My first question was what were people’s favourite type of
magazine, 5/7 people chose Sport, I then researched the content in
a sport magazine and found out it is filled with information, this
will help me to include descriptive writing and images within my
magazine. I researched into music magazines as well as sport, this
allowed me to discover that music magazines are one of the most
popular bought magazine, this genre of magazine would fit better
for me.
4. QUESTION 2
I then asked what price people were prepared to pay for a
magazine, the majority of people had chosen £1-2, I will make
sure to put a fair price onto my magazine, however most
magazines include their price at the back of their magazines, so I
don’t think I will include a price on the front of my cover.
5. QUESTION 3
I asked how often people buy magazines, ‘never’ was the most
popular answer, however monthly and a few times a year were
also picked, therefore for the making of my magazine, I would
make it into a monthly issue to fit in with everybody's responses
6. QUESTION 4
As I want my magazine to be full with images, I asked which
images people usually prefer to see on a magazine. ‘Singers

included at least 2 different singers/bands images onto my
front cover. This straight away tells my readers that my
magazine will include a variety of singers.

asked what people preferred to read about in a magazine, artist
reviews and gossip stories came out as top, I will incorporate

realistic magazine and also make it interesting for my audience
to read.

Red and Blue were the most popular, I will take some of these

on the front page as this is the page people are first attentive to.
