GENERAL FEEDBACK ON QUESTIONS • WHAT WOULD ATTRACT YOU TO A MUSIC MAGAZINE? Through interviewing I found out that people generally feel that the main image on the front

cover of the magazine would attract them to it due to the fact that it is the first part of the magazine that is seen and it depicts what the main article will be about.

• WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FEATURE OF THE MAGAZINE? The main article as it is what the magazine is mainly about. I found through asking other

people that also additional imagery and coverlines are also important as it says what else will be included in the magazine.

• WHAT WOULD YOU EXPECT TO BE INCLUDED IN A MUSIC MAGAZINE? I found that people mainly expect things like articles, reviews and competitions in a magazine.• THE NAME OF MY MAGAZINE IS SMOOTH MAGAZINE. WHAT GENRE DO YOU THINK

THIS NAME SUGGESTS? Through interviewing and asking I found that the name of my magazine “Smooth” depicted

the Soul genre which is what I wanted. This helps as I now know for sure that the name of the magazine depicts the genre.

• WHAT SHOULD A MAIN ARTICLE CONSIST OF? I found that people generally expect an interview that normally is on a specific topic. For this

reason I will make my main article about the upcoming artist on my front cover and about getting to know who she is.
