Research: Target Audience 2

A few days ago I carried out a survey on Instagram where I got results for what type of font my target audience liked the most. All I have to do now is decide what I'm going to actually call my magazine. I made a poll on polldaddy.com in order to collect data from the public on what I should call my masthead. I will collect the results in a weeks time.

 I didn't get any results from this survey so I will have to ask around 6th form in order to get the results I need.

Most people chose Banjo or Countrypolitan. I asked them to chose their favourite font as well as the name. These two names stood out to me from the beginning but they would both have their perks and their downsides if they were to be used as my masthead. If I were to use Banjo I would have to take into consideration that some people might not know that it is a country music magazine but it might appear to them as a magazine primarily about instruments. The problem with Countrypolitan is that despite being the perfect name for my magazine, it is quite long. This means that I might run into some trouble when editing it as it would have to be so small for it to fit on the magazine (unless I break conventions and have it vertical instead of horizontal). It would also be difficult since one of the things I wanted to do was have the image layered on top of the masthead, and if the writing is too small then it wouldn't look right.
