Above is a hyperlink to the survey questionnaire and results, the results
are helpful. There is a variety of answers, especially for types and genres
of music, this means that my magazine needs to be a multi genre (music)
magazine, there is a more or less even split between gender, this allows
me to make a unisex magazine. Most people that answered said that they
buy/subscribe to the magazines they are interested in monthly, due to
these results I will make my magazine a glossy magazine.
3. Interview
I interviewed George Goodwill from Malton,
Yorkshire, he is aged 17, he doesn't really read
magazines however occasionally picks one up, he is
very concerned with fashion. This is helpful to me as I
know that the people in my magazine need to be
fashionable, and be of a familiar fashion to people like
George, if they aren't it is likely my target audience will
not be interested in the magazine.
