Evaluation question 4- Who would be the audience for your media product?



Media evaluation question 4 from zachsmythe25

Who would be the audience for your media product?

For my magazine to be successful, it is vital that we establish a specific target audience that I believe my magazine will appeal to in particular and the demographics that we believe would enjoy the film the most through factors such as relating to the photo sand fashion. We believe that the main demographic who would enjoy this magazine are males and females aged between 13 and 28 years old. I chose to pursue and attract the teenage audience because I am a teenager, so this makes the concept of the teenage audience easier to understand as I can relate to it my media products target audience is aimed at teenagers but it wasn't restricted to only teenagers. However I felt that that the elements of my magazine would be most suited to people within this categorical zone. geographically, my audience would be from my magazines country origin- the United Kingdom

why are they are attracted
why are teenagers so interested in this music genre? I am referring to the uses and gratification theory.One of the major reasons why Hip-Hop is so popular with young people, is because of its  association with fashion and other elements such as dance and partying, two activities teenagers take great joy in doing. Furthermore, a lot of the hip hop artists are young, so I applied this to my magazine creating a sense of realism



Feedback
I asked my friends on what they thought about my magazine  I got feedback from my target audience so that I could make further improvements and adjustments if I needed to. this feedback allowed me to identify my magazines negatives and act upon them in my next production. with the feedback, I concluded that although my magazine was quite good and attractive, there were minor changes that  I could have made so that the magazine`s quality is improved overall

How I attract them
 Although, my magazine is somewhat different from a typical hip hop magazine, i used media conventions so that I can attract my target audience. I used teenagers in my photos to attract them so that the audience find it easier to relate to. In most of the photos I used, there were a mix of races, for example I used a afro-british person on the article page, but then used a white british person on the contents page. I used aspects of each race so that i could attract a larger audience.
