I asked ten people my questionnaire, and got some interesting results, the people i asked were ages 16-17 which is perfect for my magazine. From the results i learnt that i will have to form a magazine that will make people buy it and become interested in reading music magazines, it will have to be colourful to interest the audience, with numerous pictures to please the audience. The genre that was most popular was indie music, i do like indie music but i think most people will have the genre of indie music and i want mine to be different. I will talk about new releases,  the bands fashion and what they get up to to make my article interesting and fun to read. Obviously I wont be able to have a celebrity as my main model, but i will use direct address to make it as real as possible to the audience. I have decided to use both harsh and soft fonts to appeal to both sexes, also because the people i asked averaged out at using both. The contents page will consist of all three of the options but mainly new and interesting story lines to keep the readers interested and wanting to buy the magazine.
