This is a front cover of a magazine that I’ve analyzed.
Reflection: In this task I have learnt that to make a good poster you have to think about your target audience in order for it to do well. For example a childish looking magazine would likely not be interesting to an adult, it’s human nature. This is because they weren’t intentionally made for them but made for kids because kids like childish things. This would mean that type of magazines target audience would be aimed at kids. I have also learnt that it has to be conventional so the audience know what to expect in the magazine. But if you make the magazine too conventional it will look like every other typical magazine which will make the magazine look boring, so you need to make it unique so it can stand out from others. Finally I have learnt that in a magazine, you shouldn’t think about what you think looks good but rather what the audience will think is good. This is because if the audience does not like what your ideas are then the magazine won’t be as popular as it could be. But if you give something that the audience will like, then it will provide much better results.
