Q5. How do you attract/address your audience? In my magazine I have used a lot of direct address so it draws the audience in by making them feel like the person or band featured is looking directly at them. By using a bold red, white and black colour scheme I have made it more obvious to the audience that it is a rock magazine because I conducted research before I started to produce my magazine and the majority of people said the three colours they would associate with rock are the ones I have used, addressing it to an audience interested in rock. The people who I have used in my magazine are fairly young so I would expect this to address a younger audience but there are elements of my magazine that appeal to an older audience for example some of the feature content and regulars like I have a Dave Grohl feature about Kurt Cobain both of whom are from before a young audience’s era so it would attract an older audience.

Q5. How do you attract/address your audience?

In my magazine I have used a lot of direct address so it draws the audience in by making them feel like the person or band featured is looking directly at them. By using a bold red, white and black colour scheme I have made it more obvious to the audience that it is a rock magazine because I conducted research before I started to produce my magazine and the majority of people said the three colours they would associate with rock are the ones I have used, addressing it to an audience interested in rock. The people who I have used in my magazine are fairly young so I would expect this to address a younger audience but there are elements of my magazine that appeal to an older audience for example some of the feature content and regulars like I have a Dave Grohl feature about Kurt Cobain both of whom are from before a young audience’s era so it would attract an older audience.
