target audience

I think i was able to target my audience effectively through my double page spread article through a number of ways. I was able to target my magazines young demographic by having the simple, easy to read sub-headings which provides clarity because they separate out the answers and makes it easier for them to identify what question and its corresponding answer that they are most interested in reading about. This is effective as teenagers and young people in general have short attention spans so using red sub-headings makes it easier for them to read and identify and so will become more attracted to this magazine.

I also targeted my magazines audience by including interesting questions that they would want to see asked to new and upcoming bands, as the questions reveal information about the band that they wouldn't have known before and they might be interested to know the life and story behind a new, hot band who they could relate to and potentially become a fan of.

I was able to target my band's target audience through the response of the band itself. Using words like f*****, mental and vodka, adds to the explicit nature of the band which is intriguing to indie rock fans as a lot of indie rock bands are open and explicit in their approach as its seen as rebellious and cool and so therefore indie rock fans would be more enticed to read about my band because they adopt the same cool, explicit approach. I further targeted my band's target audience by including vital information about my band. This would intrigue them as any indie rock fans who like the look of the band but don't know who they are would probably want to find out about their background, their opinions and their album so that they can get to know the band and maybe become and this would be particularly effective with any indie rock enthusiasts who are looking for cool, new indie rock bands to follow. My magazine gives them this opportunity as they feature the newest and hottest bands from all music genres and my band through their attitude, their opinions and their explicit nature help target their audience as well.
