School magazine research

For this magazine the target audience is for sporty people or for people who idealises them and want to be like them when they are older. Such as the woman on the left would be targetting young atheletics girls and on the right the man would be targetting men or young boys.

The woman on the left is representing young atheletic girls, showing that you can be successful if you try hard. Also for the woman to be smiling, it is very encouraging and makes girls want to be like her even more.

On the right the man is representing men and young boys who are more masculine and are into sports which involves more injuries. He is representing success and how you can become like him if you try hard enough.

The school may be suggesting that the success rate is very high and people achieve their dreams, and by having two successful people on their front cover emphasises successfulness of the pupils.

Both covers are appealing because it's simple but not plain, the font of the title is bold and simple, the colours are eye catching, also the colour of the font looks like gold off of a medal which emphasises their achievements and how great they are at what they do. Also their is little amount of text which makes it less busy and more appealing to the audience. The images are appealing to the audience because on both covers the woman and the man are showing their biceps and muscles, by doing this it shows what you probably have to do to follow in their foot paths and be successful. Also the pictures show them in their enviroment and performing their sports, such as the woman is running and the man is playing rugby, the woman is smiling which makes her seem more approachable and makes you think she loves what she is good at and encourages people to do the same. Both images are focused on them emphasises that the spotlight is on them.

The layout is appealing towards the audience because the man and woman are in the middle and the photo is big which shows that they want them to stand out and they want them to be the main focus with little amount of text to one side of them.

the front cover is successful because they have a secret meaning behind them to encourage younger people to become succesful and to follow them in their paths, the font is eye catching and the colour is relevent to them because of medals or trophies. The images are shot in a good enviroment which shows they are not posers and they are in it tp win which gives a good impression. The front cover shouldn't be improved because it targets the audience perfectly, the layout, images, font etc, are appealing to the targetted audience.
