Questionaire results

Contents page initial thoughts

Through looking at different music magazine contents pages I have collected my ideas together so far and have came up with this contents page using a male model. By using a male model on my contents page it has solved my dilemma of what gender to make my model. However for the front cover I will instead use a female model as my questionnaire said the prefer a female model on the cover.

Notes

Just a few notes I've been making about my magazine. Trying to gather my ideas together on paper in order to get further in designing my magazine. On this page I have drafted a few layout ideas for my contents page. I have also thought about my models - male or female? That is my current debate. Finally the scribblings on the right are ideas for a possible small iconic logo for the magazine. Hopefully soon I will have gone through all my ideas and can finally get round to applying them to the rough cut.

Collecting research

I have conducted a survey to find out what my target audience would like the see regarding my front cover. I am currently creating a tally chart then will present my findings on graphs.
