4.Who would be the audience for your media product?

I had a lot of ideas on what sort of type of genre I wanted to make my magazine and what sort of audience am I targeting, after all of the research I have done and all the data that I have collected from my questionnaire, I had chosen to create a magazine that is more appealing to teenager’s as it was the most popular audience and as being a teenager myself it is easier to create a magazine more appealing to teenagers. Also I narrowed down my target audience by also targeting teenager’s that are more interested in music such as Rap and RnB. I chose to narrow it down to RnB and Rap because my questionnaire gave me results that showed that the people that had done the questionnaire were most interest in these types of music.


This is the pie chart result for one of my questions. The question asked what type of music you like. With these results it helped me choose my target audience. As shown from my pie chart results that the most popular choice is RnB, so I used this result and created a magazine to target RnB teenage lovers. Also with a high percentage was other so when I asked the people I surveyed what they meant by others, it was said that they meant rap when they said others, so from all my results I decided to design my magazine involving hip hop and rap. My second pie chart above also shows the age of people that I had surveyed and with this result it made me decide that the magazine will be aimed at teenager’s as the people who had done the survey were all teenager’s so therefore when I created the magazine I took into consideration that the magazine will have to be appealing most to teenagers if not then my magazine will not make a lot of sales.
Also by looking at the results it also made me decide that when creating my magazine I should create a magazine about rising stars as the percentage of my pie chart shows to me that 65% of the people who took the survey would like the magazine to be about rising stars.

So overall I had decided that my target audience will be teenagers and the magazine will be about rising stars in the hip hop and rap culture.
