Who would be the audience for your media

product?

The audience of my magazine would be both male and female, this is why I have used both males and females as artists for my magazine. Another way I have shown that my magazine is for both male and female through the conventions is the colour and font of my text. The font throughout the magazine is simple yet bold, it isn’t floaty or curly which would be considered girly or jagged and messy which would be considered boy like. The colours I used are mainly reds, yellows, blacks and blues and these are all colours you can associate with both male and female.The chosen colours also were correct for my target audience as my target audience is ages 16-30 and these are bright, fun colours that people of those ages like and they represent fun which is why the magazine is aimed at a younger audience.

One criticism I got from my target audience and that I agree with is that because my magazine is for both male and female I should’ve put more pictures of males in my magazine since I only used 2 of the same band in small images on my front cover and contents as seen here.

My magazine is based on artists such as Bombay Bicycle Club, Daughter, Lana Del Rey and more, this is who my original images represent. These are artists whose fans are mainly between the ages of 16-30 which is the ages of my target audience. This is how I attracted and addressed my target audience.
