Profiling Your Audience

I have created an image board to help identify the demographic profile of my target audience for the music magazine which I am going to produce. Looking at several magazines and analysing the type of audiences they appeal to, I have used this information and gathered together several images of what I believe shows my intended target audience.

I have used many images that relate or stereotypes a teenager for example their style, music, interests and expressions. I have used the typical images that the majority of the teenagers would be seen through such as the gadgets they use which gives them a sense of contact at all times through social networking. As well as that they tend to form in groups and I have therefore found many images that promotes their activities, their moods and what they want others to see them as.

In order for this moodboard to help me research my target audience for a music magazine I have used many images of the sort of genre's they all listen to instead of just one specific ones because there are a variety of different teenagers and therefore I have chosen to create a versatile genre for my magazine which will include most of the genre's and therefore will appeal to a much larger teenage audience.

The use of bright colours and energising or optimistic pictures connotes that teenagers want to express freedom and are full of life and therefore I have used this mood board to connote the type of personalities that could be shown through an individual for my magazine
