I thought I would analyse one more female I think I will focus more on them when it comes to creating my music magazine. However this time I have went for an older one as its important that I engage all of my target audience therefore her opinion will be very important to me. 

1) What music magazines do you normally read? 

Normally I like music that is new and current therefore Q is a one I often enjoy reading however I wouldn't say I read them on a regular basis.

2) What music genre would you like the read about and why?

I often read just about anything that is interesting however if I'm honest I do like the chart music as I like the know what is in at the minute. For instance Jake Bugg is new and coming into the charts I love hearing things about him and other newly found artists. 

3) What do you look for on a front page?
I look for a big image with text that stands out but doesn't look messy, I like to instantly look at the front cover and know what genre it is. Colours are important as well, because some colours just don't look right on a front cover like yellow and orange. You should stay away from them! 

4) What would make you buy a music magazine?

Firstly the price is me is important as some magazines are just way to expensive for what you are buying! But also the genre of the magazine and the artists it features as I like the artist or even the band to have a slightly different look about them. They need to have something a little different and their own individual style. Like Katy Perry she goes against everything and is just her own artist. 

5) What images would you like to see in a music magazine?
I would like to see a big image that attracts me straight away towards it. Possibly a female who is a role model and has a unique image and the artist to be doing an action and focusing on a task. 

6) Personally, what is your favorite name out of Fresh, Instant and Trend?
I like trend and also Instant they both seem to be music magazine like. 

7) What sort of articles do you like to read in a magazine and why?

I like reading interviews as they are easy to read and enjoyable, I also like reading overviews of artists that I haven't heard of as they keep me informed of what is going on. I like the article to have a set layout and to use spacing and lines well as I don't want loads of text thrown together when reading an article, I would say around 40% of the double page spread needs to be text the rest should be focused on image. 

8) What type of  artist would you like to read about?

I would like to read about new artists definitely someone who is just a bit different from the rest of them we have a Lady Gaga and we don't need another one.
