POPCORN

Who would be the audience for your media product?

The main target audience to my pop magazine would be girls aged 13-16. You can tell that my magazine is aimed at girl mainly because of the colours and how it is presented also they why it is worded. They layout of my magazine is clearing aimed at girls it has boy bands and artist s that have a lot of girls as their fan base. I would say the layout out is suited for girls and it very feminine with the pink and blue colours, even the font is girly as it has hearts in the masthead. It is also targeted at people to like pop genre. Pop means popular and therefore clashes with a lot of other genres which could broaden my target audience so my magazine would be aimed at people who like chart music (e.g. top 10 in the chats).

through the conventions I have followed its clear on who my target audience is. My masthead has heart in it which is what girls like. Also in my content page is has a symbol of a heart and it’s worded in a way a girl would speak, I've done this because it’s how my target audience speak.

When choosing my free give gift I understood that my target audience are aged 13-16 and believe that lip gloss is a suitable gift for my age range. I made my magazine 2.99 because it’s aimed at teens that don’t have a lot of money and by making 2.99 means that they’ll be able to afford it. 13-16 year olds are always on their phones and now day everything has to have some form of social networking which is why I have included social networking where my barcode is and a website for my target audience to get more than just the content in the magazine, so it would be for people who like technology and finding out extra thing about artist or who like looking at images,tweet etc..

My artist isn't wearing a lot of make-up this is to show her innocents and youthfulness. She is still young and I want my audience to relate to her fans. She isn't wearing something fancy or expensive because she is an upcoming artist so she wouldn't have a stylist or designer clothes because she’s still trying to find herself in the music industry. The way my artist is dressed in the front cover and DPS is what a typical teenage girl would wear which would attract my target audience because they’ll feel they can relate to her.
