For my magazine cover, I have asked various people within my target audience what they think could be done to improve my magazine cover for my next draft. I did this in the form of a close-ended questionnaire. The feedback is below.
Do you believe this poster portrays the genre of a social documentary?
Yes: 8 No: 2
Does the editing help with this?
Yes: 9 No: 1
Do you think amendments should be made?
Yes: 4 No: 6
Should more titles be included?
Yes: 6 No: 4
Would you buy this magazine?
Yes: 7 No: 3
Would you choose to watch the documentary after having seen this cover?
Yes: 9 No: 1
After this, I asked some open-ended questions about the audience's opinions on what could be done in order to make it seem more like a realistic magazine cover, and also what they think could be improved in general. The feedback seemed to be that I should keep the focal image more natural and less edited, and to make it seem more realistic by including things such as a bar-code and price on the cover, as this is something you would see on the front of a conventional everyday magazine cover. I also received feedback that I should use more typography on the front cover. I will take this all into consideration when making the next draft of my magazine cover.
