Magazine Genre research



This magazine was produced by National Geographic, they are linked to Disney and are a an American TV channel. This magazine focuses on traveling in an environmental perspective. National Geographic has been publishing magazines since 1888, since it was founded. It mostly contains information about geography, history, world culture, and science.

 I am noticing a pattern with the color yellow between magazines. I think that yellow is an important color because it captures a readers' attention to the contrasting colors. This front cover below has a lot of different colors, the blues, yellows, and whites take up most of the space. It is appealing to look at and makes me want to turn the page.

The Title is written very largely on the cover so the reader knows right away what company published the magazine. The largest letters on the cover read "Best" and "World". These positive words make others more interesting in turning the page. I would want to enlarge these important words on my magazine, so I can achieve a similar style to National Geographic.

Audience Engagement Post- Arizona Highways

Image
 The magazine Arizona Highways uses Twitter to sell shirts, books, and stickers. I like how the T-shirt can be for both boys and girls so that anyone can buy it. Although This shirt only comes in one size. It probably cannot be worn by everyone. If my magazine could sell clothes, I would want to sell baseball style caps with creative logos on the front. Caps can be worn by boys and girls, and they can be adjusted accordingly. Hats would be more efficient because they come in one size. Hats are normally not that expensive too.

My Target Audience

The audience my magazine is targeting is for any ages, but the people who may be the most interested in it would be teenagers. This is because most of the content is bases on clothes and activities that teens like to use and do. Although any age group would enjoy looking through my magazine, teenagers could get the most out of my pages. Specifically, this magazine is for teenagers that are traveling and want to be with the current style and fashion of 2020. Most of the content viewed at in my magazine is based around more feminine styles and activities. This magazine will probably draw the attention of young teens that like to be up to speed with the latest trends.
