This graph by 'Statista' shows the monthly reach of Empire magazine in the UK from April 2019-March 2020. Here, it is evident that this magazine is incredibly popular with people 15+ (which is a very broad demographic). This graph also shows that more Men than Women engage with the magazine. In addition, majority of Empire readers are university educated, which shows how they have an affluent readership. 



My target audience 

Age: 16-25

Social class: Upper-middle market audience.

Interests: Coming of age/ indie/ romance / comedy and action film genres.






Here, it is evident that 'Empire' magazine use bold colours to gravitate the readers attention. Their unique colour palette makes them easily recognisable as a brand. For my 'Bowie' magazine cover I'd like to utilise  these similar elements.
