Used the bright purple in contrast with the grey scale to attract passing eyes.

Grey scale presents the issue as sophisticated and stylish, sometimes coupled with the Indie genre.

Outfit is typical of the Indie genre and so appeals to the audience who would probably be interested in fashion as well as music as they promote each other

Gave the fonts a stylish edging and colour to add to the ‘unique’ style associated with Indie

Model is prominent in the middle of the page, and although no eye-contact, draws the reader in.

The pose conveys musicality which is what the target audience would be interested in.

The texts are all clear, short and snappy to be easily read whilst scanning the shelves and also memorable and intriguing.

Emboldened masthead is like NME to attract a similar audience - Indie

I made the fonts slightly informal and clear so that it was easy to read and suited the adolescent generation that my magazine targets.

I used a large font for the numbers so that the audience could easily associate them with the pictures and the storylines.

I continued to use the models to convey the Indie theme through their outfits. The female in the bottom picture is wearing a simple dress with a floral pattern which is a summer take on typical Indie outfit, which is perfect for this Summer issue.

I also included another picture of ‘Heppell’ in an offensive pose to appeal to youths and in an Indie outfit.

Then in the picture of the duo, the clothes are slightly rockier to appeal to all aspects of the genre and therefore increase the consumer demographic.

The purple throughout the page continues with the house style, maintains the Indie ‘vibe’ and gives the magazine a sense of fun to further appeal to the adolescent target market.

The varied colour scheme presents the audience with a visually appealing double page inviting them to read the article.

The font I used was easy to read and conformed to the hierarchical sizes which addresses my readers appropriately.

Also, I used standard English and didn’t make the vocabulary too sophisticated as the magazine is aimed at the youth demographic and contextually the teenage generation read magazines for entertainment, but I did incorporate some as to give the article some professional connotations.

I also employed some expletives within the interview with ‘Heppell’ so it would appeal to the generation (my target consumer) who are most likely to use it casually.

I used the pull-out quote to attract the audience as well as it is only a snippet of the interview, therefore when read, it entices the readers to continue with the article.
