2. How often do you buy a music magazine? - Chart
This clearly shows the majority of people either buy a magazine once a week. Or

monthly production.

6. How much would you pay for a magazine (weekly
produced) - Chart
I will be charging £2.50 for my magazine due to the majority of people
are willing to pay this amount for the magazine. I am going to be
charging this amount for my magazine due to the target audience being

of my magazine

9. How many pages in a magazine? - Chart
I will have in the range of around 60 pages due to my audience, feeling that a good 60

audience felt this is a number in which they are happy I will try and stick to 60 pages but if
I need more than I will not take this into consideration.

audience in. I will use this to try and structure to the audiences approval. But all are mainly
just as important, but I will focus more capturing a great photo due the audience believing
this was the most important aspect.

cover? - Chart
The large amount of the audience would like to see a male on my front cover, so I
will take this into consideration when making my magazine. But if I can’t make this
a possibility then I will just use what is available due to the main image is not
really relevant and this question is seemingly a bit pointless.

Their favourite colour is blue this means that I will place part of my
magazine using this colour such as the masthead. A large number of people
have chosen purple, black, yellow, green. I will hopefully use some of these
colours for my magazine but non seem to have conations of rock so I don’t
know the amount that will be featured in my magazine. This helpful because
it allows me to study what colours are most popular to stand out to the
audience to try and structure my magazine accordingly
