2. Here are the results from my questionnaire . I asked a series of nine questions and gave my questionnaire out to 1-0 people all ages between 16 and 18 year old and to both genders. This was to see what people are interested in and to give me a clear understanding to what I need to be included and expected in the design and context of my music magazine . Here I have I have charted the information to use for my magazine design.
3. As we can see from the results of question one , many of the participants seletected indie to be there most preferred genre of music . However even though indie was proved to be the most popular , pop was chosen second and I think creating a pop music magazine would appeal to a wider range of audience.
4. From the results of question two , we can see that when purchasing a magazine most people are attracted to the main cover stories . This result is extremely useful for my research as now I know what people look for when they are going to buy a magazine . The cover star and pictures are also important factor when attracting buyers as we can see from the results.
5. From the results of question three I have found out that most people purchase a magazine weekly . Furthermore monthly and every fortnight is also a popular option . This makes is seem that people do buy magazines as no one selected never and buy them on one or more occasions and so I will be making my magazine to be published weekly or monthly.
6. From the results of question four the participants most popular choice was the price of £1-£2 which is the cheapest price I selected for the questionnaire . Some others choose £2-£3 as their budget . For my magazine I will be selling the produce for £2 as I think it’s the best reasonable price for consumers to pay .
7. From the results of question five I found out that most people would like to see information on the latest tours and festivals rather than fashion or horoscopes .This information will help me with my further research as now I know what everyone prefers to be included in magazines.
8. I asked this question because I wanted to find out what my target audience age range would be. From the results of question six , most people are 16 years old and 17 so I would like my magazine to appeal to younger people who are older than 15 but not in their 30’s so it is quite a mature buy young and fresh magazine.
9. From these results I can see that when reading a magazine many participants would like the top 10 music singles to be published in each week and also new artists that will become popular . These results have helped my understanding of what readers like to see in music magazines.
10. I asked this question to see what artists are the most popular at the moment , from the feedback I received rihanna , lady gaga and the killers where their favourites and the moment. The killers was chosen by five people which is half of the participants I asked with also rihanna being chosen by three people. I think this question is extremely important as knowing this will help me to choose what genre of music I will be choosing for my magazine and to what to base It on.
11. The last question on my questionnaire was the most important in all of my research . When asking out of the names I put forward which one would be appropriate to be the name of my music magazine most participants chose “Replay” to be the name . I will use this as my name because people have chose it out of four options and I also think it will work better than the other three names.
