The teenagers that took part in the survey liked a range of different music, such as Indie, Rock, Dance, R&B but we gave the option for them to write any other suggestions, Metal was quite popular and Classical/Acoustic was also, along with Bollywood and Gangster Rap however there was only one vote for each of these and this is why we chose not to use them in our magazine. The title name which was most popular was 'Beatz' with 17 votes and for our masthead we will use Beatz (with the headphones over the t) as this was the most popular to the teens. The colour pink for the house style was not popular at all, purple and orange got the same amount of votes, so we decided to use a different colour for both magazines (Poppy will use purple and I will use orange). Heiti SC and Gothic writing were the most eye catching to the teens so we will use Heiti SC as it got the most votes. The features of the magazine that we offered were all quite popular, well known bands, in depth articles and gigs in particular, so these will be included in the magazines. We haven't yet decided whether the subscription will be monthly weekly or fortnightly as they got the same amount of votes. The cost of the magazine will either be £1.50 or £2.00.
