Evaluation Question 4

My target audience for my music magazine would be aged between the age of 16-20 years old. this is suitable as the price of my magazine is only £2.30 meaning it is affordable for my audience and is similar to the age range of NME and Mojo. The majority of my readers will be male but will also have a range of female viewers meaning I would have to make it suitable for both genders such as the content and layout.

Another thing to talk about my target audience is their music taste.  I based my music magazine around the likes of NME magazine and Mojo which contain mostly Indie/alternative styled music, rather than main stream music such as pop. From this I should expect my audience to also listen to this same style of music, here are some examples of what music they would listen to:


Finally something else I should take into consideration is the way in which my target audience will dress. The indie genre is mainly based around brands such as Fred perry, Pretty green, Adidas originals etc.. The genre its self is based around the Mod era so clothing pieces like the parka, Skinny jeans, Harrington jackets, Dr martens boots are very common within the genre.
