Note to moderator

Dear Moderator,

My brief for my AS Media was to create a Front Cover, Contents Page and Double Page Spread for a new music magazine. I chose to do my music magazine with no particular genre in mind this was to allow me to reach the largest audience possible. However I was mainly advertising to a male audience 16 - 20.

I have used labels on my blog to make it easier for you to find what you are looking for.

Yours Sincerely,
Harry Jones, Edgbarrow School.

Who are my Target Audience and how did I appeal to them?

For my music magazine I attempted to target young mean aged 16 - 20 here is how I did it.

The types of artists that appeared  

One way in which I appeal to my target audience is through the artists that I feature within my music music magazine because they are from the genres and are the favourite artists of my target audience that I found when I researched into my target audience using a questionnaire.

Using Online tools

Since I am planning to sell my magazine online as well as physically I think it would be important to have a large online presence especially on social media because my target audience are known to use social media a lot. Therefore, this might be the most ideal place for me to advertise my magazine.

Front Cover

My front cover appeals to my target audience because the names are of the artists that appeal to them and they are represented on the front cover with the image of the artists therefore the front cover may appeal to them more. 














Contents Page


For my contents page I attempted to appeal to my audience with a mature look and layout. I did this so that the magazine does not feel patronising and so they do not dislike it due to it being too childish for them. However, I chose to still have my magazine be colourful so that it stands out more drawing attention to it.

Double Page Spread
When it came to designing my double page spread I tried to keep professional, sleek and mature so that my audience is not turned off by it. I did this by keeping the colours limited and very basic. I also used more complex language for this more mature audience rather than the simpler language I may have used if it was for a younger audience like 8 – 11 year olds.
