Forth Evaluation Question

Who would be your target audience?

My target audience for my media product would be both male and females, aging from teenagers to people in their late twenties to early thirties. My target audience would like the punk or rock genre, listening to bands such as Bon Jovi, AC/DC, Aerosmith, Dire Straights and Guns N' Roses. The punk aspect of the magazine, creates a twist to the magazine. My product uses specific conventions and features to attract and appeal to my target audience. Although my typical target audience analysis shows the traits of a conventional male reader, my magazine is not gender specific. With a unisex audience you are able to attract a wider range of people. On top of this I knew that my target audience would be of a young age; therefore I matched the colours and designs accordingly. The younger generation likes bright colours that jump out at you, images that are lively and show individuality, as well as a design that is easy to read and delivers the information fast. So I designed my media product accordingly, making sure I abided by those necessary conventions.
