Thursday 27th January

This lesson we learnt all about magazines and how they target their particular audience.
All media products whether it be magazines or tv etc, have a target audience which relates to their gender, age and class.
Magazines also use short headlines to 'hook' the reader in using 'AIDA' can achieve this.
AIDA means- Attract Interest Desire and Action.

I learnt that the magazines attract the audiences by using tone- the way they present it, register- development of ideas, 'visuals and copy' such as wordplay or bulletpoints.
I also learnt what 'colloquial language' meant, this menas that the magazines uses everday phrases that their target audience use and the language is more friendly and informal.
