11. My music magazine will mainly be aimed at females between the ages
of 14-18 years old. Due to ‘pop’ being the most preferred genre I will
be producing a ‘POP’ magazine. ‘Smash hits’ is the preferred
magazine so i will be aiming to produce a magazine which is similar.
Although it is clear that ‘Music Mania’ achieved the most votes i will be
using ‘Pop hits’ as i feel it represents a pop music magazine clearly.
The slogan i will be including is ‘Discover great music’. As ‘Male
groups’ was the most popular option for the main image they will be
my main feature in my magazine. Due to ‘Catfish and the Bottlemen’
not being a pop band the most preferred band is one direction so i will
be including features on them along with smaller features of other
artists. Gigs and festivals were the main interests which would
encourage readers according to my results. 50% preferred 1st person
interviews from artists and bands so i will be including them in my
magazine.
