Questions on my magazine
“I asked 3 people 4 questions about my front cover, contents and double
page spread”.
Question 1
Is their anything that stands out on my front cover that you particularly
like…Do you feel that the colour scheme fits the genre and furthermore
does it fit into the alternative rock genre?
Feedback
1. “I feel that in terms of the colour scheme, it’s quite dark and different to other
magazines. The way the black and white on the main image real shines the
uniqueness of the whole magazine and furthers the fact of it being some form of
an alternative magazine. However I feel that it doesn’t look like an alterative rock
magazine purely due to the image itself and how the models don’t look suited
into that certain genre.”
2. “The colour of the text fits nice, overall I would say it fits into the rock genre
just by the colours and the cover lines that you’ve used, that real emphasis’s the
genre.”
3. “The magazine looks like it should be on the shelf’s and part of a real
magazine for the alternative rock genre. I personally wouldn’t buy the magazine
as I read everything online anyway.”
Question 2
Is the contents page clear? If not why?
1. “I would say it’s quite clear to read and find text”
2. “Yes”
3. “Quick to find pages, so yes”
Question 3
Does the double page spread look appealing to you and would you be
inclined to read it?
1. “I would purely due to the picture that’s used and how that really stands out”
2. “I also agree, I would probably read it.”
3. “If I saw this online I most probably would have a quick look into the article
and read.”

Question 4
Looking at these pages, front cover, contents and the double page spread,
would you buy the magazine if not why?
1. “I would buy the magazine as the bands from the front cover and the
contents are appealing and I’m really into them.”
2. “Yes I will buy the magazine as the content sticks out, so does the whole
layout and how well it’s been made, would help me further my interests
into the alternative rock genre.”
3. “If I was to buy the magazine I wouldn’t buy it for £2.20 as I feel that is too
much for a magazine like this, I would be willing to pay a maximum of
£1.50 as most of the content from the magazine would later be online to
view for free anyway.”
