1. How did you attract/address
your audience?

2. I have attracted my target audience to my magazine
through the use of new and young artists. This is
because teenagers, especially those interested in
career in the music industry, will be able to connect
with the artist, making them more likely to
understand the artist’s situation and therefore this
makes the teenage population more likely to buy
this magazine as it is something that they can
potentially relate to.

3. One way in which I as able to address my audience is
through the use of informal text. This addresses my target
audience as it makes them feel as if they are part of the
interview in the magazine, and therefore the audience are
more likely to enjoy reading the magazine as a result of
this. This is why I made my main article informal because,
being very word based, being of an informal structure
keeps the reader interested and feeling as if the artist is
speaking directly to them.

4. I was able to attract my target audience, the social
group of teenagers because of the clothing that the
featured artists are wearing. This is because the
clothing worn by my featured artists is fashionable
to a teenage audience as well as suiting the genre
of my music magazine because of the plaid shirts,
which are generically related to country and
western music.

5. My magazine has a consistent colour scheme of blue, white
and black throughout. This consistent colour scheme helps
to attract my audience because of the colours chosen. This
is because black, white and blue are very bold and stand
out colours which will therefore catch the target audience’s
attention. As well as being colours that link to the music
genre; country and western.

6. In conclusion I was able to attract my audience
through certain features such as the consistent
colour scheme, and fashion. I was also able to
address my audience through the informal language
used for the double page spread and through the
use of young artists of which the audience are able
to relate to because of their age.
