2. I have used a range of colours within my magazine
that would appeal to the target audience. Within my
research into the target audience, I questioned
them on what colours they would most like to see in
a pop magazine. The colours that were most
commonly said were pink, purple and white. These
three colours make up my housestyle.
These colours would appeal to my target audience
due to the fact they are bright, vibrant and also
feminine colours.
The fact that I have used a clear housestyle
throughout makes my magazine look more
organised and clear, this would appeal to my target
audience as it would make the magazine easier to
read overall.
In selective areas of my magazine I have used the
colour yellow to highlight the important content to
draw in the attention to the reader. This would
appeal to the target audience as it again makes the
magazine more organised and easier to navigate
through
3. The fonts I have used appeal to my target audience as
I have varied the fonts I have used throughout all of my
magazine pages (Front cover, contents page and double
page spread).
The font styles I have used are both sans serif and
serif, both styles of writing would appeal to my target
audience.
Serif fonts: Serif fonts are seen as sophisticated
and girly, this would appeal to the target audience
as they would enjoy looking at this type of
typography
Sans serif fonts: Sans serif fonts are seen to
be clear and easy to read. They are also
typically bold, this would appeal to my
audience as it would make the magazine
easier to read throughout and make it look
more organised
4. The images I have used within my magazine appeal
to my target audience as I have used images of
artists that would appeal to the target audience and
also images of the psychographics of my target
audience e.g fashion.
The characters in the images in my magazine would
appeal to my target audience as they are smiling and
connoting relaxation making the magazine more
inviting. The body language of the artists also makes
them seem more appealing to the target audience, as
they look more relaxed and friendly
The age of the artists would also appeal to the
target audience as the artists are around the
same age of the target audience
5. The language I have used within my
magazine would appeal to my target
audience as I have used a chatty and
informal tone throughout my magazine. I
have also included teenage dialect
throughout as this would appeal to my
target audience because they would be
able to relate to the content and
information if it is portrayed in this way
Examples of where I have used language
to appeal to my audience is mainly in the
editors letter where I am speaking to the
audience directly.
I have also used language mainly within
my interview on my double page spread. I
have made the questions very chatty and
informal to appeal to the audience
6. The content I have used within my magazine
would appeal to my target audience as I have
included the psychographics of the target
audience
I have included many articles of various pop
artists within my magazine as this will appeal
specifically to my target audience
I have also included a section called ‘Style Fix’
where I have added content on fashion and
beauty. This would appeal to my target
audience as this a psychographic that would
appeal to my target audience.
From my research I have found that my target
audience would also like to include content that
the target audience have sent in. I have
included this in my magazine as this it is very
appealing.
I have also included many quizzes and
competitions in my magazine as this is some
audience interaction that would appeal specially
