Q4:WHO WOULD BE THE AUDIENCE FOR

YOUR MEDIA PRODUCT?

By Farhana Kobir

◦ The gender of my audience is both male and female this conforms to RNB audience as this is the usual target audience.

Some magazine such as XXL do target their magazine at the male gender more. However, I have aimed my magazine at both genders equally and so in way I have challenged the terms and conventions of real life RNB magazines.

◦ Ethnicity of my audience is a mix although RNB magazines mostly aim it at black people. I got this information from a task I submitted before where I had to analyse a press pack and from that I was able to figure out who my audience would be. By doing this I have tried to challenge terms and conventions of real life RNB as I’ve aimed it at a more multicultural audience magazines. The reason why black people are associated with RNB magazines which I am braking as many other ethnicities are in to the genre of RNB as much as black people and so I want to make them feel like the magazine is aimed at them too.

I personally believe that the same amount of people from different ethnicities enjoy RNB music and so I wish to make my magazine multicultural and therefore available for everyone. This is shown by all the different models I have used.

◦My audience have hobbies, such as going out socialising, being up to date with the latest gossip and trends. And may shop at designer shops for example, Gucci, louboutins etc.

The age group for my audience would be 16-30 the reason why I have such a big age gap is because many artist are around about 30 and so if they enjoy making RNB music at that age then I believe people age that age might also be interested.
