I felt it was neccessary to construct a second questionnaire because I wanted to ask specific questions about the genre of music magazine I am going to do. However this time I asked a niche market of 15 people rather than a broad range of 30 people. I asked 15 females aged between 15- 19 because this is going to be my target market for my magazine so I felt it was important to see what would appeal to them to make them buy it.
Everyone in my questionnaire said that they felt there is a gap in the market for an older style pop magazine because the only pop magazine on the market at the moment is Top of the Pops which is aimed at much younger girls. Therefore I feel that this is a good idea for my magazine.
The majority of the participants said they would prefer for the magazine to be specific to their gender which is why I have chosen to aim it specifically at females rather than both genders. By aiming at specific genders I can use fonts and images which relate to females making them want to buy the magazine, rather than aiming at both genders.
A lot of my participants said that pinks, purples, greens, blues and blacks would be suitable for a female pop magazine. However I don't want to main colour scheme to be pink because this could make the magazine seem targeted to a younger female audience. Therefore blue, purple and silver will be my main colour scheme with pink to highlighint specific points and black helping to tone it down and make it look less crowded and more sophisticated.
Most of my participants said they would prefer for the double page spread to be in an interview style rather than an article style. This means I will ask the artist specific questions which will hopefully interest my audience to read on.
Finally my last question asked whether my audience would prefer a female of male on my front cover. They said that they would prefer a female artist. This would help my target audience to relate to the artist.
