3. Target Audience
Sixth form students will be the main target of the magazine, so will be tailored
to them by having content relevant to them and images that will be of familiar
sights, for example the Sixth form building. I will make the layout clear and
consistent so that it is appealing to the eye with coherent colour scheme that
relates to the colours already used commonly by the school.
The design will be kept very general as it must appeal to the wide audience
within the 6th form, so I will not overly focus the magazine towards on particular
demographic of the 16-18 range. Appealing to particular interests could be
done in the magazines contents rather than the cover and then shown through
the contents page, for example a feature on sixth form Art work for the students
interested in Art.
