The document contains feedback from two individuals on the design of a magazine cover and contents. Both note that the cover stands out due to its use of bright colors, varied fonts, and intriguing article titles that would attract the target audience. The contents page also effectively features articles and sections that address the interests of the audience in music, bands, and festivals. Images used relate well to the content and help draw in readers. Overall, the feedback indicates the design successfully attracts and addresses the magazine's intended readership.

2. “The cover stands out and has cover lines which makes me want to read the article, it
interests me, the whole image of the front cover matches something I would want to read.
I like the style being shown and having „Melody‟ as the name stands out to a more classic,
not at loud rock, more mainstream and contemporary. The colour scheme all the way
through is iconic and stands out. The wild variety of fonts is fun and intriguing and
makes the pages stand out. The contents page stands out on the page and I like the
modern day twist of women in music, as a man I would still want to read the articles
about women in music. The photos are well thought out and I like how they relate to
festivals or gigs. The double page spread has an interesting article all about what rock is,
partying, music, drugs etc. however the photo isn‟t as strong as the others” – Bradley Yates
“When I first saw all the pages of the magazine that have been created it instantly stood
out, the colours are all bright outgoing and it makes it look like there is more going on, on
the pages. The articles on the front cover and contents page are all articles I would want
to read and even though the magazine is obviously targeted at men, the product has
cleverly been made so it slyly is targeted at women as well. As the women in music
feature men would read and be interested in but also a women would be too. The images
are all strong and the final double page spread article is interesting to me. The fonts are
mostly different on all 3 pages however some stay the same but it makes it stand out. I
like how it has kept to the representation of rock genre even if it isn‟t heavy rock it has
still kept to the genre therefore interests me because I am into that music.” – Amy Kendall

3. It stands out as an iconic masthead which is
what my audience are looking for they are
looking for the masthead that will catch their
eyes. The drop shadow adds a dimension to it
and the colour stands out against the main
image.
The range of font and colours with the main cover line, it
makes the cover line stand out as the main article with the
colours contrasting against each other and the font
complementing each other making it stand out to my
audience. The cover line itself stands out as it has a pull
quote saying „music changed my life‟ making my audience
want to know how and why she has „rocked us away‟.
Exclusive draws the eye to the reader straight away as they want to
be the first person to read this exclusive column. The fact it is in a
weird way being on a path on a circle makes it stand out and appeal
to the reader.

4. The fact the cover lines relate to thing that my audience would enjoy reading for
example „Drugs, parties & music‟ it also makes the cover lines stand out as they are in a
variety of different fonts and in different colours so your eyes get attracted to them. The
red lines break it up and add another thing that my audience will see and want to read
the text by it. The other cover lines like „What's on this summer‟ and „the download
chart‟ may make my audience feel by reading it they are up to date with current events
and music.
These two images attract my audience as they relate to events they would
be interested in gigs and festivals which is what my audience want to see.
Therefore implying that they will be in the magazine making my audience
want to buy it. The tags on the images make the link to what festivals they
relate to.
The main image on the front cover stands out as it looks like an iconic
rock cover, the black and white allows the colour scheme of the front
cover stand out and allows the masthead to contrast as well and makes
it have a 3D feel. The hands on the face will draw in the audience as it
is a focus point, the fact the artist is staring straight at my audience
means she is communicating to the audience. It is a photo that my
audience would see and relate to it has the style and edge that would
attract my audience.

5. I have shortened down the masthead to a logo
this will attract them as it is still iconic and they
will recognise the magazine from it. The different
fonts stand out against each other and the web
address and twitter will attract my target
audience to look a these pages.
These images will
address my target
audience as these are
interests they have going
to gig and festivals and
thee link to articles
about thee event which
will attract my audience
to read these articles.
The editors would address my target
audience as they will be interested in
reading what the editor would have to
say.

6. All these sections of
the contents page
will attract my
audience it has a
article for every
aspect of my
audience the
features include
bands and music
interests for example
„fall out boy‟, „ac/dc‟
„downloads‟ „acts of
2013/4‟. The women
in music integrates a
female audience to
the magazine, and
also sticks to the
male audience to as
they will also be
interested in the
modern twist to
music. The every
month section is
something my
audience will enjoy
as they will expect it
every month and
enjoy reading it.
Double Page
Spread
The pull quote attracts my audience in as they
will read it and want to read more of the article,
they want to know why is Lilly Allen funny with
a hangover, what they have been up to and what
parties have they been to. It address the audience
as they want to know about the partying and the
wild antics.

7. The main image stands out to
my audience as she has their
look the dark out there clothes,
the crazy dark hair and the full
make-up face. The pose attract
the male audience as the pose
is quite sexual but she also
attracts the female audience
with the smile and style. She is
looking away from the
audience but as her body is
still facing front she is inviting
the audience in.
The „exclusive‟ attracts the
audience as it makes them feel it‟s
a must read and makes them want
to read the article.
The heading is the artists name
and will attract them to the article
as they‟ll want to know who it is.
The pull quote will attract them as
it mentions a wild side and people
who read this magazine will like to
read about thing like that.

8. I feel that I have attracted the mode of address of my audience I have tried to
make the magazine attract and address them by including things they would
be interested in such as gigs and concerts. I have addressed the genre of rock
by the colours, images and text(cover lines, contents and the main article)
which they will like as they are the audience to the rock genre. I have also
addressed the conventions of a rock magazine as well the iconic colours that
will attract my audience and the design and layout I have created for the
magazine relates to the way I they audience want to be attracted and
addressed by.
