Impact on my work

Impact on my own work
Because of the audience research i have done i now know who my target audience is and what i need to include in my magazine which will appeal to my target audience. It has influenced certain aspects of my magazine such as the colour, for example i know that my audience will be young and "happening" which means they will want a fun interesting magazine to read so i will include fun colours that stand out instead of dull, boring colours. My magazine would be read by a large amount of teenagers so i chose the colours carefully so they would appeal to them. The models need to be young and suited to the "alternative" genre of music and dressed correctly for example maybe a leather jacket. Also i have considered the background for my pictures and i thought a brick wall in a street would be suitable as it gives the picture a urban feel and will appeal to a younger audience as most of the teenagers reading will still be living with their parents in a similar street so they can relate to the artist. It also shows that the artist has not forgot where he/she came from, where their roots are which gives hope to aspiring young artists reading. The language of the magazine will be modern using common slang terms which the young audience can relate with for example the word "cool", if i used over complicated words the readers may see this as uncool and lose interest.
