Magazine research

After we had researched existing magazines, we took several of their ideas into consideration when constructing our own initial idea. We did a survey in a local WH smith in order to speak to people interested in magazines. We presented them with several different layouts and names and asked which one they preferred. The names we came up with were; Asylum, Freak show, Slaughterhouse and Filmfest. The majority of people decided that Asylum was the best name, and it seemed to not only reflect our genre but also our film. Asylum reflects the idea of not only a horrific situation but also the mental entrappment our protagonist experiences. Shown above are some of the visual aids we showed to our taret audience (15+)
