Question #2

How does your product engage with

the audiences and how it would be

distributed as a real media text?

I made sure to keep my product as attractive as I can so that my audience can get engaged with it easily. Colour and themes have been kept in mind so everything looks very catchy as shown in real media text. The title of the magazine is very edgy and attractive with big bold fonts, the fonts has been chosen with concentration to give the look exactly the way I had thought during my research.

All the pictures were taken from a DSLR which automatically catches attention and gives a professional look. I remained very carefully on who I was making the magazine for. I did this in many ways, I concentrated on how the models dressed (so the audience could relate to it), for example on the cover what the man is wearing completely gives the look of him being a designer. Other than that the self report I held. I also asked them questions about the price and many of them were satisfied.

Coming to the distribution it would be a self published magazine. Much research have been done keeping in mind all the costs. I have decided to make an online website to introduce the new product first, I think it will be a good decision to get their response and make them aware online first. This way I can research the advertisers and make the target audience believe what they want. I have also planned to make an application for my magazine where people can easily download the app and see or buy the latest issue like others magazines apps e.g. GQ, cosmopolitan e.g. on iPhone's and android.

Once its established my later plan is to sell out the magazine in stationery shops and others in large amount of copies or make some deals with the owner of the shop. The magazine would be for RS 230/-, In the shop, the magazine should probably be packaged in plastic so that people don’t go through it there but rather buy it. I chose this amount because its very affordable unlike other fashion magazines which are very expensive and people prefer too see it online rather than going out and buying it.
