Evaluation Question 1 - Part 2.
1. Images
Much like popular music
magazines, my magazine
frequently uses images to attract
the eye of my target audience. The
use of images shows the audience
what will be in the magazine and
from this they can decide whether
or not they will purchase the
product. Each image is relevant as
they show my featured artists and
they link together with the text on
the page.
2. Masthead
Following usual media conventions, I
have included a contents page
masthead that uses the same text
and colours of my front page, this
makes the transition from the first to
the second page seamless and flow
well.
3. Editor’s note
Another frequently used convention in
music magazines is to incorporate an
editor’s note. This feature allows the
target audience to understand the
thoughts of the person that has edited
the magazine that they may be
purchasing. It is also a technique that
creates synthetic personalisation by
befriending the reader without actually
knowing them. The informal register
used in the note will appeal to my
target audience as it is easy and fun to
read.
4. FeaturedImage
My featured image (or studio shot) follows
similar conventions to popular music
magazines in the way that my subject is the
largest item on the page, thus catching the
eye of my target audience. The subject is
leaning against the side of the page and
looking rebellious in her pose; this will be an
attractive photograph to my target audience
as teenagers are stereotypically care-free
and this will relate them to my image.
5. Articles
The articles in a magazine show the
reader exactly what is included in
that particular issue, my magazine
has developed this convention in
the way that it includes a small
section of text under the article
heading that explains a bit more
about that article. This, I feel,
allows the target audience to have
a better idea as to what they will be
reading about.
6. Date and Issue
number
The date and issue number of my
magazine has been placed in the top
right corner of my contents page, I
have done this as not to distract the
potential reader’s attention away from
the contents of the magazine however
it is easy to locate if it is being looked
for.
7. This is the double page spread of
my music magazine.
8. Pull Quotes
I have challenged typical media conventions with my
pull quotes in the way that rather than incorporating
a boarder and changing the font style, I have only
changed the size and colour of the quote when
compared with the rest of the article’s text. I have
done this to create an easy flow when reading the
article and feel that it has worked well as it still
stands out as a pull quote.
9. Article
The main article of my
music magazine takes up
one full page and part of
the adjoining page, which
is not an unusual
convention of music
magazines and this shows
the reader that the article
is important and worth
reading, I think that this
would appeal to my
audience as they have a lot
of interest in music and
will enjoy to read about it.
10. Main Image
The main image of my double page
spread follows regular media
conventions as it covers nearly a full
page, this links to many of Q
magazine’s articles as they use this
convention also. The image shows my
subject dressed up formally, which is
stereotypical of celebrities thus
making my magazine more
believable. My subject is a youthful
looking girl and this will appeal to my
young audience as they can relate to
this.
11. Headline
The headline of my article is the largest piece of text
on my double page spread, this is so that it is the first
thing that my target audience will read and this will
inform them as to what the article is about. It has been
placed at the top of the page so that my potential
readers will read this first. This is a typical convention
of music magazines.
12. Tag Line
The tag line of my article is the second largest piece of text
on my double page spread, which is a normal occurrence of
music magazine articles as it serves the purpose of making a
transition between the large text to the small text so that the
target audience will read them in the correct order. I think
that my target audience will be attracted to this tag line as
they are young and will appreciate the message and advice
that it is giving.
13. Images
My double page spread incorporates some other
smaller images as well as the main image, I have done
this in order to show my readers more about my
featured artists. I have dressed my subject in
outrageous clothing which will appeal to my target
audience as young adults stereotypically dress in
outrageous clothing therefore my readers will be able
to relate to this photograph.
