I commented on layout and design, target audience, use of pictures, use of colours and finally the selling quote. I am going to use all of these points when considering what my magazine front cover is going to include and who it is going to be aimed at.
Ideas for my Magazine Front Cover
- Target Audience - Females aged around 30+ or 40+, This would be aimed at a populas (demographic) audience.
- Genre - Fashion Magazine, (fashion for the older generation)
- Selling Line - 'How to feel young again'
- Visual Codes - I would use a picture on the front cover of a women within my intended age of my target audience, but i would use somebody well known - for example: Sarah Jessica Parker. I would make sure i chose a picture in which she looked extremely fashionable.
- Colours - I would choose colours that would show clearly that my magazine is aimed at women, for example: pinks, purples, whites and maybe blacks.
- Layout and Design - Font Style will be bold, Colour will also be bold for the writing. Corner Banner of maybe emphasising a cheap price, or maybe they receieve something free with the magazine?
- Language - I will make sure i use rhetorical questioning and quotations that will link to stories that could be inside the magazine. Persuasive techiniques i will make use of are alliteration such as: sexy, slim... etc. Another persuasive technique i will make use of is hyperbole to exaggerate the aim of the magazine. Finally, superlatives would be another good persuasive technique i would use, for example using 'the' instead of 'a', because people might think, 'oh another one of those...'
