5. The front cover will appeal to target audience in
a few ways. One of the ways is that if they
know of any of the bands or acts
mentioned on it then they will be
interested and want to read more.
Also, the colours on it appeal to them as
they’re quite grainy and urban colours.
Also, the clothes and general cover style of
the star fit in to the stereotype of
‘Alternative’ and ‘Rock’ so this will also
appeal to the target audience. The fact that
the artists who are featured in the
magazine are unsigned will attract the
target audience as well because they’ll
want to discover new bands/acts.
6. Similarly to my front cover, there are a few
ways that my contents page will appeal
to my target audience. One of them is the
amount of artists shown on it. They may
see an artist they already know or an
artist they like the look of and want to
read on. Also, the clothes that the guy in
the main image is wearing could
potentially fit into the stereotype of
‘Indie’ or ‘Alternative’ which may be the
preferred genre of the reader, making
them want to read on. The colours used
are quite bland which also fits into
similar genres.
7. The double page spread will also appeal to my target audience in a few ways.
Firstly, if they know the artist featured then they will be interested to read
the interview and find out more about him. Also the clothes that he is
wearing, for anyone reading that doesn’t know of him, may give them an
idea of what genre of music he makes and they may want to read up on
him. The colours used are quite bland, grainy colours which fit into the
genres of ‘Alternative’ and ‘Indie Rock’ so again the target audience will
be aware of the genre and potentially interested to read more.
