My magazine is mostly aimed at men as i feel the Mod genre is
something that is very male based and quite butch, i thought this from the colour scheme the colours used were quite dark red, blue and green, these were all factors that i took into account that gave me the decision for the magazine to be male targeted, i feel that with this magazine there may be a minor selection of female audience that would be open to this magazine because of there interests in the sort of music and artists involved in the magazine so i would say even though my magazine would be dominated by its male audience there would still be space for a female audience to get involved if the genre was something that they are especially interested in, i think i did equally share the theme so it did suit both male and female as i included both dark and light colours like light blue, white and also yellow which helped equally split the division between the two genders because i believe it is important to respect both sides of your target audience in order to help keep them happy. The age game i decided on would be anyone from late teens all the way up to people the age of 60+ as the magazine genre i chose is something that really can fit a whole range of different people (both gender and also most ages that i stated above) the final factor i took into consideration was social class, i had to think hard about this as i wanted to find a social class/group which was easy to target but also make it so they enjoyed the genre, i did mention about doing it for lower and middle class so that everyone could afford to buy the magazine but maybe releasing it not so often so that people of the lower social group would have time to save and be able to afford the magazine, so overall i think i would have to target the magazine at both men and women from late teens all the way up to older ages(60+) and also aimed at lower and middle class to help make the magazine affordable for all types of social groups.
This helps show the house style of the colour
Scheme Red, White and blue that i used to try and attract the audience for my magazine, i kept well to the house style as i knew it would attract my readers and automatically grab the attention of the readers if they saw my magazine in a shop.
This is my price which relates to my
social class as i thought i would try and keep the price low to make it affordable for all of my target audience, i decided to release the magazine every 2-4 weeks which means the buyers would have time to save up for it if they couldnt
I used a variety of colours
that fitted my house style to try and fit a wide variety of my audience for instance in the mod target i used the colour red to attract the more female side of the audience, i think by doing this it would help attract more people to buy the magazine and overall make it a lot more successful for
