3. How far have I met my aims for my audience?
I have met my aims very well for my audience as I have included a different range of colors, images, font styles that I
could possibly use for my magazine images. My target audience is aimed at young, female teenage girls that enjoy
shopping, reading and gossip. I have done thing correctly by producing three articles and convincing people by
wanting to read my magazine by the conventions that I have used; ‘Check inside…’ In bold italics forces the audience
to by the magazine. The colours that I used are bright and it catches my audience’s attention. I definitely think that
the positive feedback that I have received have helped me because it has helped me feel good that the effort and
hard work have paid off and reflected onto my work. However I believe that even though positive feedback is
important, you also need constructive criticism to help you know what needs changing in my work so then I can keep
that in mind and work on that when it comes to future tasks.
