Audience feedback

1. I created a questionnaire and asked 10 people within my target audience to fill it in. I have collated my results and drawn together some conclusions from my feedback 2. I asked this question to gain knowledge of whether my front cover alone would appeal to my target audience if they saw it in a shop. 8 out of 10 people said yes and this tells me that on first glances my magazine front cover is appealing. 8 2 Yes No 3. I asked this question to learn what features are the most effective for attracting people to the magazine. I have learnt that the colours on the front cover of my magazine work well as 6 people chosen colours as the main thing that attracts them to the cover. 6 people also chosen style as the thing that attracted them however, 0 people said it was the fonts that appealed to them. 0 2 4 6 8 Colours Main images Bands Style Fonts Layout 4. I used this question to find out why the front cover page was appealing. It being colourful was said by 6 people which shows my choice of colours was successful and also the cool style appealed to my audience. 4 people said that my magazine cover was cluttered and this could be an element that makes them dislike my front cover and overlook it if it was on the shelf in a shop among other magazines. 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Cool Indie Colourful Trendy Appealing Busy Cluttered Ugly Organised Interesting 5. 10 out of 10 people said the variety of images on the contents page make it more appealing and so this shows that having a good variety of images was important for my contents page. 10 0 Yes No 6.

Only two answers from this question were chosen; main image and headline. This tells me that these two features are the most important and stand out the most on the page.
