Audience FeedbackTowards the end of the project, I

gained feedback about what my target audience really thought about my magazine. I asked friends, fellow

students and typically people who fit in with my audience profile to

complete a survey, assessing my magazine.

What aspect of my magazine could I improve?

For this question, most of my responders answered ‘Layout’ (43.75% ) as shown clearly below. Taking this into consideration, I then worked out the layout of my magazine after gaining these survey results – in some cases adding extra box out texts as well as changing the size of my text and images.

What part of my magazine do you like the most?

For this question, there were more mixed views present however ‘The Images’ remained the top answer with 37.5% therefore I didn’t think it was necessary to change/alter many images as most of my audience thought this was the best part of my magazine.

What part of my cover do you like the most?

As this question welcomed open responses, I gained lots f different feedback. Below are some of the ideas and comments.

What part of my contents page do you like the most?

This question also welcomed open responses so I gained lots of different feedback. Below are some of the ideas and comments about my article (my double page spreads).

Do you think my magazine successfully represents the indie music genre?

In this question I gained 100% positive responses with all my audience answering ‘Yes’. This proves that my target audience definitely think my magazine looks indie based.

Are there any other typical conventions of a music magazine I should include?

During this question, I gained a few suggestions of other convention I could include however most answered ‘No’.

Do you think my magazine successfully attracts my target audience (older teenagers and adults in their young to mid twenties)?

Again, I gained positive responses for my overall score – all of my responders gave either a 4 or 5/5 for my magazine.
