Survey Results

Survey  

Online survey- Majority of respondents of the online survey were female which suggests that we should try to make our magazine appeal to both men and women meaning that the magazine can attract a wider audience. 

The ages of participants filling in the survey were from 13 and upwards. Indie rock is listened to by a wide range of ages. This helps draw in a wider audience. The magazine will focus more on the younger generation as many Indie rock bands are new and contemporary which is generally associated with teenagers and young adults.  

The respondents seemed to engage with the concept of articles on bands and artists that are new and upcoming which means our magazine would be contemporary and unique so readers can explore the latest music and find out tour dates etc. The participants also want a bold and eye-catching colour scheme and images of bands and artists, this would be captivating and draw in a suited audience for the genre of music while introducing something different to others who aren’t so familiar to the genre.  

From the results it is evident that the audience would like 4 or more pictures of the artist/band being interviewed. The audience would feel they would benefit from a good amount of writing as they want to engage with the new upcoming band. 

The most popular font for our magazine picked was Cambria Bold, we will think about using this font in our magazine. However majority of our survey results showed that Arial was a popular font, therefore we will take that into consideration. We will also think about incorporating a stylish and artistic font as it will fit the image and genre of our magazine.  

Creating a paper survey allowed the questionnaire to be accessible to those who do not have immediate access to a computer.  The paper questionnaire features the same questions as previously asked and were returned with similar results.
