Questionnaire results

The results from my final questionnaire shows that my magazine should have a simple front cover. It should be bright and colourful. There should be a picture of an artist or band on the front and there should be a good amount of information. E.g. puffs, titles

Final Questionnaire

My original questionnaire did not ask the right questions so I made this one which is aimed more to the style of magazine than the contents.

Moodboard

from my moodboard you can see the bold use of bright colours. also the people in the pop industry are stylish, attractive and well dressed so if I wanted to create my own magazine I would have to use all that in my magazine. graphics are also a large part of the pop industry and music videos



the use of animation and SFX in these two pop music videos are an example of the style used in pop

My Magazine Genre

For my magazine I decided to base my magazine on my favourite genre of music, pop. I chose this because I know allot of pop artists and songs and I have a passion for the pop genre. If I picked a genre of music that I did not like I think my magazine would not be as successful.
