Evaluation: Question 4

What would be the audience for your media product?

Target Audience

• The target audience of my magazine would be around 50% male and 50% female. And I would aim for the age range to be from 16-25.

• During my research earlier on in the year, I noticed that magazines, such as NME, are unisex magazines, but have aspects of the magazine that are gender specific.

Research & Planning

• When I was preparing to construct my magazine I created a online questionnaire that was filled out by a number of people of the public, including people of my target market. By doing this I was able to add in their results and ideas about how a magazine should be, for example, price, who’s on the front, etc.

• After reading this result, I wanted to ensure that my model on the front was presented in a way in which the target audience would want him.

Questionnaire Results• These graphs show what I took

on board from my research and used in the construction of my magazine. These include, having my genre as indie pop, having my magazine more similar to NME than Q magazine. And finally, my audience feedback said that they would pay £3-£3.99 for an issue, but on the front page of my magazine, I have a special offer, where that issue is £2.50, which is cheaper than what my questionnaire results came back as.
