2. WHAT I WAS GOING TO DO TO MAKE
MY MAGAZINE ATTRACT THE
TARGET AUDIENCE?
I have tried to attract my readers by using more
dark colours in the magazine to show the genre
of rock and how it is very powerful and
aggressive which creates a more of a very hard
meaning rock music magazine. One of these
ways is by having a consistent house style
which included the colours red, white and black
I’ve also tried to attract readers by using a
graphic and big font for the masthead. As it
would grasp the reader’s attention as it would
look very stylish and fresh towards the young
audience.
3. The tone that I have used is quite informal by using slang and mainly
used in 1st/3rd person(as it shows sense of community and sense of
feeling a part of something with other people) as it is particularly
aimed at teenagers. As informal language attracts my audience e.g.
let’s rock & roll.
The use of font, colour scheme and layout does address my audience
by using very dark colours and the colour scheme is very consistent
to create a house style of the colours red, black and white as they are
the main colours which are used in other rock magazines as well such
as kerrang and rock sound and the use of the colour scheme
correspond with how the genre of rock is being shown and the colour
scheme links with how the normal rock artists show their appearance
and body attitudes towards their target audience.
4. HOW THE USE OF THE IMAGES
HELP S ME TO ADDRESS MUSIC
WITHIN THE MUSIC MAGAZINE
The use of the images of the models helps me to address how my target
audience, as mostly female rock bands and artists are in them. Which
clearly establishes how it is mostly aimed at female rockers who are into
the rock music, fashion and want to know more about the culture of it. As,
the rock music fans would want to explore ,more in the genre of rock e.g.
they would want to find more rock music artists out, they would want to
discover more about the unknown artists e.g. there tours, concert/gig
dates, albums/Eps/singles and etc. Also, the use of different types of
social media is very effective towards my target audience as they receive
information from different types of social media such as Instagram or
twitter.
