Week 26: Questionnaire Analysis Complete and Initial Idea for Student Magazine Started

Questionnaire
I have now completed my Questionnaire for my target audience to complete for their opinion on what makes a good Student Magazine, I asked my target audience of students to complete a questionnaire and I have analysed the results from the questionnaire. Within the questionnaire I asked the target audience of 16-21 year olds what colour schemes they like within a magazine, their opinion on the layout of a magazine, their opinion on possible names which I have for my student magazine and the features which they would be interested in reading within the magazine. The features which I believe would interest the target audience of students from my secondary research is features such as sport, fashion, events, competitions and career advice, from this questionnaire I have got a clear idea of what will interest the audience, and from getting opinions from the audience this is the best primary research to create a product with. I have analysed the results from this questionnaire and have presented them in the form of a graph, this clearly shows the results which I have got from each question and which will be used to help me create an idea for my student magazine. 






















Initial Idea: Brainstorming Started
As I have now carried out a questionnaire into what they target audience think makes an appealing magazine I can now start to brainstorm my ideas for my student magazine which I will be presenting within my pitch next week.  I have decided on the name for my magazine and the name which I have decided on is 'Students United', I chose this name as it has a clear meaning behind it, as it says that the college/university are a team and are 'one' and through the student magazine this can show as the magazine will include news and stories about the college and about the students within the college. I have created a mind map with the features which I will include within the contents page, the possible fonts which I can use for the main title of the magazine this mind map showed an initial idea which I will be presenting in my pitch and shows the features which I will include within my student magazine. I have included the colour scheme which I have decided on and this is Red, as this is a colour which my target audience liked and within working with Red I can get different shades of the red through working with the basic colour, I will research into the red colour palette and I will also research into different fonts which I will consider using and present these within my pitch.

When I started this new assignment I created a mind map of my initial ideas, I included existing student magazines and the possible colour palettes which I could use wihtin the magazine, I also included the features which I would expect within a Student Magazine and also possible names which I believe would work for a student magazine, in which I have now decided on the name 'Students United'.
