my target audience

MY TARGET AUDIENCE

I have decided that my target audience will be the kind of people who do things just for the fun of it. I have always been intrigued by the fun side of teenages that are care free and individual, because they dont care about what other people say. My typical reader would be one of those individuals with fantastic styled hair that has probably been coloured every component of the rainbow, has their own brand of ideas on how the world should be, and have a complete mixture of taste in music. Taking my cousin as an example.------>

 In a recent conversation, she allowed me to use her image as an example for my audience.  In case of extreme individuals,  my cousin is mild compared to some of her friends. Her dress sense is quite masculine , hence the plaid shirt. She has multiple facial piercings which are not very clear on the image, such as her nose stud and lip piercing, and supports a stretched ear, as a statement of rebellion than anything else.

My cousin is the typical example of the 'Mosher' style of teenages(even if a little toned down in comparrison to others), into all kinds of music, ranging from Screamo and heavy metal bands, but is also a fan of Dubstep and various pop icons such as Nicki Manaje. She said, in a recent email-

'Well I am a really big fan of a day to remember. And slipknot. I tend not to look to people for a style icon and I just wear what I find looks good and unique. I vary from heavy rock to alternative singy bands and s**t so yeah ...'

Against this comment, many of her peers tend to follow brands rather than individuals, a popular one being Drop Dead.  I think, even in this short statement, she highlights her not very intrested attitude on much subjects in a cool/not cool kind of way.
