I created this questionnaire to give to my target audience of boys and girls between the ages of 15-18. The answers they give will help me understand what my audience want to see on my magazine front cover.
Firstly I asked 'How often do you buy magazines?' The most chosen answer was 'never' This makes selling my magazine to my target audience hard, but this just means I will have to make sure that the magazine looks amazing and makes my target audience want to buy it. The second best answer was monthly, so when it comes to creating my magazine I will make it so that it is published monthly.
I then asked 'how much would you be willing to spend on a magazine?' The most popluar answer was 51p - £1. I will set the price of my magazine as £1. Teenagers are not willing to spend a lot of money on magazines as they can get the majority of the infomation online. Becuase of this I will make sure my magazine has web links to make it more up to date with the target auidence.
I asked 'What sort of articles would you like to find in my magazine?' There was a range of different answers but the two most popular were reviews and cinema ratings. As im not making the whole magazine these will just appear as sell lines on the front cover enougraging them to buy it and read the inside.
Next i asked about the colour scheme and the chosen answer was black and brown. I think this is a good choice and ouija boards are often dark brown colours. I will use brown fonts throughout the magazine and poster and also in the main image show the colour brown.
Finally, the last question I asked was 'which of the following do you think is the most important?' The chosen answer was the main image, however some felt that the mast head was. I will make sure both are to a high standard and stand out as professional.
