2. Evaluation
During the planning of my magazine I decided that I would model it
around the idea of Mix Mag. This meant making it appeal to a young –
late teens to early thirties – audience. Mix Mag did this by always
including a young, attractive, tanned and toned model on the front
cover with bright colours that fit the main theme for each issue of each
magazine. They linked both of these aspects together by tying in the
colour scheme with the models clothes matching the fonts on the
page.
This would appeal to the audience as it involves bright, eye catching
colours, partying destinations and attractive models on the front
covers. The style of magazine being based around clubbing, night life
and dance music – people find these factors appealing and therefore
it is incorporated into the magazine to grab attention of these
audience range which is what I need to do.
3. People within the target audience and age range
would be interested in the look of the model(s) on the
cover and how the bright colours fit the style of music
that the magazine represents. Men within the age
range would either be attracted to a female model on
the cover, or, if a male model is featured – be
interested in the way that h looks and maybe even
aspire to look the same way. Similarly, if it was a female
reader, she would either most likely be attracted to a
male model on the front, or be interested in how the
woman model looks, what she is wearing, or her figure.
This broadens the audience for the magazine as it
involves more people than those that are just interested
in the type of music that is featured.
