Music magazine questionnaire

Put a ring around the answer that you are given

1) What age are you?
14 or under        14-18                18-29                30-39                40-49               

50+


                 









This graph demonstrates that the target audience for Music magazine will be 14-18 year olds; this is also my target market.       

2) What is your gender?

Male          Female











This graph demonstrates that the major of my questionnaire results are views from mostly males. And there for might be unfair and might give me one sided results.          

3) Which is your favourite music genre?

R & B         Rock          Pop           Electric      Hip-hop     Indie        
Other (state=……………)
                       










This shows me that the views of the questionnaire are that made by mainly fans of R & B and there fore they might give so some one sided results. However there are still a percentage of people who participated in my questionnaire who prefer the electric music genre. 

4) What sort of colours would you expect on an electric genre music magazine? (Put a ring around 3 colours)

Green        Gray          Black         Orange      White                Yellow      
Pink          Blue          Other (State=……………)











This result shows me that the most popular colours that people thought would suit an electric genre magazine were Black, Blue and Other (everyone who voted other stated that it should be red). So I can conclude that I should use blue, black and red on my magazine. 


5) If you read music magazines what do you like about them?

Gig guide           Q+A with artists                 Linear Article             

Reviews             Upcoming talent
