Evaluation Question 1
In what ways does your media product use forms and conventions of real media products?
I have chose to answer this question with audio and video. I used demo software called 'Replay Video Capture' to record the screen whilst I was speaking.
Also, not heard in the videos is how some of my results from the survey also partly answered this question. Below are the responces from 2 of the questions that show how I have produced what the audience expects. For example 100% agreed my double page spread looked like something from a professional magazine.

Evaluation Question 4
Who would be the audience for your media product.
For this question, I used Windows Messenger video call to talk to a member of my target audience. Using 'Replay Video Capture' to record this conversation.
My target audience is rock fans aged around 15/16 to around 21. Nick sits in the middle of this range, and likes music contained in my media product. My target audience are socialable, and provides a friendly atmosphere for my music magazine, for example he likes going out and generally being with friends. He goes to college, doing AS levels; college being a good place for socialising.

Question 7 on Prezi
Audience Feedback
After finishing my media product, I needed to send my production to members of my target audience, for feedback as after all, it is aimed at them.
Firstly I used www.facebook.com as my first source of audience feedback. A few people commented on the images as I posted them onto my profile. These are screenshots of the comments:
Secondly, I produced a survey for my target audience to complete. However instead of printing out a questionnaire and manually collecting the results. I used a site called Survey Monkey. This allowed me to produce a professional looking survey which people could complete online easily, all they needing is access to my facebook. The results were instant and analysing the results proved much easier. This is an embedded version of the survey that I sent to people. (This embedding my ask for completion, please ignore)

Overall, my audience liked my magazine. As seen from the survey the most popular item on the front cover was the main image, and the majority of people would buy this magazine. They thought that it was creative, interesting and easy to follow. But also, the main comment for improvement in this magazine was about the contents page having a bit too much writing. Whilst still being easy to follow and understand, some people said that there was a little bit too much, for example with the editors letter. Also, people would have preferred to have seen justified columns. However overall, my target audience really liked my magazine, thought that it suited them greatly, and would be happy to buy such a magazine.
