Questionaire Result

Here are the questionaire results for my audience research:

Double page spread

This is a double page spread from vibe magazine and is the inspiration for the the article in my magazine. The article is very simplistic because it only includes two images and the the text is on a white background. These features make sure that it doesn't takes any attention away from the artist  himself who is the main attraction. The article also includes a quote from the artist in bold large red text which immediately draws the attention of the reader and encourages them to reader the article. For my double page spread i will try and implement some of these features to make appealing to my audience and make it look professional. 

Two covers

This is the image cover that i have chosen for my music magazine. i have chosen this one  over the one below because it looks more appealing because the subject really connects with the audience.

This is the other image that i was contemplating whether to use or not. I concluded that i shouldn't use this because its doesn't stand out to much and it doesn't fit the criteria of a rap magazine. The subject's arms are also positioned in a very unusual way which make him look very uncomfortable.
