Evaluation: Question seven

Evaluation: Question six

Evaluation: Question five




I feel that i was successful in attracting my audience due to the positive feedback i have from seventeen year olds. Although i haven't got a lot of response I've had some feedback which suggests interest and excitement. Such as 'Layout is great!' and 'I think it looks amazing!' It seems as if most of my friends have a Preferred reading, although the one example of Aberrant Reading was from a male friend who said 'doesn't really appeal to me' this is understandable due to the amount of female models and style. The audience seem to refer to the layout a lot, when speaking to them in person they said that it seemed a lot like a real magazine, and that you would pick it up off the shelf! 

The fact that most of my audience took a positive preferred reading was very pleasing as it means i have completed what i set out to do. The help i have had from my audience has helped me complete the final piece to a satisfactory level which responds greatly with my set audience.

      • Georgia Thomas
        I think it looks amazing! it appeals to me and I'm sure it would appeal to many more as it fits a gap in the market!
        • Danni Hughes

            Doesn't really appeal to me as it is not the sort of thing I would usually buy but it looks slick and professional I can imagine it being a success





            I used this banner also to attract my audience as i know they would like to have something they love up on their walls. A free gift inside my magazine which related to the kind of music my audience loves intrigues them to buy it.

          Evaluation: Question three


          Question 3

          What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?


          I feel my product will benefit from the distribution company ‘Frontline’



           
          I have chosen this distributer as I believe my magazine fits the usual conventions the distributor sells. Although my magazine doesn’t fit the usual mainstream category I still feel it will fit well with the distributor as it sells across a variety of places. This will enable my product to reach my target audience and maybe others. Frontline also offers a high level of marketing which will help my magazine by reaching more people.

          From my planning and research I found a specific target audience who I believe will shop in the stores Frontline sell their merchandise to. I will expect my magazine to be in small news agents and big supermarkets across Britain. This will help my magazine reach all my audience enabling them to find the magazine in most areas as it is convenient.


          Frontline also offer ‘multi-platform’ consumption. This fits perfectly with my target audience as they will be able to reach the magazine digitally, this will enable the audience to go out and buy the magazine or sit within the comfort of their own home. My audience will already use the internet for many different things, which makes this much more convenient and appropriate.

          VintageSound will be an independent company, this means the production and form of the magazine is not controlled by Frontline. This means that this partnership enables Frontline to distribute the product only. This makes everything a lot more expensive, but using Frontline as my sole provider it will mean that more copies of the magazine will be made which in turn, means higher levels of marketing.
