Evaluation Question 4

4 - Who would be the audience for your media product?

As I have said before, the age of my target audience is roughly between 15 and 30. This range may seem a bit wide especially considering this age group is during the stage of the most developing a person will go through throughout their life. But I want my magazine to attract all youth which can range into the late 20s. I based my pricing around this as I believe £2.50 is inexpensive enough for a student and young adult to afford regularly. My target audience would most likely be slightly dominated by males but it would be aimed at both boys and girls. As my magazine is a rock magazine I am expecting my audience to be into rock. I can also imagining my audience being musical through playing instruments such as the electric guitar. As my audience are young, I expect them to follow rock artists and bands perhaps on social media or just through magazines. As my magazine ranges from indie rock to heavier rock, I cannot establish exactly the type of person who would read my magazine. This is because indie rock in particular is becoming even more popular amongst the A and B socio-economic groups. Those in my age group are still young and would be much more interested in festivals than any other age group. Festivals will be a good topic for my magazine to use because it will interest the readers and provides them with what they want to read.
