sub-headings• The sub-headings I have used
highlight the important features of
the magazine contents and
summarise certain key aspects of
the magazine. This allows me to
attract my audience to specific
features.
• This is important as it tells my
audience the magazine content and
therefore addresses an audience
that would want to read about the
chart music and the music artists.
Contents -Images
• I have used a variety of images on my contents page
to attract my audience to particular articles in my
magazine. I have also broken up the text and
complemented the writing by using relevant images.
• The pictures used also contain some well-known
artists of my chosen genre. This will attract the
attention of my audience and highlight the contents
of my magazine.
Contents - Layout• The way I have presented my contents page allows me to
attract my audience. This is because of the use of lots of
images and little text together attracts a younger
audience who don’t want to read large paragraphs.
• In addition to this I have again used colours that will
reflect on my music genre.
• I have chosen to do a double page contents page. This is
because it has allowed me to spread things out more and
use more images. This attracts my audience because it
looks like there is less text and this is important when you
are aiming at a younger audience.
Double page spread
• I have attracted and addressed
my audience on my double
page spread by using features
that will appeal to them. This
consists of the size of my text
as well as the size and use of
images.
DPS - Text• I have enlarged the
artists name on my
double page spread so
that it covers almost a
third of the page.
• This is important as it
attracts the attention of
the audience and
highlights the contents of
that article. It also allows
me to include less writing
on the page, therefore
appealing to my target
audience. In addition to
this by using the well
known name of a
relevant music artist it
attracts my audience to
DPS - Images• I have used an image to cover the
whole of one page.This has allowed
me to condense the writing to one
side.
• I have only used one image on my
double page spread as this is the
common layout for many magazines
and seems to be popular.
• It allows me to have a smaller
amount of writing which appeals to
my audience. But it also means the
page doesn't look cluttered with
images.
• This gives it a tidier, more
professional look.
