Questionnaire Results

And Conclusions

Male or Female?

Question 1

Male

Female

10

10

An equal number of men and women completed this questionnaire for me which is good because that means I will get a fair result. Also, they are all over the age of 15 because that is my target audience.

Favourite hip hop band or singer?

Question 2

The highest results were Lil Wayne and Eminem. Therefore I’ve decided to write my main double page spread article about Eminem as he is my favourite hip hop singer too and will interest most of my readers. I will also include “Soulja Boy”, “50 Cent” and “Nicki Minaj” as coverlines on the front cover to attract my audience.

Colours most suitable for a hip hop Magazine?

Question 3

The colours most people chose were red, white and black. Therefore I will use these colours as my colour scheme.

Three words to associate with hip hop?

Question 4

FLAMEYO! What’s Up?

Music BAMBEAT

These words are only some of the thirty different words that I received in response to this question, to help me gather ideas of what I could call my magazine. The word “Beat” appeals to me most, therefore that will be the name of my magazine.

How often do you buy a magazine?

Question 5

Monthly

Weekly 9

11

More people buy magazines monthly, so I will make my magazine a monthly issue.

How much will you pay for a hip hop magazine?

Question 6

I’ve decided to make the price of my magazine £2.60 because that is the most that people are willing to pay for a hip hop magazine.

Mostly like and dislike about present magazines?

Question 7 & 8

These results show that my audience are mostly interested about the articles in a magazine, therefore I will aim to make my double page spread high quality.

In addition, they mostly dislike adverts, however, I cannot avoid using adverts because without them, the magazine industry would not be successful.As well as that, 6 people have

declared they don’t like the bad choice of free gift and only one person really likes free gift. Consequently, I won’t include a free gift on my magazine. I also intend to use good quality photos and a clear font.

Rating important and irrelevant aspects of a magazine

Question 9

For each feature, I asked them to circle a number, where 1 represents its importance and 5 is irrelevant. According to the results, people rated ‘articles’ and ‘picture’ as being the most important aspects of a magazine. Therefore I will take a lot of photographs until I get the ideal photo that will satisfy my audience. I will also do my best to make my article enjoyable. In addition, ‘Colour’ received mixed ratings but I know this is a very important aspect of a magazine, so I will use a clear colour scheme. Lastly, 80% of people rated ‘Competitions’ as 5 and 60% of people rated ‘Free gift’ as 5, which implies that I shouldn’t be concerned about including a free gift, although I will include a competition in my ‘Regular Content’ part of my contents.
