Who would be the audience for your media product?

The audience for my product will be teenage to mid adults aged around 14 to 25/30. It will be for both male and female emos, scene kids, goths and indie kids. This is because of the style of music my magazine is. It will be mostly metal, rock and punk. This ties in stereotypically with my audience. This audience would mainly buy clothes like converse ‘all stars’; colourful hoodies; skinny jeans of all colours and black t-shirts with things like dragons and metal bands on. They would shop in stores like ‘The Rock Collection,’ ‘Blue Banana,’ ‘Dead Good Clothing’ and other general stores like ‘New Look’ and ‘Debenhams.’ Stereotypically, this audience don’t like to be part of the crowd, they like to from their own crowd and stand out from the rest. This is why I think that bright colours are what they like to wear most. Another thing with my audience is that they normally like piercings but this doesn’t effect the whole ‘group,’ some like to have the odd one and some go to the extreme and have more than average all over their body. For example; neck, wrist, bridge of nose, inside of nose and around the mouth and lips. Many examples of this group and other social groups can be found at UK Tribes. Although people would associate females more with this fashion than males, there are actually more males than what most people think.
