MUSIC MAGAZINE AUDIENCE

The age of my target audience will be around the 16-25 year old mark. This is because I know more people around this age than any other and I know what their preferences will be and what they like. Also, these aged people generally have more spare time than others and also have more money to spend on things like this, not having the responsibilities of older adults and therefore more copies will be sold. The genre of my magazine will attract a massive age range due to the variety in artists but my particular magazine will target specifically 16-25 year olds.

AGE

My magazine will be mostly targeted at the male audience because the drum and bass industry is mainly dominated by males. This makes the genre of magazine more appealing to men and boys although it will be kept open to female buyers and readers. I am male myself and also a fan of drum and bass music so I know what I would like to see which will help me in the creation of my magazine.

GENDER

The occupation of my audience can not be pinpointed specifically but the types of jobs my audience may be undertaking are more working class jobs such as builders or electricians, for example. My magazine won’t be aimed at people working in higher class jobs such as management jobs, although certain people within that job area may decide to buy and read the magazine. The wider range of occupations my magazine caters for will hopefully increase the amount of copies sold. Students with jobs in places such as Cafes and restaurants, for example, will also be targeted.

OCCUPATION

Class EThis class is for students with a lack of income. They do not have the responsibilities of older adults and therefore rely on their parents mostly. I have chosen to target this class because I am classed as being in this class and therefore will know what they will be looking for. Also I will be able to call upon my peers for interviews and questionnaire results, as they are in the same class.
