Research for evaluation 5


Evaluation 5: how did you attract/address your audience?

On my front cover I have done my masthead big so that it attracts the audiences eye. I have also put sell lines such as ‘Exclusive news’ to catch the readers attention. On the bottom of the front cover I also have more sell lines such as ‘Free’ and ‘Plus. The last thing I included was question ‘Are all time low doing an EXCLUSIVE tour?’ to get the reader thinking and making them want to read the magazine to find out.

On my contents page I have used one large image, a few smaller ones and also the free posters included inside which will draw the readers attention in to the magazine. Another image I have used is a screen shot of the double page spread which will catch the readers attention and make them want to read it. I have used logos such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram as these will draw attention to the reader as my target audience are around the age that use a lot of social media websites. I have again used a question ‘Are they splitting up?... Will this be their last tour?...’ on top of a picture of ‘Mania’ this will then attract the readers to make them want to read on.

On my double page spread I have used one large image which will get the readers attention straight away as it has a big bold question underneath ‘Are mania splitting up!?...’ with smaller images underneath of them rehearsing and having fun, by having this and catching the readers eye it will make them want to read the ‘exclusive’ interview to find out all of the latest news. On the bottom of the page it says that there are ‘New exclusive interviews in every issue’ this will make the audience want to go out and buy it so they have all of the latest about their bands they love. Also on the bottom there is up coming tour dates, with all the dates and arenas so this will give the audience more information so they know when and where the concerts are, and it links to the front cover as there is a chance for them to win 6 tickets for the tour, so if they have entered the competition they have a wide range of places they could go to and this attracts the audiences attention a lot.
