Questionnaire Results
The colours which people mainly like for a rock magazine
is purple, also a lot of people voted that they prefer a more relaxed and calm
cover for a rock magazine rather than having a busy one. This is because the
colours are relaxed and much more relaxed. The reason some liked Kerrang was
because it’s a typical rock magazine. Also because of the red colours makes it
look good for the genre. The name which has come out on top was “Knock Knock”
but because this is a Thailand fashion magazine I have decided to go to my
number two option which is “Rock Unplugged”
My final question was a very interesting question about
what people look for in an artist. Nine people said that they look for talents
rather than looks.
Product Placement
Product placement is the placement of a product that is
used in a range of different places and ways of subtle on television or in
shows. This will sub consciously and make people want to buy it if they see
someone reading it on screen.
To do this there must be an agreement between the company
and the show to allow both to be used in the show or on television. The
successes of this is huge and it is an easy way of advertising your magazine on
a grand scale.
Music magazines are sold in a huge range of ways,
supermarkets, small shops, news agents, online delivery, and email delivery and
of course on kindles and other devices such as tablets and phones.
A good way of using product placement is to have the main
character reading the magazine, this will encourage the viewers to read that
magazine because their favourite character has read it!
This way of marketing is strong and enables people to be
very subtle with what they do.
For this magazine, because it is a new magazine, it just
needs to be put out there so people can know what it is and so people can actually
see it and want to buy it. So anyway in which I can put my magazine into a show
or on the media I will take.
Research and how it will affect My Magazine
I have researched
and analysed three media artefacts. This will enable me to use certain sections
and specifics that I think would be affective in my magazine. Also the fact
that I have asked people in my questionnaire what they like and what they
prefer will also enable me to create a good house style for my specific
audience and for my specific genre. The colour scheme is very important and
this in particular will be important for me to get right for my specific
magazine because the magazine needs to look good.
It would be good to have your questionnaire available with some graphs to show trends in your research. This is key to understanding what you might put in your magazine and how it is informing the choices you will make during the production process.

Whilst this shows that you have found interesting information from your questionnaire, you fail to explain why it is interesting or informative. You might wish to explore the impact this might have on your content, as it could inform the type of images you use and the prominence of certain artists.
