The author received feedback on their music magazine from audiences using Facebook and an iPhone voice recorder. Three people (two females aged 18 and 22 and one male aged 28) provided generally positive feedback, liking the style, images, and references. They found the artists and articles attractive but suggested shorter articles may increase attraction. Identifying spelling mistakes helped improve quality. The magazine was successful in attracting its target audience of males and females aged 14-28 interested in R&B, though more females than males.

Using Facebook and an iPhone to
help me evaluate my music
magazine.

2. Comment 1- Female aged 18

3. Comment 2- Female aged 22

4. Comment 3- Male aged 28
This comment was done on a voice recorder from my iPhone as It allowed me to play-back any
comments and to get a general view on what my target audience thinks of my magazine
without having to deal with writing it out- this helps the comment be more valid.

5. ConclusionConclusion
From the audience feedback I received I have noticed that both genders are interested in
this magazine. They like the overall house style in terms of text colour, text style, and the
use of Images. They also found the quotations in the article relating to something that is
going on in the word, and general comments have noticed the intertextual references of
the “Inbetweeners”. They found themselves immediately attracted to the particular
artists wrote on the music magazine. However I think if I did use shorter answers in my
article my audience would probably be more attracted to the artist as well as the article.
It was extremely helpful when my audiences mentioned the spelling mistakes as I could
go back to make any changes to the magazine as soon as possible, gaining a professional
product. The style of images I used are very common in R&B and was a typical convention
of this genre, I could of used a less serious image but by doing this my genre would then
be alternating between POP and R&B. In terms of comment 3 mentioning about DJ. Kerr
not having his own cover-line was because there was a page number instead, this is used
in music magazines as the audience can instantly see the artist and read up on them If
they are interested.
I feel that from this feedback I can see that my magazine does succeed in meeting its
aims, It attracts both Male and Females aged 14-28 who are interested in R&B, however
it seems to attract more females than males, this could be the colours, or how the main
artist is a female. Overall I have received a lot of positive comments about my magazine
and I feel that it is successful.
