Evaluation question 5

To attract my audience on my front cover, I made sure that my masthead stood out. At first I had a font with quite thin letters, so making this wider made it stand out more, making it more aesthetically pleasing, which would result in a greater attraction Mentioning well known artists on the cover would also help to attract to fans, giving the magazine a bigger draw. Also mentioning such a large festival such as Glastonbury will draw in and attract to the audience. Putting an appealing photo on was key, so using an attractive model helped to relate to the audience. Also, using the shadow feature helped as it adds a sense of mystery, making people want to read on, attracting the audience. The unique selling point for my magazine was that not only do you get a music magazine, you also get pictures to a high standard, which have a very artistic feel to them.

In my contents it was quite similar to the style of Esquire, which might not be a predominant music magazine, but has elements that I wanted to incorporate into my magazine. Having a large page spread also will attract readers as they will be interested in some of the elements. 

On my double page spread, having that simplistic feel shoudl attract my audience, as some will be interested in art. Also the pose is similar to pop artists, so this my draw in another genre of audience. It is also fairly conventional for a music magazine, similar to a double page spread that Mojo or Q would run, making it fit in with the current market.
