How did you attract/address your audience?

There was many ways in which I attracted my audience. First of all what I did was, I formed a questionnaire for my target audience where I asked them various questions such as Who is your favorite artist? What gender they are, how much they are willing to pay for a music magazine and many more. ( Questionnaire results page 3). This was a very important part of the making of the magazine because we needed to know what audience wanted. From the questionnaire one thing that I found out was that young teens liked One Direction more than any of the other artists this is why i decided to add a picture of young 5 attractive boys,

as shown on the bottom of the magazine is where I placed the image and gave them the name Destination, One Direction? what direction, where are they going? To a destination! that is how the idea came.

As shown in my Questionnaire results (Questionnaire results page 3)  90% of my audience are all female, and to attract the female audience I decided to add some hair and beauty things for example on the bottom left hand corner you can see there is an image of  healthy looking hair, and on the top right hand corner there is an image and tagline saying `Get the look' this will attract the female audience mostly because its targeted towards the female gender.

To attract my audience that are mostly all female I used feminine colours and Bold colours too. The background of this magazine cover is light coral, I chose this colour because its very feminine and also because it's in fashion at the moment, I chose colours like red, blue and yellow to bring out the writings and the images more not just the main image but the taglines and the smaller images on the side. The fonts are all different in size and fonts because its a pop magazine it should be a little different and eyecatching this is why I have used more than 5 fonts all in different sizes to attract the audience and make easier to read. The main image attracts the audience as its a young beautiful model, natural looking and the main tagline `Change is Better' would want them to read about it.

This is the content page for my magazine as you can see it is layed out similarly like my researched magazine `Top of the Pops'. my content page does not have a editors message because out of all the `Top of the Pops' magazine I researched, I found only one editors letter that is why i decided not to have a editors letter but instead add more pictures and a chance to win concert tickets for the audience.
