For my audience research, I have noticed that the magazine should mainly contain sport and music. It should be A5 and should come out once a month. The magazine should also include bright colours. Also the magazince should be informal as people like to chill out when the are not doing college work. The magazine should also be cheap. The magazine should also include information about universities and jobs.
