How did you attract/address your audience?

To attract my audience i have used a range of colours, artists, language and images that would appeal to them.

With the colours I used the basic rock/indie colours: red, black and white. By doing this I have already caught some of my target audience’s attention because they are used to reading magzines, looking at images and wearing clothes which are associated with theses colours.

The language I used was quiet informal through out the magazine which also attracts my audience because if it was too formal my audience would not appreciate it. Being the write of the magazine and also the same age range -(16-25) as my audience made it a lot easier for me to write and also easier for the audience to relate to.

The artists that I have used are in the Top 40 so this would therefore attract them to buy my magazine as to keep up to date with the music world. By using theses names my audience will want to read about the either up coming chart hits or there current indie and rock idols.

The clothing I have used also relate to my audience by being individual and also again using the black, red and white theme. Also the people in my images have a lot of piercing and tattoos this also relates to my audience of indie rocker’s.

The headlines I have used are very catchy and informal, by doing this I have attracted my audience straight away as they would feel that by having informal language that the magazine is up to date with teenagers and younger adults.
