2. My magazine is targeted towards males between the age of 15 and 30 because
I have chosen pictures of men for my front cover and there is chart music
aimed to this age group throughout.
My magazine uses a grey and gold house style that represents money and
wealth but uses acts in the charts and is written in an easy conversational tone.
This means that it would be directed towards new affluent workers as this
class has average levels of economical capital and this look of ‘wealth’ aims
towards this class.
This group also has a higher levels of cultural and social capital which links to
the type of char music I have feature in my magazine that this group would
become involved with. This is also supported by the way that this class is a
young and active group.
NEW AFFLUENT WORKERS
3. I started with a huge
golden masthead across
the top of my page to
instantly catch the eye of
the reader and the colour
instantly connotes
‘wealth’ and ‘money’.
My Feature Article
Photo covers most of the
page which adds the
touch of fame and
importance to the artist.
MY FRONT
COVER
My puff works in the
context of my house style as
its in the same colour style
and works well with the
magazine.
I have chosen this colour
scheme that uses a grey
and gold house style that
represents money and
wealth but uses acts in
the charts and is written
in an easy conversational
tone.
4. DOUBLE PAGE
I used a model in
stylish clothing and in
a provocative
position to connect
with the young male
demographic that I
am aiming my
magazine towards.
I’ve used a large
quote from my article
so that my
demographic can
easily understand
what the article will
be about.
Linking in with my front cover I have used
the same colour scheme so that it give
connotations of class and sophistication
for the New Affluent Workers. In my double page
spread I have aliened
my text to fit perfectly
around my feature
article photo. This is
important for my
demographic as it looks
nice and makes them
want to purchases my
magazine.
5. CONTENTS PAGE
I have used a gold and grey colour
scheme on my contents page so
that it appeals to my audience of
New Affluent Workers will find it
interesting and see it as
fashionable to be seen reading
something with this
sophistication.
I have used a main feature article
photo in the centre of the page so
that it is clearly visible to the New
Affluent Workers who the
magazine would be about and the
main type of genre of the
magazine.
I have used medium sized
features at the left hand side of
the page so that it is visible to
the New Affluent Workers who
is important and that is shown
to them by the status of size and
the biggest articles would be the
most important articles.
