The target audience provided feedback on ideas for the magazine model, color scheme, masthead, and content. For the model, they preferred a young woman with simple makeup and plain background. Color scheme opinions included using a single color throughout, black and white with colored font, or bright colors. The masthead should be bold, strong, and quirky. Content should be up-to-date news and information about a wide range of popular celebrities.

1. Target Audience
I spoke to my target audience to ask for ideas
for my sub-genre. I have wrote down the
feedback I got when having a discussion with
them.

2.  Ideas for my Model:
After speaking to my target audience about the model I should use in my magazine, they
decided it should be a girl who is young, the reason they said this is that they felt they could
relate more to someone who is younger and more ‘fresh’.
They also said the model for the front cover should be within a ‘plain’ background so that
all of the attention is on the model.
The makeup used should be simple to keep the main focus on the text.
However there was some disagreement as to where the model should be positioned as
some of the people I spoke to suggested a more busy atmosphere.

3.  Ideas for my Colour-Scheme:
My target market had various views on what colour scheme to use. Some said it should be
simplistic, meaning using the same colour throughout the whole magazine (front cover,
contents page and double page spread).
Some of my target market also liked the idea of the black and white theme with a different
colour font added in so it ‘added more colour’ too the whole thing.
Some of my target market also liked the idea of a bright, vibrant colour scheme as it
‘attracts attention’ to the magazine.

4.  Ideas for my masthead:
My target market liked the idea of a ‘bold’, ‘strong’ , ‘big’ masthead which catches peoples
attention.
My target market also said they like the name to be ‘quirky’ and ‘different’ so that it has a
different meaning to it and isn’t like other stereotypical names.

5.  Ideas for my content:
My target market said they like the content of magazines to be ‘up to date’ and current information
that they can read about. As this means they can read and find out about recent news.
They also said they like to read about popular celebrities and a wide range of celebrities.
