Plan B: Magazine Articles

GQ Magazine:


GQ is a magazine that is targeted for young males. Its magazine is filled with women, music, models and news. Its targeted for the more younger adults like 18 - 30 this is because it is highly stereotypical  and is filled with music like rap and rock. Also because it has many women inside it.
This article is targeted for the strugglers as it gives a sense of escapism, plan b explains the rights and wrongs and also tells people that are in a youth of crime and anger that they can escape it and become successful.
This article allows comments via the social media platform Facebook, this will help create the build to the film a lot more viral and will help contribute to the success of the film.
This article has many narratives that make it interesting, he talks from shopping at primark and about rappers Jay Z and Kanye.
This article promotes the film and soundtrack which is a synergy for the article.

NME Magazine:


The target audience are listeners to rock music and are people of the urban rebel culture. This certain article targets his loyal fans, this article goes to mainstreamers as they will be informed about his music and keep up to date with it.
This article has a sense of diversion as he's telling the youth that he's hit the government, but they've made it worse for themselves in the long run. This article shows that plan b is a good person and that he's from the same background as these youths. It shows more of his personal identity and identification.
This articles promotes the film and soundtrack as a synergy but does not have any links, also doesn't have any option for comments,
The masthead "Plan B attacks David Cameron after last years riots' instantly creates conflict and attracts the rebel type audience NME has. Also him having a cigarette creates a negative image.
This articles narrative is telling us his journey as an artist and in the music industry. Although surprisingly he does talk about government and politics.
The synergy in this article helps promote his movie and soundtrack very well.

Mens Health Magazine:


This magazine targets men that are aspirers as they may want to lose weight and be like him.  The demographics would be ABC1 as they are interested in appearance.
This article uses diversion as it shows personal identity and how he dresses and how he lost weight, also by talking about society he attracts a wider audience.  It also shows a sense of escapism.
The article has a comment box but none are posted, this may be because the site hides them or that no one has commented? This leaves it like the print version.
The article has a clear masthead that will attract the audience.
This article has a clear sense of realism as its like a conversation, there are also photo captions of what he's wearing along with the price, this can attract the audience to see the expensive clothes he's wearing like the £30,000 watch.
The synergy for this article are the clothes he's wearing, his movie and soundtrack.

Guardian Interview:


The guardian targets middle to high class people that are quite judgemental. This target audience is aimed for 18-40 year olds of the ABC1 Spectrum.
This article gives the audience a personal relationship with the audience as he talks about his childhood and career. He talks about how as a kid he drew the worst drawings but his mum would always praise them, this made him want to keep getting that reaction. This allows the audience to relate to his experiences.
This article allows the audience to share the article on their social media through share buttons and tabs. This will help Plan B success.
This article uses narratives of his personal life along with the personal lives of his characters.
The synergy helps promote his film and soundtrack.
