The document summarizes the results of a focus group conducted to gather feedback for a planned music magazine. Key findings included: 1) Participants preferred articles with backstage information rather than celebrity interviews. 2) Most were willing to pay £2.50 for the magazine but not on a weekly basis, helping determine production frequency and costs. 3) "Beatz" was the preferred name over "Rhythm" and will be printed on the front cover. 4) Rihanna would be a good choice for front cover features given her large, worldwide fan base.

Audience analysis survey
The document summarizes the results of a survey conducted to determine the target audience and content for a new music magazine. Key findings include:
- The target audience is primarily female ages 17-20.
- Most listeners enjoy music daily and often attend concerts, so gig listings and a free CD would appeal to readers.
- Popular music magazine brands like Q and NME influenced styles readers prefer.
- Readers are most interested in interviews, new album releases, and a balanced layout of text and images.
- Based on these insights, the magazine will aim for a weekly publication targeting younger music fans with artist features, reviews and visual presentation.
Research graphs from questionnaires
The document discusses discovering information about the target audience for a student's music magazine, including their age range, gender, music interests, expectations for magazine content, willingness to pay, and interests. This research helped the student decide how to structure the magazine, including targeting a specific gender, including popular content like interviews, setting an appropriate price, and matching the tone and content to readers' interests.
Aims and considerations sheet
I will look at 7 existing artefacts such as posters, leaflets, social media accounts, websites, merchandise, adverts and banners to help with my research on bullying and pressure in schools. For primary research, I will survey 30 students ages 14-16 through a paper survey and focus group of 10 students to get more in-depth answers. I may face issues getting students to participate but my younger brother can help distribute surveys. The research will be successful if I get completed surveys and hold a focus group discussion. When doing this sensitive research, I need to be sensitive with my questions and ensure students' answers remain anonymous if desired. Low participation could be an issue but I can make the questions less personal and focus groups more
Question 4
The document discusses research conducted to define the target audience for a magazine. It involved creating an audience profile through surveys that showed the target audience was primarily 16-24 year olds. Additional research with this age group found that they preferred bolder colors like red, black, brown and purple be used in the magazine. Focus groups provided positive feedback on the cover design, contents page layout, and double page spread sample, affirming color choices and easy readability. This research helped tailor the magazine's design and content to best appeal to the intended younger audience.
Aims and considerations sheet
The document outlines considerations for research on a social action campaign against bullying. It discusses looking at existing anti-bullying materials to inform the new campaign. Primary research would involve online surveys and interviews to understand people's experiences with bullying. Sensitivity would be needed in the research as bullying deeply impacts people. The finished campaign pieces would be displayed in schools and youth groups to reach the target audience. Funding and getting people to openly share their bullying experiences could present challenges to the research.
Aims and considerations
The document outlines plans for research to create promotional materials for a charity called SASH that helps the homeless. It discusses examining existing campaigns to analyze colors, images, writing and effectiveness. It aims to survey 20-30 people ages 16-24 through questionnaires to understand preferences. Potential issues addressed are offending people with images/questions and low response rates, which will be addressed through sensitive questions and approaching people in person. The finished materials are planned to be posted online and in stores to promote awareness and fundraising for the local charity.

Maryasiye Kircin - Primary Research Evidence
Maryasiye Kircin conducted primary research through a Survey Monkey questionnaire to inform the development of their proposed music magazine, PULSE. The questionnaire received responses from 10 people across various age ranges from under 13 to over 26. The results showed that the majority of respondents would expect to see images of artists on the cover of a hip-hop/rap magazine and find interviews and gossip to be the most important interior content. Respondents also indicated that promotions for concert tickets and YouTube/TV advertisements would be most appealing. Considering these findings, Maryasiye plans to feature a unique artist on the cover of PULSE along with descriptive copy, and include competitions and promotions in the magazine.

Market Research Report
The document summarizes market research conducted to help design a new music magazine. A survey of 20 people found that most of the target audience is between 18-29 years old, listens to indie/alternative music 4-8 hours per day on iTunes, and prefers to learn about new releases on social media. While only 25% currently buy music magazines, pricing it around £2.99 and focusing on artist interviews, photos, and social media promotion can help attract new readers. The research provided insights into the target demographic and their music preferences to help make the new magazine appealing.
Target market research
Natasha created a questionnaire to research her target audience for a new music magazine focused on the indie genre. However, many of the respondents did not fit her target audience and wanted different things than her intended readers. To improve, she needs to survey specifically people who like indie music and music enthusiasts to better understand what they want from the magazine and tailor it to her target market.
Screengrabs of coursework
The survey responses will help the author tailor their music magazine to their target market. Most respondents were female and under 18 years old. They prefer printed magazines focused on indie and alternative music, with images over articles. This suggests the magazine should have a vibrant design with photos and step-by-step pieces rather than in-depth reviews. The responses also indicate content shouldn't require online or interactive elements since readers prefer print.
Audience research questionnaire results
The document outlines the results of a questionnaire given to 20 people to conduct audience research for a pop magazine. Most respondents were aged 13-18 and female. One Direction and 5 Seconds of Summer were the most popular artists. Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith and One Direction were named as top favorite artists. Respondents associated pop music most with being happy and gossip. They preferred bright colors like pink, yellow and red for the magazine and wanted to see cover stories and Q&As. This research will help the creator design an appealing magazine for their target audience of teenage girls by including favored artists, genres and design elements.
survey results and evaluation
The document summarizes the questions asked in a survey about preferences for a music magazine targeted towards indie fans aged 14 and above. Key findings include that both male and female genders were represented, the majority of respondents were aged 14 and above as targeted, cover images would convince purchases, competitions for concert tickets should be included, and red/white/black color scheme and £2-3 price range were preferred. Title choices and how to feature artists inside were also informed by the survey results.
Music magazine survey
The survey results show that the target audience for a new music magazine is 16-20 year old females. Most participants enjoy listening to music and going shopping in their spare time. While music genres were varied, pop was the most popular. The majority of participants never buy music magazines but 11% buy them monthly. To attract repeat buyers, the new magazine will need different content than existing magazines. Most buy magazines for entertainment and enjoy interviews. The magazine will be released monthly for £2.75 to appeal to the target price range.

This very short document consists of the word "Masthead" followed by the word "Drafts" on the first line. The remaining three lines simply contain the word "Beatz". The document appears to be testing formatting or placeholder text.
Masthead drafts
This very short document contains 3 repetitions of the word "Beatz". It appears to be focused on or related to music production given the use of the word "Beatz" which is a common slang term referring to music beats or the process of making beats. The document provides very little other context or information.
Mock up feedback
The document provides feedback from mockups of a magazine's front cover, contents page, and double page spreads. For the front cover, the first design was most popular for being simple, clear, and appealing. The contents page feedback showed the first design used space and images best. The double page spread feedback said the writing/images in the middle may not work due to the magazine crease, and the third design was most interesting for the target audience.
Magazine mock ups
This document discusses magazine mock ups and layout designs. It includes contents pages, front covers, and double page spreads to showcase magazine designs. The mock ups allow visualization of magazine layouts prior to publication.
Copy of gantt chart template
The document contains a timeline from March 4th to 28th for planning and producing a music magazine. It includes tasks such as developing readership profiles, mood boards, location scouting, photo shoots, font selection, masthead and cover designs, content pages, and sample articles. Feedback will be gathered on mock-ups before finalizing the front cover, content page, and sample double page spread for the magazine.
Masthead feedback
The author received feedback on three masthead design options from various people. They found that the middle design stood out the most due to its shadowing of the letters and unique color. Based on the feedback, the author made some changes to the chosen middle design by darkening the shadowing and changing the color. After further testing different color combinations on all three designs, the middle design was still deemed best. The author concluded they would use the modified middle design as the magazine's masthead.
Font drafts
The document evaluates several fonts for suitability for use in a magazine called "Beatz". Impact is selected for the masthead as it is clear, bold, and matches the look being sought. Courier New is selected for articles as it has well-spaced, open lettering. Comic Sans MS, Dotum, SimHei, DFKai-SB, and Franklin Gothic are rejected for being too plain, boring, or not matching the target genre or audience.
Evaluation analysis
The document discusses the evaluation of magazine cover and contents pages. The author analyzed two front covers and two contents pages from a student magazine. They learned that titles are called mastheads and are placed prominently at the top to be memorable. Columns are useful on contents pages to make information easy to read. The author applied these lessons to their own work by using a bold masthead and columns.
