1. As you can see from the responses I have gathered from my
survey, my target audience like to have freebies in their
magazines.
2. My target audience favourite freebie to get in a magazine would be in a vinyl,
and then closely behind was a CD, so I can see from these that my target
audience enjoy having physical copies of music.
3. The majority of my target audience like to see interviews with artists or bands as the
content in a music magazine. Reviews of albums and singles was also a popular
choice along with new music and bands. These will be elements I will include in my
magazine.
4. The majority of my target audience prefer a Vice style magazine front cover,
which is quite unconventional compared to the NME style front cover. This
will effect my design of my front cover.
5. A huge amount of my target audience enjoy going to gigs, with only one response
saying they don’t. This shows me that it would be advisable to involve a gig guide
in my magazine.
6. There was a mix of responses to my target audience’s favourite type of music. With a
large majority choosing indie music and reggae. I will try to incorporate both into my
magazine.
7. There were double the amount of male responses to my survey, which shows
that my target audience is predominately male. So my magazine will be
targeted mainly for males.
8. The large majority of my participants in my survey were in the age
bracket 16-19. Which is the youngest age bracket available, and may
show that some of my target audience are not of the legal age to go out
clubbing and drinking, which is something I will have to consider
when doing my magazine.
