I see my magazine being brought by people aged 15-20 but
most of them are expected to be male because according to the media, ‘only men
listen to rock music’. The stereotypical teenager is seen as a drug taking,
smoking young youth who like to cause trouble. My magazine challenges that
stereotype but doesn't avoid the other ones that are pushed upon teenagers, for
example, I have backed up the ones that say; they listen to music, watch
movies, are deep in technology and go to gigs. But I don’t see these having any
negative impact on the audience so I have chosen to highlight them and present
them to my target audience. I see my typical teenage reader being male and being a 'skater', the media believe that these types of teenagers would by a rock magazine such at mine. To the left is an example of the type of person that would be expected to buy my magazine.
As well as the things that are featured in my magazine I
would also have advertising that would appeal to my target audience. The main
advertisements would, of course, be music based but it would also include a lot
of new technology, this would include; Beats by Dr. Dre (headphones), IPod's
Guitar Hero, New phones, things that a typical teenager would be interested in. But it would also include other products such as food, skateboards and clothes as well s a few television adverts, because all teenagers do is listen to music and watch TV.My magazine is quite modern, so it essential that it keeps up to date with
everything that
is selling big in the music market. Because of the genre of
music it would be expected to have gig dates and posters within it, this may
attract a wider range buyers.
