- The magazine audience is aimed at both male and female teenagers, as evidenced by the vibrant color scheme used without gendered colors like pink or blue. - The content, such as interviews, is informal to appeal to younger readers who want to keep up with their favorite artists. - Images on the cover, such as a young model portrayed as Eminem wearing a hoodie, also signal the target age group of teenagers.

1. Who would be the audience for your
product?

2. My magazine isn’t as clear in showing who the audience for it is, however there
are some aspects that show us who it’s roughly aimed at. One of these being the
final colour scheme that I have chosen, the colour scheme clearly shows that my
product is for both male and female audience as there isn’t any specific colours
that would suggest a male or female only audience such as pink or blue. Through
the production of my magazine I had to keep in mind that my survey participants
preferred vibrant colours and that is what they would prefer to see on a music
magazine so I have created this with the red, yellow and green that I used
throughout my magazine. This clearly shows that it’s aimed at both genders.

3. As well as that, through my survey I found that the
majority of the participants were teenagers (under
the age of 18) and so I had to stick with that through
my production. It is evident that ‘Unleash’ music
magazine is for older teenagers because of the
mature yet vibrant colour scheme and the font style
of the writing on the front cover and the contents
page as it’s nothing boring and is quite different to
the fonts that magazines use when the audience is
older, as that is more professional and formal.

4. The appropriate age of the magazine is also shown through the model
as he’s imagined to be Eminem yet he is young and of the same age as
the target age of the audience. By putting a young model on my front
cover the audience can relate more towards him even though it’s
supposed to be Eminem.
As well as that, my model is wearing a black hoodie which is an item of
clothing that is mostly seen within the younger generations and so the
costume reflects the age group.

5. The content of my double page spread article clearly
shows the audience the my magazine is for as it’s an
interview which is informal and so appeals to the younger
audience like teenagers as they like to keep up with their
favourite artists and know what’s going on with them. As
well as that when I did my survey, a lot of the participants
answered that they buy magazines for the interviews.
Therefore when I was creating my article for my double
page spread I had to keep that in mind. If the magazine
was aimed at someone older then they may find the
interview style article very childish and irrelevant as to
what they’re looking for as they would prefer other article
styles.
My interview clearly shows that there were two people
speaking and doing the interview and being the
interviewer. When I did this I kept my audience in mine
and made it as simple as possible as teenagers tend to not
go into much detail when they’re looking for something so
by changing the font colour between the two different
people talking, it allows the reader to quickly notice when
each person is speaking so it will appeal to them more.

6. My magazine is for working class people because of the
price of £2.99 and since the magazine is a monthly issue
then it won’t affect my reader as much financially. During
production I realised that if my magazine was a weekly
subscription at this price then it would put my readers off
buying it as shown through my surveymonkey
questionnaire, with the majority of people willing to buy a
music magazine at the rate of £3 and the fact that they
would buy the magazine monthly showed me that this is
the best thing to do.
