Thursday 25th With Louisa

Within the course of the lesson, we got through quite a bit of work.  To begin with we did an intro to magazines & consumer lifestyle magazines of  where we discussed how some magazines cater for particular types of people.   
We then looked at sub-genres, were we put various magazines into categories.  For example, in my group were looked at "Okay" which we said was a woman's weekly, which catered to all ages but more likely to be read by someone who has the time of the day.  In addition, we did audience profiling on the magazine which was us making assumptions on who our typical reader will be. We assumed that our typical reader would be between their early 20's to 40's, and would probably do clerical work.
