After speaking to my target audience they informed me that compared to other magazines such as Kerrang the magazine front cover is very plain and boring. They also thought the price was very low and as this is a good thing for them they felt that it would make the magazine feel cheap and lose its unique value. They also felt the background was very busy with many irrelevant posters in the background and they felt it would look better with the picture to be closer and more to the point. Overall they liked the font type and the use of colour.
From this I have learned that I will have to increase the number of cover lines and include more of what the magazine has to offer on the front page. I will also increase the price after I decreased it from the last draft as now realise it was not a good idea. I will also make it less prominent as on the Kerrang page it is featured very small. Since my target Audience like the font and use of colour I will be keeping this the same and using it in my final design.
Overall I have learned a lot from my target audience and will be using what they have said to move forward and hopefully produce a strong front cover.
