exam question
Saga magazine, on the front cover of Saga magazine there is an image of Michael Caine an elderly actor. The image of Michael Caine is an important one as it is the first thing the audience will notice, and its job is to attract the audience. This is possible with the use of Michael Caine as he is a famous and well established actor, this means that people who may not usually purchase saga may do because they are fans of Michael Caine and his films.
The audience can also identify that there will be an interview inside the magazine featuring Michael Caine, because they show a quote from his interview on the cover.
De to the colour of the background being plain white it means that the audience primarily focuses on Michael Caine and not on what is going on behind him
Along the top of the magazine they have wrote that Saga is the UK's bestselling monthly magazine, the statement is a fact which lets people know that the magazine is already a successful one. There is also a website address present on the cover which shows that Saga magazine also has a website like many other magazines and news papers such as the Sun.
The layout of the magazine cover seems like it is all centred around Michael Caine.
all of the articles on the cover suggest that the magazine focuses on elderly people i.e Ageism and the BBC, however although the primary audience appears to be an older one the magazine is also targeted at a younger audience as well.
The language used isn't advanced and would mean that the magazine would be targeted at a large range of audience from different social classes.
GQ magazine, on the front cover there is an image of Clint Eastwood as on the Saga magazine this image of Clint Eastwood is the first thing that the audience will notice and is used to attract them. Clint Eastwood is a famous and established actor which means that his fans may buy this issue of GQ magazine even if they do not usually purchase the magazine.
The layout of the magazine cover shows that everything is situated around the primary focus who is Clint Eastwood.
the articles in GQ magazine means that you can identify their target audience as primarily males between the age of 20-30, this is evident with the headline "cars, clothes, food, music, gadgets" although women can also be interested in these things they are primarily the thoughts of a modern day male. The reason you can identify that GQ has a younger target audience than Saga is because of its use of language and words such as "badass of the year".
GQ magazine also has a website as well as an iphone app this further extends their Target audience.
GQ magazine also uses basic language which means they are targeted at people from a large range of social classes.
The mode of address for GQ magazine seems a lot more direct than that of Saga magazine, this is shown because Saga magazine features lots of interviews where as although GQ magazine also features interviews it also has articles giving tips targeted at the audience.
The audience can also identify that there will be an interview inside the magazine featuring Michael Caine, because they show a quote from his interview on the cover.
