The age of the audience- teenager+
The gender- is mainly for male
The social grade- C1
ethnicity- United kingdom
interests- sells for £4.99 an issue
The masthead:
The word in the masthead is MOJO. is covered by a singers face which is in my opinion is inconvenient due to the fact you cannot see what the title of the magazine is although the writing is in bold font but you cannot see this. The colour of the masthead is white so it creates a bold presence and it stands out on the blue background. The colours attract the audience because it stands out although i think they could have chosen a bolder colour.
Colour pallet:
The colours within the colour pallet is yellow, red, orange, white, grey, blue and black. These colours connote because they are all bight and bold colours to make the magazine stand out to the audience. These colours draws people in because they are bight and vibrant and the colours represent the audience as a fun audience.
Layout:
The layout of the magazine is a stylish yet fun and outgoing, the words are big and take up a lot of the page. This connotes the magazine content as a fun and outgoing sources and information within the magazine and it isn't a heavy or factual magazine.
Images:
The main image is a close up shot of Dave Grohl as he is the mail focus of this issue. The mies-en-scene in the image is a casual outfit and the lighting is very harsh on his face so you can see how he looks and his facial expression is a very serious yet kind of a smile look. The main image attracts the audience because it has a picture of a famous singer on it. There is 2 other images on the cover and the 2 other images are both long shots and one of them shows a man singing on a stage whereas the other one is of peoples hands and arms at a concert. The minor images attracts people because it shows people having a good time and makes the magazine seem more interesting.
Teasers/typograohy/lexis:
The language on the magazine is quite informal and quite simple as it uses number instead of letters as you can tell by this quote from the magazine cover 'Nirvana reading '92' '25 years on the survivors speak'. The language tells us the content of the magazine is quite simple to read and easy to understand. The punctuation on the cover is rather poor and simple as you can see by this 'The songs that saved his life...' this could attract readers because its easy and simplistic to understand.
Other features:
On the cover is some other types of writing, a bar code, date and issue number. These features aren't very big because it would take the focus off the main image and main features and the audience would prefer to see the main focus' rather than those little features who the average person doesn't take any notice of.
