The magazine uses various techniques to attract and address its target audience of music fans. The masthead clearly identifies the genre as a music magazine. Buzzwords like "free" and "exclusive" in the banner are intended to intrigue readers. Including the issue number orients readers and allows them to follow the magazine's releases. Subheadings cover different music topics like album reviews and upcoming events to appeal to a wide range of ages. A contest promising a chance to win festival tickets is aimed at luring readers in and satisfying their social needs.

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

2. Front cover
Masthead: I made my
masthead simple and effective
by using the name of the genre
plainly to create a real, cool yet
informative name for my
magazine. This allows readers
to identify what genre my music
magazine focusses on and what
they can expect from the copy
Banner: I included buzzwords such as ‘free’ and ‘exclusive’ to include
escapism as the reader feels they are in on a secret. This satisfies
intellectual needs
Additional information:
The issue number of my
magazine keeps readers up to
date and allows them to
follow the release of my
magazine clearly
Sub-story/badge-graphic: This
also allows a variation of avenues
to which my audience can satisfy
their information and needs of
identification
Caption: Identifies the image with
Anchorage text: This text
links to the main image and
allows the reader to relate
the two, making them want
to completely satisfy their
needs of identification
the reader and allows the inclusion
of sub-topics in order to target a
wider range of my audience e.g.
different ages
Sell line: Similarly to the banner the inclusion of
the buzzword ‘win’ initially lures the reader in
and then gives them a chance to satisfy social
needs of winning a free ticket to Reading
festival- a potential outside interest of my target
audience and making them want to buy the
magazine

3. Contents
A band index allows readers to feel
closely attached to the whole
magazine and it adds a summary
effect to the whole of the magazine
Page numbers on my contents
add structure and a clear
organised feel to the magazine,
readers will want to read if they
are aware of the layout as they’ll
feel more in control and
comfortable
Sub-headings: Different
sub-headings include
various different aspects of
the genre e.g. reviews of
albums that have been
released, events coming up
and current events in the
‘live’ section.
The ask section gives
readers a chance to interact
and ask one to one
questions with the editor of
the magazine

4. Double page spread
Heading: By using a quote as a
heading it gives the reader an
insight into the article. This
ultimately grabs their interest
and leads them to read more
into the interview
Image strip: By outlining the article with a strip
of images down the left side this has a similar
effect to the main image whereby it relates image
to text. However, this also adds a more relaxed
feel to the article and that readers can gain an
understanding of NEMESIS’ attitudes and all round
ora by their positioning in the photos for instance
a ‘thumbs up’ pose reveals a very informal,
friendly and fun representation of the band.
Image: This image is the main
aspect that draws readers into
the main of the article. It is the
basis of association between
the two and helps the reader to
feel more personally attached
with the article and also as if
they are close to the artist
himself.
