How did you attract/address your audience?
To attract a very similar age group of readers to my magazine I made sure my model was roughly the same age as my target audience. Nevertheless, you will find that in question 2 I have already discussed how I would attract my audience to my product through the use of costume, jewellery, styling, hair style, non-verbal communication and shot type. In addition, there is a section on my contents page that is dedicated to music fashion and by doing this I want to attract females who are into fashion.
To address my audience I have used a variety of linguistic features in my coverlines on the front cover. The coverline, “THE 10 BEST GIGS OF THE MONTH” is further exaggerated with the use of ‘best’ expressed as a hyperbole. I have also used repetition in a triadic structure where the same text is repeated three times. This coverline is lyrics of a song displayed in a large pink font to catch the audience’s recognition and make them remember the words.
I used Standard English to get across my audience because people would take it seriously if it’s sounds more professional. Another linguistic feature I’ve used is alliteration, “more must” to emphasise the point that there is “176 more must-have songs”. Also, I have added an exclamation mark for exaggeration to communicate the tone of most 15 year old girls.
