EVALUATION

My media product uses real media in many different forms, such as the idea of a music magazine and is developed on the idea to be different to any other music magazine. It also uses things like a colour scheme a unique title and fonts, which you would find on many other kinds of music magazine, and it is aimed at a target audience which other magazines would do as well to be as successful as possible.

My product represents different kinds of social groups in the way that it is aimed at a specific audience of people of any gender between the ages of 15-25, but to go into more depth it is aimed at people that like the specific kind of music that my magazine is offering, in more depth and it would encourage people to buy my magazine.

The media institution that my media product would be categorised in is a specific kind of music. It is in this because it has one main focus point in the music industry and that is RnB which has a large appeal to my target audience. The way that it would fit in is the fact that it has the unique ability to be aimed where they would be able to read about their favourite music artists.

The target audience that I would hopefully be appealing to is people of any gender between the ages of 15-25, the reason why I have chosen this is because it is a huge market to aim at, and lately these generations have shown a greater interest in music, therefore more likely to show some kind of interest in my magazine. I have also chosen this target audience because people between those ages have started to go to allot of concerts and festivals etc. and this is helpful because my magazine will have the dates of their favourite artists performing dates, meaning there is a higher chance that there would be higher attendances at these kinds of events.

I attracted the attention of this audience by keeping to a young styled magazine in the layout and the kind of fonts, I know this because I carried out a survey on what kind of colour scheme and what kind of font they would like to see on this particular magazine, which is good because they would feel that they would have some kind of role in the creating of this magazine. I also manages to appeal to my target audience by getting a picture of a popular artist and revolving the layout around him, and the fact that there is an exclusive interview with this artist would make them interested and want to move on and read the interview.

I have learnt the technologies of the product like what would appeal to my target audience like what kind of music they like and how to fit it in a rough target audience, what kind of schemes that they like to see on the front cover of a music magazine, what kind of music they like. What price my product should be valued at so that it remains informative and affordable, how often it should be till a release another magazine. And most importantly what the more popular artists there are today so that it would appeal to them so that they would be more interested.

Looking back at the preliminary task I feel that the progression that I have made is that my magazine stands out more in the sense that it sticks to a strict colour scheme. How I could make the magazine more popular, is by choosing things that the target audience prefers and to be ore ambitious by making the product appeal to a larger target audience.
