Q13.A.10 B.18

In result of askign audiences 13-2o my =I have found that over 3/4 of my audience wished my magazine to be HipHop/R&B, and therefore has made the main genre Hiphop/R&B. Although still being an all genre magazine, appealing to all audiences.

Colours that was found most popular was: 'Range of colours'. Allowing me to choose the colour of of which fits the different genre. Although sticking to a consistent theme. As most again agreed that even thought they wanted the magazine to consist of a range of colours, that a variety of colours was best suit for an all genre magazine. I have learnt that artist have a big influence on whether people buy my magazine or not. All except two choose 'yes' that artists names influence them to buy the magazine. And therefore will include known of each genre.

I also have found out that my audience would prefer my double page to consist of an interview rather then information, and this is proves more interesting.

My audience felt that images was the most influential feature to the magazine and therefore will include more images then i tended to. making sure my pictures are unique.which I figured would be most influential and therefore experimenting with levels, lighting and costume.
