Result of Questionnaire and
analysis:I am working on creating a car racer magazine ,and as a part of my
preliminary task I distributed this questionnaire to 25 people.
The 20 of the participates were male and rest were females
(The male are always more interested and involved in car
racing)
About 60% of the participants showed their willingness to buy
racing magazine and more than 15% are involved in various
kind of car racing platforms(formal or informal). This survey
proved very helpful for the designing of the cover page for
my magazine. More participants were interested in bright and
permanent colour and also help me to identify a fair price for
my megazine

7. RESEARCH REPORT ON SIMILAR PRODUCTS
This part of research was bit troublesome because If we talk about Pakistan there no particular
magazines are present here on related topic currently so I had to take photos from internet and that
helped me a lot. I searched alot on internet on international magazines that are been published on
car sports and racing and was inspired by these two cover photos and took idea for my magazine
from these.
‘’STOCK CAR RACING’’ CAR RACER
MEGAZINE
‘’NASCAR ILLUSTRATED’’ CAR RACING MEGAZINE
These magazine follow certain convention, Masthead is placed
on top left corner of the cover page, main pictures are full shot
of the racer in action.

8. PICTURES TAKEN FOR MAIN
TASK:Following are the pictures I did not use in my
main task:
These pictures were to large for my Main task, These were
quite good pictures but sadly does not seem to me like an
action shot.In the first picture the feet is hidden so that was a
bad picture, and In the third picture the racer is hidden so no
point of that picture to be any where in my magazine.

9. Following are the pictures I did use for my MAIN
TASK:
I want to use these pictures due to number of reasons. The first two are good action
shots,with approiate angles. They also help in adding energetic feel to the final product
which Is something that I personally want to achieve and thought it is important since it is
featuring a car racer. The last closeup picture of the star in his home, which gives the
viewers an insight into his life.

10. REJECTED PICTURES FOR MY MAIN
TASK:
I SHOWED THESE PICTURES TO MY FRIENDS FOR THEIR FEEDBACK AND SUGGESTED THAT NOT
TO MAKE MEGAZINE BY USING THESE PICTURES,AS YOU CAN SEE THESE PICTURES ARE NOT
ATTRACTIVE AND YOU WANT DAYLIGHT/ SHINNING PICTURES FOR YOU MEGAZINE TO ATTRACT
PEOPLES FOR BUYING YOUR MEGAZINE INSTEAD OF OTHERS AND THIS CAR IS ALSO NOT
LOOKING 'RACING CAR' THATS WHY ITS NOT SUITABLE FOR MY 'DRIVING PASSION' MEGAZINEE!
SO DECIDED TO PHOTOSHOOT AGAIN OF THIS GUY 'FARUKH SHEIKH' WITH HIS SECOND CAR (
BLACK COLOUR CORALLA) BECAUSE A GOOD RACING CAR DOES MATTER FOR MY "DRIVING
PASSION "MEGAZINE( PEOPLE WILL NOT IMPRESS BY LOW CLASS CARS AND NOR THEY ARE
INTRESTED IN THIS TYPE OF CARS)
