The magazine attracts and addresses a young audience through features like a cluttered and exciting front cover and contents page, bright colors, and a large eye-catching masthead. The written pieces have a compelling story but are not too complex to deter the target audience. Specific conventions used include a provocative pull quote and a message from the writer on the contents page addressing enjoyment of the magazine and relating it to the pop genre.

HOW DID YOU
ATTRACT/ADDRESS YOUR AUDIENCE? The magazine I have created attracts and addresses the audiences I had in mind through many features and conventions. Some of the features I have used are the fact that I have made my front cover and contents very cluttered which makes it more exciting. This is relevant to my audience because as I have said before my audience is a younger group and younger groups prefer excitement and clutter over organised and ordered magazines in which an older generation would prefer. Another feature/convention I have used to attract my audience is colour. I have made my project/magazine include many bright and exciting colours, which is conventional to pop magazines. Having bright and exciting colours such as blues yellows and pinks will appeal to a younger audience, which is the audience that I am trying to attract and address within my media project/magazine. The typeface of my media project/magazine is also designed with my audience in mind. I have done this by having a large and outstanding masthead to draw in the audience because as a result of my research I have learned that this is the kind of excitement that will attract my specific audience. The written aspects I have included were also created in mind of the audience in the sense that the masthead I have created is a small and catchy title for the magazine pop til we drop. This creates a fun and exciting presumption for the magazine, which through my research again I know, is appealing to my audience. I have also written my actual written pieces within my double page spread in a way that gives off a good storey but is not too complicated as it may deter the certain kind of audience that I am trying to cater for. In my media project/magazine I am trying to attract a certain audience and trying to put across a message/moral of over exaggerated stories within the media and if the way I have structured my magazine works the way I intend hopefully my audience will recognise the amount of irrelevant stories within the media and how the media could use its power over society and its resources to portray a better image for their audience. Some aspects i must address separately are specific conventions to each and every part of the final magazine project. One of these would be related to my double page spread and how i must include a pull quote. The way i have used a pull quote to attract my audience is that i have made it a provoking and intimate one. It is Im single I swear! this creates a very attracting storey for my audience. I have also had a specific convention for my front cover and contents page. The front cover would be the main masthead, although the contents page most likely include this also however, it will be larger. This means i will have to make the masthead work outstanding and exciting. Finally, the specific convention for my contents page will be the writers message. This will be a message from the writer addressing that they hope you enjoy the magazine, this why i have done exactly that but i have also made it relate to my genre, pop.
