Who is my Target Audience?

In my audience questionnaire, the audience response is essential to my final, chosen design of the magazine. I plan on asking my audience and fellow students about what they would like to see in a magazine and what I can include to make the audience more widespread. I intend to have a variety of opinions on the colour scheme, the contents and the price and with the results from this questionnaire I hope I can make a sufficient magazine that will be engaging for all and yet also meeting the audiences needs ultimately.The audience will widely contribute to this magazine and their opinions will be a main focus point when creating it. The main audience for this group will vary from teens to middle aged or just generally fans of the hip-hop/rap genre. Of course not all of the audiences preferences will be taken on board however I would hope to try my best to meet all of them. When it comes to the colour scheme I would not be able to include all colours as that would be a disaster!

The type of audience may differ between the ages of 16-45 and predominantly the male genre however all genders and ages are able to read if the genre appeals to them. I feel that in the modern day hip-hop genre that is the usual or stereotypical age range that listen to the music. I hope to mainly aim at this age range but also try not to single out any people who are not..
The publishers of magazines in the genre like Vibe etc are 'Intermedia Partners' and 'Spin Media'. Therefore I'd also preferably like to aim for these publishers ultimately also. The total circulation for Vibe magazine for Vibe Magazine in 2011 was a total of 301,408.

My target audience despite the age range would be those interested in the hip-hop genre, fans of specific artists or those wanting to get involved in the industry whether that be on screen or off. The audience play a big part of my magazine therefore their responses will contribute and help me greatly in the process. They will hopefully be intrigued by the information the magazine would have to offer due to them supposedly being fans of the genre.
