Q5- How do you attract/address your audience?

Models
As my target audience is mainly females, I have chosen females to be my models as they can relate to the audience more because of the stories inside the magazines. Also, teenage girls will look up to female celebrities and become their fan, so if my female had a large fan base more people will be attracted to the magazine. Also, since my model is an attractive young female this will create more attention for my magazine.


I dressed my model in darker clothes to fit the rock genre and in typical clothes teenage girls would wear (Skinny jeans, crop top and high heels) to inspire teenage girls for outfits and for them to look at my model and see a role model and she looks just like how my audience may look. Dressing my model up in rock like clothing will hopefully attract people interested in the rock genre, making them want to buy the magazine.



Audience Interests
The front cover of my magazine contains some bands and artists that are very popular and are trending in the rock genre like My Chemical Romance and Fall Out Boy. I've also used bands like Queen to attract an older audience but also because I am certain a lot of teenagers still listen to them now so their music is still popular with all ages. I've also included more artists in my contents page like P!nk, Paramore, Black Veil Brides ect.. so there is a whole range of different bands and artists for my audience to read about.
I also picked my colours on the basis that they were conventional to the rock genre and my audience would like the colour scheme of red, black and white.

Language choices
Since my audience is mainly teenagers, I did not want my magazine to be formal and using Jargon, this is why I used standard English and made it simple to read. My double page spread includes standard English and is very chatty as it is supposed to seem like my model (who is a celebrity in my magazine) is having a normal conversation with the interviewer. My front cover includes quotes from inside the magazine that seem chatty and informal to show that there has been an interview taken place which the audience will want to read.
