Question 5: Draft

How did you attract/address your audience?

Audience Feedback

I made a group chat on 'WhatsApp' and asked some of my friends what they thought about my front cover and contents page. Here is some of the feedback that I have received:

My friend pointed out that I used colours well and that my colour scheme was good. He also said that this grabs the readers attention and the front cover and contents page in general, is aesthetically pleasing.

I didn't tell my friend about my target audience for this magazine, however he instantly noticed that this magazine is targeted towards young people as I have used popular trends that come from the youth culture and outlined them in my front cover and contents page. For example, the clothes that my cover stars wear.

On the other hand, my friend pointed out that I have put a lot of writing on my front cover and at his first glance he would not want to read all of it so I should keep cover lines in my front cover brief. My friend also said that I should make the headlines in my contents page clearer so that it is easier to understand what the page will be about without reading the full text.
