Audience critique and feedback

My audience analyzed my pop magazine idea by saying it…

- has a big target audience

- a crowded front cover is god because it attracts their attention

- boy bands are good for attracting target audience

- Needs a better name (loop is best)

- Lot of young girls out there, and more likely to buy magazines because they don’t spend money on other, adult things.

My audience analyzed my dance magazine idea by saying …

- dance music has grown

- Should have a wider audience because older songs are now remixed to make new dance remixes.

- Like the name Udance

- Young and old are likely to buy

Audience critique and feedback

My audience analyzed my indie magazine idea by saying …

- There is a huge audience, yet less likely to buy because all over youtube.

- To plain, needs bribes on the cover

- Good colours

- Contents page idea is too young/immature/unoriginal

- Age range needs to be higher

- Simple and weird look is effective and attractive.

Audience critique and feedback

Final decision.
