Magazine and Audiences

Magazines are very popular media text.
Magazines have very specific audiences in mind and are clearly very different.
Despite sharing the same codes and conventions its obvious that a men's mag has a different target audience than a woman's. 

Magazine front covers always have strong generic elements:

price, barcode and issue number/date

a photograph directly related to the feature article

an iconic masthead 

various plugs and puffs on the front cover to entice the audience to purchase the magazine. 

a thematic link between the colours used and the month of publication.

Magazine front covers are carefully designed to attract the target audience and easily identified on newsagents shelves.

Magazines can be categorised into specific genres:
Lifestyle
Fashion
Music 
Celebrity 
Film 

Magazines have a very specific audience in mind e.g age gender sexuality 

Many ideologies (powerful ideas) will be present about the target audience on the front cover.

Women's magazines:
women's magazines contain many ideologies about femininity

Men's magazines:

men's magazines contain many ideologies about masculinity 

Examples of good house keeping magazines:

30-50 old women 
house wives
middle to upper class

Marie Claire

audience female 20 to 30 

class working class and middle class 

body image slim toned and powerful positive ideas.
