After having a good think about who I want my magazine to be aimed at I came up with the following;
My magazine would generally be aimed at people ranging from around 15 right through to the age of about 26, they will be both male and female. I think that this is a good catchment area and they will, at this age, all generally be looking for the same kind of thing from a music magazine. My 'general' reader would be, either male or female, fall within the age range of 15-26 and be 'well' into their music. They want to know who's in, who's out, what the latest bands are, reviews on upcoming albums, lists of gigs happening around them, they want interviews with their favourite bands and also, one of the big points, they want it weekly, and they want it at around £1.49 - £2.49 per edition. Generally, the male side of the audience would be watching films that are Comedy, e.g. Shaun Of The Dead however they would obviously like action films for example James Bond, and also films such as The Godfather. The female audience would be watching films such as Love Actually, Anchorman and also Step Brothers. I would say that generally the male audience would be shopping at places such as urbanindustry, wellgosh and karmaloop, however on the other hand I would still include shops such as Zara and H&M. For the female audience I would say that they would shop at places such as Topshop, River Island, Zara & Urban Outfitters. I believe that they would be looking pretty similar to the people that I have shown above, these are members of bands that I would want to be associated with my music magazine, Two Door Cinema Club, Bombay Bicycle and, below, Orlando Weeks, the lead singer from The Maccabees.

Therefore, this is what I will aim to give them. My audience will be both boys and girls, ensuring I get everyone's interests accomodated for. The magazine will be for the people at school who are into their music, want to know find out more about things they don't know anything about, and also people who attend gigs often, and want to find out info' that they can't find anywhere else - fan's questions answered by their favourite bands.




Tom. You stop being a teenager at 19. You need to be more specific, there are lots of different types of boys and girls and there not all into the same things. What sort of fashion, music, shopping, films etc would your audience like?
