Pop Magazine Contents Page Analysis H/W

Mizz Magazine is a childrens pop magazine with an intended audience of ages between 10 and 14. With a young intended audience, the fonts used are simple and easy to read. The layout is also simple and different colours are used to differentiate between each title and article. The bright colours used are usually associated with a young audience which is why they are suitable. The conflicting colours also help the page to stand out. 'Welcome!' is written in a curly font which gives the effect of it being handwritten. This creates a warm, welcoming feeling for the audience. Informal language is used to appeal to the young audience. If formal language was to be used, the audience would be bored and possibly not interested. Mizz Magazine would be more aimed at girls because of the colours, images and the layout. With disney images, girly colours, Zac Efron and curly fonts. This would not necessarily appeal to a young boy. The main images used are famous people that young girls usually love. The image of Zac Efron is suitable because he is from the popular, well loved film of 'High School Musical'. Young girls love Zac Efron so his image will attract a broader fanbase and even more young girls. The image of the young girl modelling inspires young girls to possibly want to be like her and have an interest in fashion.
