Front Cover Third Draft

With this redraft I really wanted to brighten up the piece. I used to tones and brightness tools to brighten up the main image, and gradient to make the background much more interesting. I remade the plug and rearranged the bottom half of the cover. The changing of the colour scheme was to liven up the piece, as the colours were too solid, and now this with gradient tool it looks a lot smoother. I also used the slanted text which I used for my contents page, this was to keep consistence within the magazines style from page to page.

Contents Page, Redrafted

With this redrafted contents page I spaced out the contents itself a lot more and spread it about the page to add it the pieces youthfulness it now looks much more appealing to a young audience. I also changed the colour scheme of the text, however this also meant I had to change it on my redrafted front cover.

Social class & demographics

·        Social class & demographics

·        To state which social class you will be aiming your magazine at.

-To state how you will adhere to their needs

-To decide on the price of the magazine

-Understand what free gifts/ prizes they would like

-How the social class table will help you with your feature stories and target audience. 

My magazine will be targeted at a lower class audience, it will use quite a lot of slang and simple  language, this will also mean that the price of the magazine will be relatively low for a monthly magazine at £3.49. Though this will mean that the physical quality of the magazine wouldn't be as good as magazines like Q. But it will be affordable for my audience of low income teenagers.

My magazine will include free gifts like posters and smaller magazine about fashion or other interests of young teenage girls.
