Question 5

5. How did you attract/address your audience?

With my media product, I have addressed the target audience of teenagers and young adults by using certain conventions and imagery to appeal to them. For example, on the cover of my magazine I have used conventions that attract to the target audience. The first would be the main image. The image itself is an image of a teenager that is suggested to be a big star. I used this to attract to the target audience because it is relatable and someone to look up to. A big star would also be of someone that they follow. 

Another conventions would be the context on the page. The subheadings contain other music related people that could attract younger people form their image or name. They appeal to the target audience in their own way which would benefit on the front of a teenage music genre magazine. 

Thirdly, another would be the colour scheme used. This is relatable to the target audience of teenagers and young adults because of the boldness of the colours. My colour theme is red, white and black which are a trend of colours that are bold ad outgoing- relatable to the target audience as it is attracting the people with the trends and boldness of music- teenagers and young adults. 

Overall, my magazine attracted it's audience by the context and the presentational conventions that would attract them. This if from imagery, colour and context.
