2. Question 1
• This question shows that the £2-2.99 choice has the highest
number of responses to it with 63.64% (7 responses). However,
36.36% of people were also willing to pay £3-3.99 for my indie
magazine so I could potentially make the price of my
magazine somewhere in between £2-£3.99.
3. Question 2
• For my next question, I asked people what they thought the
colour of my indie magazine should be. This came out with
36.36% for both the red, white and black colour scheme and
the red, black and yellow colour scheme. Due to it being
equal I will probably add both black and yellow along with
red and white.
4. Question 3
• For my next question I asked people whether they
thought my indie magazine should be formal or
informal. In this case, about 72.73% of people chose
the ‘formal’ response, which is why I will use it for my
work.
5. Question 4
• For this question I asked my respondents, which indie magazine
they preferred out of the options I had given them. In this way
Kerrang had the highest number of responses with 45.5%, which
I will take into account when making my magazine. However,
NME (magazine) was slightly less behind with 3.6.36% of the
respones and so I will most likely add elements of NME to my
indie magazine as well.
6. Question 5
• For this question I had asked my respondents whether or
not they would want more images, text or an equal
mixture of both. The responses I was given (as shown
above) show that 63.64% of my respondents thought
that I should have an equal mixture of both images and
text.
7. Question 6
• For my next question I asked my respondents to say whether
they thought my indie magazine should have more articles,
interviews or a mixture of both. In this instance 45.45% of my
respondents chose to have a mixture of both interviews and
articles.
8. Question 7
• For my next question I asked my respondents to say whether they
thought my indie magazine should have a simple or cluttered
layout to my magazine. 54.55 percent of my respondents stated
that they would like me to have a cluttered layout. However,
because, 45.45% of people wanted a simple layout I think I will go
somewhere in between these two responses.
9. Evaluation
To summarise the analysis of my questionnaire I will:
• Price my magazine at £2-£3.99
• Use a mostly traditional red, white and black colour scheme,
however I will also use the colour yellow as I think that only
using a traditional colour scheme would not fit the
explorer/reformer attitude of indie music.
• Write my magazine formally
• Base my magazine mostly on the magazine ‘Kerrang’ but I
will also use elements of the magazine ‘NME’
• Include a fair mixture of images and text on my magazine.
• Include a fair mixture of articles and interviews
• Use a relatively cluttered layout, but not too cluttered as
slightly less than half of my respondents chose to have a
simple layout.
