My main artist is in the centre of the page which shows that she is superior and is the main image, also she has her hand on her hip which shows a sense of control and also her body language suggests a bit of arrogance and confidence about her. Also I have subverted typical stereotypes of R n B being mainly men, with my female artist. My target audience were both males and females in the region of 15-20, I used the dark blue because it attracts males and females, also the use of red attracts both genders. My artist is wearing a red jacket with lots of jewellery, the red connotation gives suggestions that she is dangerous but also love and passion as well. My artist is looking directly into the camera which gives a direct address to my audience which draws in the reader in to buying my magazine.

The main way I attracted my audience was through the use of direct address in all my pictures my artists are looking directly in to the camera. Also I have used a variation of camera shots; mid shot, long shot, close up.

Another way in which I attracted audience is the use of variety of artists, I did this through using images of them also by noting them in my front cover to appeal to a wider audience.

My poses were crucial when taking my photos, I used conventional manners when I was doing them, so the poses are conventional also they help sell my magazine, the front over photo is of my artist looking dominant and confident also she stands out from the page, which draws the reader in.

In the contents my main artist Is showing what she does best which is what the audience would to see, her in the studio singing, also it looks very authentic due to the setting of the photos.

Poses, Artists, Photos and How I attracted my audience

In my magazine I have used a variety of language devices; alliteration, superlatives and a rhetorical question. I used these devices to engage the readers attention. Use of superlatives such as exclusive this is an effective way in which to make the reader buy the magazine

Another language device would be alliteration because it puts emphasis on the sentence or the phase.

I used freebies because from my research in my questionnaire the responses were that it would persuade my age range to buy the magazine if there was an extra incentive to do so. I decided to use a free cd, with a cd they can keep the songs for life with also the option to take the songs off the cd to put on there music devices.

This is my puff, we used this because it sounds simple and very effective, we believed the more simpler it was, it would be the most effective. By saying our magazine is the biggest suggests it has more content and information than other magazines and the best connotes that it is the best magazine for the reader to buy for there needs. Also there is a use of alliteration with the use of the B’s.
