I can see form the results of my questionnaire some essential information, for example on average the highest price my target audience would pay for a music magazine is £3 so I will decide the price of my magazine biased on this information. Over half of my target audience was interested in musical opportunities so I will have this as a feature in my magazine. Some of my readers would read articles in detail but not all so I will try not to put articles with too much information in them and sum up facts for an easy read.  The variety of music that my target audience likes is quite varied so I’m not going to make the music content specific and feature a wide variety in order to appeal to my whole target audience.

On the cover of my school magazine I have used a serif font and informal wording, this give the magazine a laid back feel, by using an informal font and typography I wish to create a relaxed atmosphere between the readership and the magazine. I have used little text on the magazine and hoped to entice the reader using photography and brand identity. I used the image as it shows a medium close up and the colours tied in really well with my brand identity, however  I feel that the image used could have been more fun and could follow the informal feel that I created with the text. Given the opportunity I would add more text to the cover of my magazine with more lures to encourage more interest. I managed to create a strong brand identity by using the same strip border and school logo on each page, I think that this is effective and will be recognisable and encourage repeat buyers.

I have not edited the photo at all, I think that I should have enhanced some of the colours to make the page feel more lively.

The images on my content page could have been bordered to make the page feel more alive, if I had the chance I would add a simple border making sure not to over crowd the page. The images on my content page are fun and show trips and events showing the enjoyable side of school that the students will want to be involved in.
