The way my magazine attracts the target audience (Evaluation Question 1)



The target audience is 15-24 year olds, most likely the main audience will be males as the style (heavy metal, death metal, death core etc.)

The reason my magazine will be attractive to the target audience is that most magazines are sometimes have an overly colourful, colour scheme, my magazine will be attractive to the target audience which is “metal-heads” and “Goths” who will see the rainbow spectrum of magazines in a shop, and notice my magazine more as the dark colours of black, and red will stand out more. 



The colours will appeal to the target audience as it those two main colours are stereotyped to the sub culture of the "Gothic" style, the colours usually connate to darkness and blood which are themes related to sub culture of the occult ideal which are directly linked to in a derogative way isolating the younger generation and outing them as heretics to society - hopefully this magazine will give a voice to the ostracised generation.



Also the content will be written in an informal and profane style, which will entice the audience as most magazine don’t swear and talk much of drug abuse and alcoholism which a lot of stars endure. The fact that my magazine doesn't sugar coat the "emotional hell" the artists have went through will appeal to the teenagers growing up and wanting to know about the world that they've been hidden from as children; and hopefully learn from their mistakes.
