Evaluation - Question 5

How did you attract/address your audience?

                                           

Here I asked a few people who fit my target audience what they thought of my magazine and if it attracts them:

Do you like my front cover and why?

What do you think about the colour scheme? Does it attract you to the magazine?

Do you like my contents page and if so why?

What do you think about the layout?

What do you think about my double page spread?

What first attracts you to my double page spread?

What do you think about the layout? Is it similar to other pop magazines that you have seen and if so why?

As you are apart of my target audience (girls aged 14-16) do you think that it is something that you would buy? 

Evaluation - Question 4

Question 4 - Who would be the audience for your media product?

The audience for my media product would be the social groups that I am representing which are teenage girls and pop music fans. My audience would be teenage girls aged 14-16. My reasoning for this is because the dominant ideology of the pop music genre creates the idea that the majority of buyers for pop magazines are teenage girls. 

Here I have created a typical physical profile for someone likely to be from my target audience:

This would be a stereotypical representation of the type of individual I expect would fit into my target audience.
The age range can vary from 12-16 but ideally would fit into the 14-16 range. She would dress fairly fashionably, often keeping up with the latest friends and enjoys buying new clothes at the weekend with her pocket money. She would shop in places like New Look, Topshop, H&M, River Island and Miss Selfridge. 
The music she would listen to would mainly be centred around the pop music genre, listening to artists and groups such as: One Direction, Taylor Swift, The Vamps, Katy Perry, JLS, Rihanna, Jessie J, Little Mix, Olly Murs and Neon Jungle. Often tuning into radio stations such as Capital FM and Radio 1 for the latest chart hits and The UK Top 40.
She enjoys films like Mean Girls, Angus Thongs & Perfect Snogging, The Holiday, Bride Wars, Bridesmaids, St Trinians and Sex & The City. 
TV shows that they would watch would include: Hollyoaks, The Big Bang Theory, Friends, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, and also various music channels such as MTV, 4Music and VIVA. 
Other hobbies would include meeting up with friends, going to pop concerts, texting and shopping. 
Most visited websites would include Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Tumblr. 
Other interests relating to music would be downloading and listening to pop music on websites such as YouTube and watching interviews with artists on TV.
Buying habits would include pop magazines, make-up and clothes.

My target audience is teenage girls aged 14-16 and therefore in full time education, perhaps not having their own source of income and so enjoy cheap magazines packed full of content.

Here is the link to popular boyband JLS advertising a signed poster from the magazine Top of The Pops which is distributed by the institution Immediate Media Company. As my magazine covers groups like JLS it shows that this is the type of company that would want to distribute my magazine.
