Audience Research: Results

To get my results I posted my mood board on Facebook and people to comment on it, asking them questions like what colours work together? Would you assiociate classical music with this?

I would associate classical music with this kind of image. Mostly upper class people would buy this magazine, or people who are just interested in this genre of music. In your magazine you should write about new artists in this genre, but also old songs that readers would also be interested in. :)

1. i would associate this with either classical music, or a dinnertime entertainment selection (romantic).2. posh, upperclasss, sofisticated people who listen to classical/romantic music.3.i think that in your magazine you should do some articles, on newcoming but also the idols and inspirations of new people. perhaps on young/old and focus on onee? :)

1. Mainstream commercialised classical music - they sexed them up to appeal to a younger audience.2. 20-40 year old women who are ignorant to non-mainstream classical music. Aspirers and traditionalists.3. Fonts, how the photographs are taken (they've sexed them up!).

You can tell straight away that the genre is classical due to the particular images chosen. I imagine the type of person to buy this magazine would be quite well-off, maybe a slightly older age range of 20 and above? Mainly upperclass people would be interested int his genre. You could maybe chose a big star, like a really famous operatic singer, ... See Moreand write about what they're up to at the moment, maybe interview. Or maybe write about/interview a musician who was like a child prodigy and see how they're getting on etc. That's the kind of thing I'm thinking.

  1. Your audience research will only be really useful if you can find members of the target audience to ask - so in your case, Facebook might not be the be the best method. Can you contact your audience in any other ways?

  2. Research and planning - Make sure you finish everything on the ten point research and planning checklist, including any improvements I've suggested, by Friday 22nd Jan at the latest. I won't be able to give you a final research and planning grade until the whole project is over, and all my marking will have to be agreed by my colleagues, so this is just an indication of your mark for this section of the coursework rather than a final mark: at the moment, posts you've done are at a Level 2, around 10/20. See my comments on your posts for improvements.
