question 4

Who would be the audience for your media product?

_____________________________________________________________________________

After deciding what on what genre my magazine I want which is rap/hip-hop, I believe my audience will be people from the younger generation so from around 14-30 and mostly males. For this reason I will try and make my magazine match with the criteria and correct format and text which will suit this audience. This will be quite informal and some slang words could be used as I would want my magazine to seem as if it was interacting with the readers. Above is a picture which i have got from the Internet and i believe this is what one of the readers of my magazine would look like. The music taste that my perfect reader would have would be interested in RAP and HIP-HOP, because this is what my magazine is about. They would wear clothes from places such as FOOT ASYLUM or other shops that sell things like hoodies, snap back hats, hi-top trainers and other things. A typical reader would be a social person and rather go out with friends at night rather than staying in on their computers, watching TV etc. They would go to a bar/club or to a friends house to "chill out". They will have a laid back lifestyle, or a working class lifestyle as a lot of my magazine focuses on people like them, underground artists who are struggling to get a deal and struggling to keep their 9 to 5 job.
