  4. Who would the audience be for your media product? For my target audience I would see my magazine aimed at a younger generation, when looking at my magazine and then looking at figures from Q and NME magazine that I used as inspiration for my magazine, I was able to see that mainly 16-30 was the age range of the magazines roughly, I wish to put my target audience at 16-24, I feel that my magazine is for this age rage due to seeing that I know that my magazine wouldn’t appeal to mature older people due to seeing the figures of Q magazine and NME, also indie rock/indie doesn’t appeal to older people due to looking into detail of indie/indie rock history etc. I feel that my target audience’s social class would be more working class/middle class because if we look at the age of my target audience of 16-24, this means that my target audience would still be in education whether that be school/college/university and probably don’t get a lot of money if so they may get their money from a part time job or parents, or they may have started working but won’t have a very highly paid job due to not long finishing their education. The gender of my target audience I wish to aim at both male and female

  I feel thatmaybe putting in about a homosexual artist in my magazine this may aim more towards women due to women being more understanding maybe of homosexuals or more excepting, some men sometimes can be a bit okay but unsure of it slightly. The ethnicity of my target audience, stereotypically it would be white due to the idea of indie/indie rock social groups being white, but for my magazine I wish to have any ethnicity to wish to read this but I feel that people who may have a strong faith and more of a different lifestyle such as the Asian community may not wish to read or except my type of magazine so I don’t feel that my magazine would appeal to some people.
