Questionnaire analysis

1) How old are you?

From this graph we see that half of the people I asked about a music magazine were between 11 and 16 years old. This may be biased but it is helpful as I will be aiming my magazine at this age group anyway and their opinion is valid to me.

2) What gender are you? 

For this questionnaire I made sure I asked the same amount of males and females so my own magazine is not gender biased. 

3) What is your favorite genre of music? 

I gave my friends and family the option of seven different genres to chose from so that I get an idea of what they enjoy reading about. 

4) How often do you read music magazines?

Over half of the people I asked do not read music magazines which may have heavily influenced their responses and they may have not thought about their answers much because they hadn't any comparisons to make from what they had previously read.

5) What do you consider the most suitable price for a music magazine?

I can clearly see here that my audience wouldn't be willing to pay too much money for a music magazine so when I create mine, I will keep the price between £1-£2. 

6) What would you be most interested in for a double page spread? 

For my double page spread I will most likely do an interview of an artist or band as that is what people want to read about the most.

8)For a magazine cover, what would you prefer?

When creating the front cover of my music magazine, I will keep the colour scheme differentiated as people seem to prefer a mix of colours. 

9) What do you consider the most important thing about a front cover to be? 

The people I asked to fill in my questionnaire seemed to think that all of these elements were rather important, I would agree in saying that the main image/model and the cover lines are the two most important things.



10) Out of these magazine front covers, which do you prefer?

I can see in this pie chart that people most prefer the second layout in my questionnaire, which is quite simple. I will be sure not to overload my own front cover with text when I have to create it because from this question, I can tell people don't like too much text.
