The document analyzes the results of a questionnaire for a new music magazine. Most respondents aged 16-25 liked R&B and hip-hop music, though the magazine will feature indie music. Flowers were seen as the top icon for indie music. Most respondents were female and all listened to music daily. The most popular music magazine was Vibe and most would pay 50p-£1 for the new magazine. A female artist will be featured on the cover.

1. QUESTIONNAIRE ANYALSIS
I am going to create a music magazine and in preparation I made a questionnaire, I will
analyse the results.
1. Which is your favourite music genre?
From the graph of my results, my target audience of 16-25 liked R&B and Hip-hop. I am
doing an indie music magazine, so I shall merge some R&B and indie together.
2. What iconography doyou relate tothe indie music genre?
Majority of people see flowers as the iconography for indie music, then some people
thought of dream catchers and nobody liked hippies to indie music. Flowers are
often portrayed by the media and indie artists as iconography to indie music. They
are often in the artist’s hair and pictures or music videos.

2. 3. What is your gender?
There was 8 females and 2 males, so I had more females than males answer my
questionnaire. My target audience is female and male from the ages of 16-25, I think the
indie genre if often more liked by females than males. I had many more females than males,
maybe next time I would have more of balanced gender response.
4. How oftendo you listentomusic?
10 out of 10 people listen to music every day, which is all of my participants. This
shows that all of my questionnaire participants are big fans and lovers of music. No
one listens to music once a week or once a month.
5. What typography do you like the most?

When asking what my participant’s favourite music magazines were, I gave 3 options
of well-known magazines. I gave the option of Vibe, Rolling stone and the fly. 6
people chose vibe magazine as their favourite music magazine. Rolling stone was
chosen by 4 people. I will study the style of vibe magazine and try to mirror the style
of magazine that it is.

were willing to pay between 1p-50p. 3 people were willing to pay between 50p-
£1.00. 2 people would be willing to pay £1.00-£2.00. Based on this feedback I would
