something is put in front of it.

different shapes to make it so

people look at what is inside

more likely to look at something

inside an interesting shape that

magazine challenges the

typical magazine as I have

placed some parts of my

magazine in different places,

for example the barcode,

usually in the bottom right or

left and then what I have

placed in the button would

usually be placed at the top

where the artists names are.

used the same

masthead font on the

top of the page and put

it in the reasonably

same position and the

front cover masthead.

had I put them into a

circle to give it more of

a exciting look linking it

to our genre of pop.

capital letters and

larger font to make the

main bits stand out

from the rest of the

text.

the numbers in in a

different font and in bold

so people know where

to turn to so they can

read the story.

CHALLENGE: instead of having all of

the content in one like

or in one section I

chose to split it down

into 3 sections

coloured fonts one colour

for the questions and one

colour for the answer.

many double page

spreads have colour in

the background but I

decided to add it as it

works well with the

pictures I added.

group-how does your media product represent particular social groups?

The genre of our music magazine is pop; therefore the target audience will be

mainly female teenagers who are interesting the genre of pop. Pop music

follows the connotations of lively, fun and exciting. Therefore through our

magazine, our intended audience are represented in this way.

Our magazine has an upbeat and lively theme throughout. Our magazine has

bright and colourful colour schemes, presenting the readers as people who are

full of life. The bright colours will portray a happy vibe. The unique and interesting

layouts of our front cover, content page and double page spread also give off a

lively and fun vibe making it suitable for the social group our magazine is aimed at.

Pop magazines can often represent their audience as uneducated and

unintelligent due to the use of simple and informal language. We have chosen

to use more sophisticated language, but have still kept it informal. This will represent our target audience as educated, as they are likely to be students.

How I Attracted My Target Audience

The fonts and colours that I used linked well to the target audience our

magazine is based at. The fonts I used were plain and readable to give

them a formal look but also at the same time I tried to make the text the

same as what it would be in a music magazine.

The main image I used was of someone i thought looked like a pop artist

and would appeal to the audience of the magazine. The stories that

included could link well to the audience as people who read the magazine

are just starting to go and do what they want in life so tips like I included in

my magazine like how to make your voice pitch perfect work well. It also

doesn’t contain anything that wouldn’t be suitable for the audience like

bad language.
