 NME has a similar target audience and appeal to the type of show that we are trying to produce. I could use the Artist feature in my magazine.

I think that the Audience of we love pop and the show that we are trying to create would both have similar traits.I could use the celebrity exclusive that this magazine uses.     

                                              

I think that this audience of E4 would also like James Bond. I like the way this magazine is layout and the way the features of magazine is done. I would like to do a similar thing to this in my magazine. 

                                                

This magazine has many features that I could use and that is aimed at a similar audience to E4. I like the way this magazine uses features like Gossip and Giveaways to appeal to the audience. 

                                                     

I like the way that the main person in this magazine is. The person is towards the the right. I would like my character to be a similar position.

                                               

Title of Publication- 

The Title of this publication is Doctor Who. This magazine is based around the show Doctor Who. This show is on the BBC and it is usually shown at 7.00pm. This edition of this show celebrates the 50 years that this show has gone on for. 

The Central Image- The Central image is of the current Doctor Who (Matt Smith). I think that he is at the front as he is the current Doctor and proberly plays a key part in the Show. Behind him is the two previous doctor. This could suggest that the two other Doctors play a less significant part in the "Day of the Doctor"

The Cover Line- The main cover line says "The Day of the Doctor". The font is large and it looks relevant to the Genre. I think that the font looked like something you could see in a Sci-Fi film. The Font is located right in the middle of the magaizine. This helps to draw readers attention. 

The Slogan- The Slogan for this magazine says " celebrating 50 years". The numbers are in bold. This is located at the top of the magazine. The slogan suggests what could be in the magazine for instance, some memoriable moments or hints about the Day of the Doctor show.

Competitions and Giveaways-  The magazine also features competitions and giveaways along the Gold side bar. 

The Real Target Audience- I think that the real target audience of this magazine is from the age of 13- 60. This show is on a public sevice broadcaster and it is usually scedueled around 7.  This is the time where families and most people watch televion. I think that this magazine is aimed at a slightly older audience than the Show. I think this magazine is aimed at people that are 16-40.

Barcode, Date, Price- The Barcode, Date and the Price are located at the bottom right. This is done so that people could view the whole front image and hopefully be atractted to it. A company would hope that somebody would view this magazine front cover and this appeals to them. If it appeals to them they would'nt care as much about price. 

Name Checks- This magazien also Name checks the two previous doctors, David Tennant and Matt Smith and an excluxive chat this magazine has had with them. However, I don't think that it is the stars that are selling this magazine. I think that the show is greater than the Stars and the show has more appeal than the stars do. 

Colour Scheme- The colour scheme of this magazine is black, gold and red. These are the three key colours in this magazine. I think that the Black goes well agaist the Gold. In addtion, I think that the Gold is used as it  is a celebratory colour and this magazine is celebrating 50 years.

Free items-  This magazine also giveaways some posters and some collectables with this issue. This would allow the person who is buying this product to have a sense of value when their buying the product.
