The document discusses how the creator of a magazine called "CLIQUE" designed elements of the magazine to attract their target audience of 16-20 year old males. Some key design elements that were meant to attract the target audience included using slang words like "CLIQUE" and "HYPE" in the magazine title, featuring articles on topics relevant to that age group like music reviews, and including fashionable images of models wearing expensive clothing and accessories. The document explains that these elements were intended to make the magazine feel current, relatable and aspirational to 16-20 year old males.

3. I think the layout of the contents page attracts my target audience because
of how graphically advanced and aesthetically pleasing it is. The use of two
tone colouring makes the page look and feel modern which appeals to the
younger audience.
The image I have used on my contents page attracts my 16-20 year old
target audience because the image is very cool and modern. The editing
makes the image look different to most images I have seen in contents
pages and I feel it attracts to the younger audience more because of its
quirky side.
The article I have advertised on the contents page would attract my
audience because of the way it is informally worded. ‘Catch-Up’
makes the reader feel as though they are just experiencing a casual
chat, not a formal article, which is something my audience would like
and be attracted to.
The content of my magazine would attract my target audience
because the content is very current and something which 16-20
year olds would be interested in. For example, ‘Album Reviews’ is
something that age range would be interested in because my
research told me that they regularly download new music so they
would want to know the albums which are currently the best so they
can download them.

4. • The main image on the double page spread would attract my target audience because the model is wearing expensive clothing
and sunglasses. This makes the model look fashionable which is something 16-20 year old males are interested in.
• The minimalistic approach to the double page spread would attract my audience because they are young and do not want to be
over crammed with information, they just want the facts. The main items on the double page spread are the article and the image
so I didn’t want them to lose focus on the page.
•The font used for ‘drugs to dollars’ would attract my target audience because the font is different and quirky. It stands out and
draws the attention of the reader to the page, which would attract 16-20 year olds as they want to be engaged with the magazine.
