Proposal Form!

This is a proposal form that I created for my music magazine, this will discuss and include most of the things that I want to do within my music magazine. 

Music Magazine Questionnaire Results Analysis!

Music Magazine Questionnaire Analysis:

    In order to receive an insight into what people might want to see within a pop music magazine. Firstly I handed out my questionnaire to people in my school who ranged from the age of 11-18 including teachers. I then handed my questionnaire out to people within my area so I had a wider range of opinion within my results.
      I have recently uploaded an unanswered questionnaire, followed by the results of each question. The questionnaire consisted of a diverse range of questions for my target audience to answer so I could see what qualities appealed to them the most. The results of the questionnaire allowed me to see what qualities my target audience would prefer to see and I will apply these to my music magazine in order to attract my target audience.    
     After getting the results back from my questionnaire's I have decided that the magazine will appeal to a female audience between the ages of 14-25. I will be naming my music magazine, 'Sound of Pop!' as it will use the pop genre. I will be publishing my music magazine once every two weeks and it will have a price of £1.50 as this will beat most music magazine on price, thus meaning that more people will want to buy the magazine. The colour theme that I will be using is light green, pink, purple and white as these colours appealed to my target audience the most. Within my magazine the freebee's that I will put into my magazine is either free downloads or make-up from an artist collection as these also appealed to my target audience the most. For the prize which can be won from a competition will be a meet and greet with the celebrity that is the main feature of the music magazine for this week as this is what my target audience wanted to see within the music magazine. The feature I will use within my magazine will be an interview with the artist that is the main feature of the magazine as this is what my target audience wanted to see within my music magazine.
