Evaluation Q4
Q4. Who would be the audience for your media product?
Even though the front cover image of my magazine looks more appealing to females rather than males, my whole media product is aimed at all R’n’B fans. In order to produce a media product which would be suitable for R’n’B fans, I conducted a survey in the form of a questionnaire to find out what people wanted from a magazine, the contents that they prefer and what also attracts them to buy the products. Using this research would allow me to produce a media product which would attract the intended target audience, which is R’n’B fans. I used this research to decide on the contents of my media product and the colour scheme that I was going to use, as I needed to use colours which would attract the intended audience. It also helped me decide on the type of images to use with creative photography, the content of my double page spread and importantly the design of the front cover.
