When browsing shop shelves to buy a magazine, the deciding factor is mainly: What bands are What bands are featured.featured.
The results clearly tell me what people would prefer in terms of type of magazine etc. Because of this, I have decided that my magazine will be a rock Magazine as that is the most popular. I have also learnt that what bands are featured in a particular magazine is very important in terms of sales. So the way I represent bands in my magazine will be as effective as possible as this is also vital in order for it to appeal to people, I will represent them very effectively by presenting them in an extremely original way on the front cover by the use of good graphical design as according to my survey, many people look for ‘a cool and interesting image’ on the front cover. Also according to my collected data, the majority of people get their music from the internet so on the cover I will have a link to a specific download page for them to download a free music track.
