Interview Questions Part 1

Now that I have someone who to interview for my magazine I need to make my list of questions I want to know. To get some ideas of some questions I could ask I have been reading interviews from travel magazines such as Wanderlust. For example, this interview they done with Simon Pegg. 

Some of the questions from this interview that I am thinking about using and adapting are: 

• Do you have any pet peeves when flying? (or travelling in general)
• What is your most serious travel gear? 
• Do you have any travel fears?
• Talking about the "travel bug"

Questionnaire Results

Here are the results from my questionnaire. In the next few posts I will create my results into pie charts as well as updating you on how these will affect my magazine.

Redrafted Questionnaire

This is the redrafted version of my questionnaire:

Redrafting My Questionnaire

PODCAST:

To redraft my questionnaire I used the results from my first lot of questionnaires. In my first questionnaire I had questions at that end asking the audience how easy they found to understand the questions and if they had any improvements for me. Some of the improvements mentioned were: make sure to leave space for people to write answers on questions where you asked them to please specify and to make sure to start a question with 'If Yes' or 'If you answered yes' when a question followed on from a previous question. As well as this I decided to make some colour schemes instead of just listing some colours as people were either choosing too many colours or not enough and I also narrowed the 'what would you like to see' down so they could only pick 3 choices as many people were picking most of them and it wasn't telling me what they'd like to see most. As well as this I decided to add some general magazine questions in. They aren't specific to travel magazines but will ask the audience what price they believe the magazine should be, how often it should be published and what attracts them to buy a magazine.

My Interviewee

I am going to be interviewing Steph from the travel blog Twenty-Something Travel.

This is a screenshot from her blog.

The interview will take place through email as this is what Steph said would be easiest for her. I am busy creating the questions that I want to find out about her and her life. As well this, I may create a questionnaire asking my audience what type of questions they would like answered.
