Results For My Magazine Front Cover

After gathering my results for my magazine front cover, I decided to do a bar chart for each of my questions. How I am going to lay this out is by writing the questions and underneath, there will be a pie chart.

1) Where would you expect the name of the magazine to be?

2) Who would you expect to be on the magazine cover?

3) What would you expect the colours to be like?

4) Would you expect to see a large amount of text?

5) What would you expect the cover lines to be referencing?

6) What kind of font would you expect to be used on the front cover of a mainstream magazine?

Questionnaire For My Magazine Cover

In order to make myself be confident in creating my magazine front cover, to help me, I have done research on what audiences's expectations of mainstream magazines are. I've decided to make a questionnaire, looking in terms of layout, design and content. I would also want to persuade the audience to buy the magazine. I have came up with several questions which I thought would give me in depth into the expectations of the audience.

Here are the questions:
