RE-SUB Content Checklist


This is my re-submission for my content checklist.


Question
Evidence
Has this been met?
Selection of Material
This article includes all the appropriate and right information for the target audience which is women aged 16+. The magazine is lifestyle, therefore this makeup interview is throughly appropriate and readers would be interested in this interview and would be a hit with the target audience as they love reading about makeup and the new trends. Readers also love reading articles that celebrities or people who work for a professional brand are incorporated in to it because they think they will look or be like them. Therefore, the target audience would want to read this article as it fits the criteria of a lifestyle subject. The material within the interview is all relevant and appropriate. There is no unnecessary information in it.

YES the article has been selected very appropriately, therefore this has been met.
Audience Appeal
This article would appeal highly to its target audience, which are women 16+ for many reasons. One because it is a makeup article and women of that age group are massively intrigues in makeup and its extremely popular with women. Also, the article talks about how to 'contour' which is a new trend therefore readers will be intrigued to find out about 'contouring'. Likewise, as it is coming into summer and most women love knowing different tips and tricks, there is a section on summer products!
YES it fully meets the target audience's needs.
Relevance
In this article, all the information is very relevant and to the point of what we were asked to do, which was to product a double page spread for a lifestyle magazine. The content in the article is correct for a lifestyle magazine as it is make-up based. If this was my article, I would suggest very minor sentences to be taken out for example, "as I have oily skin so I never miss this step out" I personally think this is unnecessary but other than that this article is highly relevant and does not have any waffling or repetition. As it isn't an extremely length article deleting sentences is not necessary however if it needed cutting down that would be what I would take out. All the content was relevant for a lifestyle magazine as it was based on makeup which is popular within the target audience of 16+ women.
YES the text is relevant. However, I have very minor suggestions of sentences that should be taken out.
Accuracy
This article is extremely accurate because all the product names and products are real products, the prices of them are all real and accurate because you can compare them to the prices on their website. The other information and tips and tricks are all true also because they are someone opinion and own opinion, she is a "professional make-up artist" and has "had plenty of experience with MAC" which is a extremely successful business therefore women will believe and admire what the article says as its coming from a reliable source. There are no mistakes in the text.
YES all the content of the article is accurate.
Balance
The article is very balanced as it is someones opinion. Not someone anybody opinion though, she is a professional make-up artist therefore she is a reliable and responsible person therefore she would only state what she feels in good and she wouldn't lie or make up random information. Also, because the whole article doesn't just talk about one product, it varies and talks about a variety of different products along with the professional make-up artists own tips and tricks. Also, it mentions not just products, but how to apply the products which gives a balance to the article and wouldn't bore the readers. The audience will want to read on to find out how to apply the product as the application process is after the naming of the product. This keeps the readers intrigued.
YES the text has a good balance and is not bias as it is someones opinion.
