How did you attract/address your audience?

I attracted my target audience from my designs, because i stuck to the genre of music, by using colours which you would associate with the genre. As well as the photographs of a model which clearly looks interested in rock and indie music.

When creating my front cover for my magazine, i had to consider what would really attract and address my target audience. I did not make drastic changes to my photograph for my front cover, i still wanted to keep colour for my front page to make it more eye catching. The font i chose for my mast head is very distinctive. I chose a decorative font, that stands out instantly. The black and red contrasts well together, i used these colours throughout my designing of pages. From the front cover you can instantly see what to expect inside the magazine, as it has all the relevant information on the most interesting parts of the magazine to entice a person to read it.

You can see from my contents page and double page spread that i added detailed information, to these pages like a real magazine publication would. The photograph's on my contents, instantly make the page look realistic, as they are photograph's from a real gig. I thought adding photograph's like this would be a unique selling point as it looks interesting to a reader. For my contents page i again stuck to my theme of black and red, but also added white writing on a black background for an eye catching effect. I thought this was a good idea as it relates to the genre of my magazine. The contents clearly states everything you would expect to find in a music magazine of this genre. For my double page spread, i again stuck with my theme of black and red and stuck with a bold title. I made the interview in bold font to show that it is the main part of the page. For this page i added my photograph's and edited them to black and white for an indie/rock feel. This page would be attractive to a reader as the model's expression is very eye catching and interesting and the bold font really jumps out at you.
