Plum line
'How does the magazine you have studied construct and reflect it's intented audience?'
Plum line is bright and attractive this makes is eye catching, it uses a variety of of colour. The title uses the same colours as plumstead manor so it's linking both the magazine and school together. In the right hand corner they have an image of the school anadvertisement of how the school is going to look after the referbishment . The front cover uses images as evidence to back up what they are saying, they include a section for every year from year 7-11, the advantage to this is that there is a variety of different information for different people as their are many different social groups at school.They target different age ranges ranging from year 7 to 1. The magazine includes topics such as performing arts, GCSe drama, music, politics, sports and literature to attract all years from year 7 to 11 so they can read the section that they find intresting and most appealing to them personally. The magazine is formal but not too formal as it's aimed at people aged 11-16 years and the audience is younger and tend to find slang/informal language more appealing as this is what they are used to. The text is formal and straight forward, the magazine is simple, not too complex as it's only aimed at children and it's crusial to not make the magazine to difficult for some readers such as the year seven's. The main purpose of this magazine is to inform the audience of activities taking palce through out the school, they also inform sudents about achievments. The magazine effectively constructs it's intended audience through the colour, font and images used.
