Task 2:
Explain media language has been used differently to represent/attract the target audience-
Within the two magazine covers which are Top of the Pops and Mojo, they have so many differences. Within top of the pops the colour palette is very much colourful with pinks, whites, purples, reds and a little black showing us that they're target audience is female teenagers aged 10-16, within the mainstream audience therefore its target class is C-E within a British ethnicity. Whereas the colour palette for Mojo is white, black, grey and red which are all very neutral colours apart from the red showing us how the target audience is for older males aged 30-50, rock, soul and older band audience of a British ethnicity.
The masthead for Top of the Pops if pink, big, bold and glittery, the magazine has added a glitter effect onto the masthead to make it stand out more and to make the target audience attracted to it more. Within the 'S' at the end of 'Pops' is swirled to add more of an effect to the masthead as well as putting 'of the' in a circle full of glitter making girls want to pick it up and see whats going on within the magazine. However the masthead within Mojo is bold although its white with a back shadow effect behind the letters making them stand out on the white background. Through the letters 'ojo' in italics it has the writing 'the music magazine' in back, this masthead makes the magazine look clean and slick making the target audience want to pick it up because it would appeal to the older eye as there is not lots of colours going on and the magazine itself doesn't look too busy.
The main image for Top of the Pops is a major pop star, Jessie J, the image is a medium close up at eye level making the audience feel like she's looking at you and only you, her facial expressions are happy looking. As well as the main image theres minor images which are of other pop stars both male and female, all these images look happy and all together they have 6 minor images to give the audience more of an idea of about what the magazine is
