Vype Houston magazine has many target audience similarities to mine.   The age range is the same for both magazines (high school students and their parents.)   Both magazines have the same audience as both magazines are focused towards high school sports in the local city.  The target audience is similar to mine because either gender could be interested in the magazine but, their magazine is more intriguing to both genders as mine is more for male genders.  Vype magazine markets/familiarizes their products through social media, website advertisements, they sell the magazines in convenience stores, and at the restaurant Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steak Burgers.  This magazine used various persuasive techniques to attract readers.  The first thing they did was put both genders on the cover to tell people that sport information about both genders would be included in this magazine.  They also put in a caption that there would be 5a and 6a ran...

Florida football Magazine has many similarities with their target audience to my magazine.   The age range is the same for both magazines (high school students and their parents.)  This magazine does have a wider audience because of how it is made by Herald and is focused towards Florida football opposed to local sports.  The target audience is similar to mine because either gender could be interested in the magazine but they are both more intriguing to the male audience.  The geography of my magazine and the Florida Football Magazine are different as my magazine is spread through the city opposed to throughout the state.  They familiarized their magazine by putting them in news stands and by putting ads in the Miami-Dade Herald.  This magazine used various persuasive techniques to attract readers.  On the cover, some of the captions say, "Guide to Friday Night", "2008 Reebok Florida Football Phenoms" and "Exclusive Profiles of 517 High School Te...

My magazine is mainly for high school students and their family members. This magazine is meant to be targeted at all genders because of how it includes sports articles about their friends (the athletes) and school.  My magazine is also focuses on having a local audience of anyone in Sarasota who is interested in high school sports and news. The income level of the audience of my magazine would be  medium to low.  This is because most kids in high school do not have jobs and the some that do are not making that much, as they are only part time jobs.  The education level of this magazine does not require a good education to understand/read.  This magazine is meant for people in high school and parents of high school students.  This would mean that the parents would have a higher education and the students have less than a high school degree.

On 2/7/2018, I am going to be attending the JV and Varsity basketball games to take more pictures.  Vincent is currently injured so I am unable to take pictures of him, so I will be taking pictures of Varsity Players such as Jack Duffy and Jayden Robinson.  I am focused on getting action shots of the players, including shots of them with the ball or scoring.  I will be sitting underneath our team's basket so I can get shots of them charging towards the hoop.  The JV game is at 6 p.m. and the varsity game where Jayden will be playing is at 7:30 p.m.  I have a feeling I will take some good camera shots I can input into my magazine.
