6) What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

5) How did you attract/address your audience?



How do you think I've used the indie genre in my magazine? (0:00-0-34)
Does my fictional artist remind you of anyone? (0:35-1:08)
Do you think that the front cover, contents page and double page spread work well together at one magazine? (1:09-1:46)
Does any parts of my magazine stand out for you? (1:47-2:24)


What do you like about my magazine?

4) Who would be the audience for your media product?

My magazine will be for males and females. This is because my survey shows me to that both male and females are interested in my magazine. I wanted to appeal to male and females because it would be a greater audience there for I will get more money. This is why I used the colour blue as my main colour because I feel that it can appeal to men and women.

My survey will be aimed at 15 - 24 since I got 100% on my question. This is why I included Eddy Lart as my main story, because he is in the age range of 15 - 24, this would let the audience and my magazine have a connection.


I will aim my magazine at ABC1 since this band is the most popular according to my survey. A is upper middle class, B is middle class and C1 is lower middle class. I have armed it at these classes because not only because of my survey but because I will be able to charge a higher price for it. Also if I am charging a higher price then I would be able to spend more on the making of the magazine, which would increase the quality of my magazine.
When I asked what your favourite genre of music the most popular answer was the indie genre. I then based my magazine on this genre. I then began to research it and plan my magazine. I looked in to artist like Ed Sheeran and Adele since they are in the indie genre. I then took elements of them and used them on my magazine. For example I have used a guitar to help represent my genre, Ed Sheeran also does this since it is an important element of his music.

In my survey I asked which was your three favourite. I have put any indie artist like Ed Sheeran or Arctic Monkey's on my front cover or contents page. This would help my magazine sell since that these are well known artist.


I how many constants you go to because I needed to know weather I should put concert tickets in. Since I got 92.86% on 0 -3 I chose not to put any in because I thought that was a low score.



I have asked what was your favourite brand and what device do you listen music on. The most popular answer was Apple and smart phone. This is why I put a plug on my front cover saying "win an iPhone". This would attract my audience.


Overall my audience is for both male and females who like the indie genre. Who are in the age range of 15 and 24. My magazine will fit the ABC1 social class because it is in a formal style and also I fall in to this social class so I feel that I can understand it and tell what people want. Also the relaxed and chilled out style of magazine suits the band because people will be looking for a sophisticated. The people who buy my magazine will be in to the indie genre so they will want to know what is happening to the indie artist.
