Question 5 - Pre Technology

In order to attract my audience I had to react to the feedback which was provided:

  - In my magazine pitch I mentioned the designing of my own font for my masthead, however my peers mentioned that it would be more effective if I was to use a more simple and bold font as it was easier to read. I had listened to them as they were all part of my target audience.

  - Another method which I used to attract my audience was through the images which were used, the images used in the magazine were of individuals within my target audience, the images have been shot in order to represent success and luxury which could be used to attract a larger audience. However, from receiving feedback, I have realised that I may need to change some of the images used in my magazine as they do not link in very well with the genre of the magazine, the images have little relation to music which is a disadvantage.

  - The colour scheme for the magazine, black, white and red, were also quite effective in attracting my target audience, the colour scheme was similar to that of Vibe Magazine which has a large audience and is easily recognisable through the colour scheme.

  - Feedback from the audience reflects the effectiveness of my double page spread. By presenting my double page spread article to the target audience I have learnt that the article was interesting but could be improved through the alteration of language, by making the language more informal and by reducing the length of the article.
