Although the majority of my audience said that 
they would be interested in buying a magazine, 
there are 3/10 people who said they wouldn’t 
because they have other ways of finding out about 
this type of music (i.e. internet, radio, phone, 
itunes) or that they are not interested in this genre 
music. My magazine will appeal to a niche target 
audience. 
6/10 people said that they would prefer 
the front cover model to be posing for 
the camera so I’ll consider this when I do 
my photo-shoot for my music magazine. 
My magazine will appeal to an older age 
group so I will make my magazine attract 
16 year olds and above so I need to 
consider what my front cover and dps will 
look like and consist of such as the models I 
will use and the language of the magazine. 
80% of my audience said that they like my 
initial title of my magazine so I am most 
likely to use ‘harmony’ as my masthead of 
the music magazine 
Looking at the results, I am nearly 
certain that my double page spread 
will be about the latest gossip about 
my front cover model that I will be 
using for my front cover magazine. 
50% of my audience said that they 
prefer the colour scheme to be 
black, beige and red because of the 
idea of these colours being soft, 
subtle and urban.
What would you like the front

What would you like the front cover

Majority of my audience said that they 
would like my front cover model to be 
female. This may be because they 
would attract both male for the 
aesthetic appreciation and female for 
them to have inspiration so I will 
consider having my model to be 
female. 
Looking at my results, I will have my 
model to be wearing glamour clothing 
to connote the beauty of R&B/Soul 
music and to attract the readers. 
I am most likely to have main images 
& sub-images in my contents pages 
because readers would like to have a 
visual idea of who is issued in the 
magazine.
