Example reader

Since my chosen genre is such a wide genre, it is almost impossible to pinpoint exactly how a typical reader may look, so I have given a couple of examples:

The first is a rock fan who would be more interested in the more aggressive genre of rock, such as heavy metal and screamo. He demonstrates a typical rebellion image with long dyed hair and a lip peircing.He appears to be somewhat niche, since he does not dress or appear to be of the "mainstream" demographic.
He would be more intrigued towards the heavier bands mentioned, such as Rise against and Radiohead since he seems to follow their conventional style.



The second is a less "extreme" rock fan. He bears an appearance which is between the previous example and the general mainstream style. He would listen to the lighter rock such as hard rock and indie rock.He would feel more inclined to read about the bands such as airbourne and Placebo.


They may both be interested in the articles mentioned in the contents pages and want to know more about them, such as upcoming gigs and other mentioned bands. The cover page stands out as a rock music one based on its layout, font and style. They may also be intrigued by the promises on the cover "prizes, competitions, posters".
