IPC Media would be a suitable media institution to distribute the media product because they publish NME magazine, which was an inspiration for the magazine's style. IPC Media has experience with magazines and customers in the music genre. Distributing the magazine, which covers the unique Mod genre, could increase IPC Media's potential sales and market coverage as it appeals to an unfamiliar musical style that may attract new readers.

Evaluation question 3
Bauer Media would distribute the indie/rock magazine because they currently distribute magazines like Q and Kerrang that do not directly compete with NME in the indie/rock genre. This avoids direct competition that could occur if the same publisher distributed both magazines. Bauer also distributes magazines at a lower cost than NME, which could boost sales for the cheaper independent magazine. The magazine would be sold in supermarkets, music venues, and newsagents to reach a wide audience of music fans.
Question 3
Eric Bowlby wants to launch a new music magazine targeting "indie kids", "hipsters", and "indie scenesters". He proposes partnering with IPC Media, the publisher of the New Musical Express (NME) magazine, which has a similar audience. This would allow for synergies like cross-promotion between the magazines to boost sales. IPC Media is an established player in the music magazine market and understands the target demographic well. Their large distribution network would help get the new magazine on shelves successfully.
Question 3
I would like to distribute my music magazine through IPC Media because they have influence in the music magazine industry and reach 26 million people in the UK, which would provide a large audience. IPC Media currently publishes NME magazine, which deals with similar artists and images that would be featured in my magazine. Based on feedback, the magazine would also be distributed online to make it easier for the target audience to view and purchase, as well as in music-focused stores like HMV and mainstream retailers like Tesco and Sainsbury's to maximize availability.
Q2
The publisher the author wants to distribute their disco/dance magazine with is IPC Media. IPC Media is one of the leading consumer magazine publishers in the UK. They distribute respected magazines like NME and have experience successfully selling music magazines. IPC Media does not currently have a disco or dance magazine, so the author's magazine would offer something new. Their wide variety of magazines across genres like fitness and fashion shows they can appeal to different audiences. Distributing with IPC Media would help the author's magazine reach a large, existing audience and potentially sell well.
Presentation1
The publisher that the author thinks could best distribute their proposed disco/dance magazine is IPC Media. IPC Media is one of the leading consumer magazine publishers in the UK and distributes respected magazines like NME. They do not currently have a disco or dance magazine, so the author's magazine would offer something new. IPC Media also sells a variety of magazines to a wide audience, and distributes fashion magazine Marie Claire, so they may be interested in a magazine keeping up with disco music trends.
Question3
IPC Media would be a good publisher to distribute the media product because they distribute popular music magazines like NME and there is a gap in their market for a pop magazine, which the media product is. IPC Media publishes magazines in various genres and locations, so they were researched as a potential publisher.
Question 3
The document discusses two potential media institutions - IPC Media and Bauer Media - that could distribute an indie music magazine. Bauer Media is suggested as the better choice as they currently sell similar magazines like Kerrang alongside indie magazines, meaning they could reach a wider audience by offering both rock and indie content. Distributing through the larger IPC Media would be more difficult for an unknown magazine.
Q3
The document discusses potential media institutions to distribute an indie music magazine. It analyzes IPC Media and Bauer Media, concluding that Bauer Media would be a better choice as they sell established magazines and the magazine could reach a wider audience alongside Bauer's rock magazine Kerrang, expanding Bauer's customer base across both rock and indie genres.

Media question 3
IPC would be well-suited to publish the author's music magazine due to their experience publishing a similar magazine, NME. While targeting both males and females, unlike NME which focuses on males, the magazine would provide something new for IPC. HMV and WHSmiths would be ideal retailers as they successfully sell similar products and are popular music industry destinations visited regularly by the author's target audience of all ages.
Question 3
Bauer Media could distribute a music magazine because they have experience producing popular magazines like NME and Q that focus on music. As a large distributor with a wide customer base, Bauer Media could help reach a broader audience. Their knowledge of producing magazines in the music genre provides relevant expertise.
Question 3
IPC would be a suitable media institution to distribute the magazine because they already own the successful rock magazine NME, which has a similar style. IPC knows how to successfully market and advertise magazines and distributing this new magazine would help IPC attract a wider music audience and younger female readers, while not facing competition against their own NME magazine.
Evaluation 3
IPC media would be an ideal institution to distribute the media product because it is a large and successful subsidiary of Times Inc. that publishes many lifestyle and music magazines. While IPC already distributes the well-known music magazine NME, the proposed magazine has a different monthly circulation schedule and aims for a higher quality publication. Distributing the new magazine could help IPC expand its offerings beyond just lifestyle magazines to a broader range of genres.

The document describes how a student media product called F M magazine uses and develops conventions of real magazines. It follows conventions such as having a masthead with the magazine's name, a striking cover photo with few cover lines, and kickers to entice readers. It uses three columns for articles, like music and fashion magazines. It also includes unconventional elements, such as uneven white space on the contents page and limited color for a fashion magazine. The magazine is available on multimedia platforms and includes social media links, following conventions for reaching its target audience. The font used is conventional for readability.
Evaluation question 3
Bauer Media would be the best media institution to distribute the magazine because they distribute similar music magazines like Q and Kerrang but not directly in the indie/rock genre of the planned magazine, avoiding direct competition with NME which is distributed by IPC. Choosing a different distributor than NME also allows the magazine to potentially gain fans not reached by NME. Bauer is also a good choice because the magazine will be cheaper than NME, avoiding direct competition over sales while potentially boosting sales due to the lower price.
Ipc media
IPC Media would be a good institution to distribute the music magazine "Desolation" because it publishes magazines like NME that focus on indie rock music. Distributing through IPC Media could gain more attention from consumers since it is a well-known institution that targets the same audience. Bauer Media would also be suitable since it publishes the popular rock magazine Kerrang!, which would help reach a larger audience and increase interest in "Desolation" due to Bauer Media's established brands and audience.
What kind of media institution might distribute your magazine and why?
IPC Media and Bauer Media are two major music magazine distributors in the UK. IPC currently distributes the popular music magazines NME and Uncut, targeting younger audiences. Bauer distributes magazines like Kerrang and Mojo, some targeting older audiences and focusing on rock music. While Bauer is a larger distributor, IPC's smaller size could provide a better fit for the candidate's new magazine targeting middle-aged audiences with content on classic rock bands. IPC would also increase the magazine's uniqueness compared to titles already distributed by Bauer like Kerrang. For these reasons, the candidate chose IPC Media as the preferred distributor.

I would distribute my magazine through IPC Media. IPC is a well-known media publisher that distributes magazines like NME, which targets a similar audience. They are a good choice since they already have an established market for music magazines but only one alternative/rock magazine, NME, so there is space for another magazine like mine that could appeal to the same audience. Distributing through IPC would give my magazine credibility by associating it with their well-known titles and allow me to benefit from their existing audience.

IPC Media publishes NME magazine and has a large female audience that matches the target audience of the document author's new music magazine. While Bauer Media publishes similar magazines to the proposed one like Kerrang and Q, IPC would be a better choice because it does not currently distribute many magazines so the new title would stand out, and the target audiences are also aligned.
Question 3 - distribution
The document discusses potential distributors for a new indie music magazine called Ongaku. Time Inc. and Bauer Media Group are considered. Time Inc. distributes magazines like NME but only digitally, while Bauer distributes magazines like Kerrang! in both digital and print formats. Though Bauer's Kerrang! competes for a similar audience, Bauer has more experience with media magazines and would distribute Ongaku in print, making them the recommended distributor over Time Inc.

Large media institutions such as IPC Media or Bauer Media would be well-suited to distribute my music magazine because they have a proven track record of successfully publishing magazines like Q and Kerrang that have built a loyal audience. These large institutions could leverage their existing audience and reputation to help promote and grow a new magazine, which would benefit both the institution financially and help ensure the success of my magazine. However, my magazine may face an initial disadvantage in terms of audience size compared to some of the more established music magazines published by these companies.
Media evaluation question 3
The document discusses which type of media institution would be best suited to distribute the author's music magazine called "Fusion". It analyzes the biggest current music magazine publishers like IPC Media, Bauer Media Group, and Wenner Media. It determines these large institutions already publish magazines covering similar genres to "Fusion", so distributing through them could negatively impact existing magazine sales or the potential revenue of "Fusion". Instead, the author concludes a smaller institution like the BBC would be a better fit, as its magazines have very specific genres that don't compete directly with "Fusion", allowing it to find its own audience without cannibalizing other magazine sales.
Q3
The document discusses distributing an independent magazine called "Eternal" through Vice, an alternative magazine distributor known for challenging dominant ideologies. Vice distributes their own magazines directly to independent record stores and music venues in major cities rather than relying on mainstream distributors. While Vice distributes some magazines for free, the author believes selling "Eternal" for £1.50 per issue would generate enough profit through sales to independent audiences and advertising revenue to sustain the magazine long-term.
How did you attract your audience
The document discusses how the author attracted and addressed their audience for a music magazine product. To attract the audience, the author used language specific to music genres and referenced well-known bands that the target audience would recognize. This was done so anyone viewing the magazine would immediately know it was about music and attract those interested in the industry. To address the audience, the author included identifying information like the magazine title, issue number and date.
Eval q3
A large media company like IPC Media or Bauer Media Group, which already publish similar style magazines like NME and Q, would be good candidates to publish and distribute the magazine. They could aim to compete with those magazines and outsell them. Alternatively, a company like BBC Magazines, which currently does not have this type of magazine, may want to publish it to expand their offerings.
Evaluationquestion 3
IPC Media would be the preferred publishing company because they only publish one music magazine currently, so there would be less competition than with Bauer Media who publishes three music magazines. IPC is also a British company, which benefits the magazine being targeted towards a British audience. Their success with NME and using digital platforms well provides a model for how to promote the magazine brand online. Chain supermarkets and smaller stores would likely be the distributors for wide magazine availability.
Ipc
IPC media would be the best choice to distribute the magazine because they have been very successful distributing rock and indie magazines like NME and Uncut. While they only distribute magazines in this genre currently, introducing a R&B genre magazine could attract a wider audience for IPC and fill a gap in their offerings. The target social class of B/C1 also matches IPC's existing audience. Distributing a magazine in a new genre would boost IPC's reputation, variety, and help them reach a more diverse audience beyond just rock fans.

- 1. 3. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
- 2. IPC Media They produce NME magazines so I decided it choosing IPC Media would be an appropriate choice This is because I took most of my inspiration from NME and made my magazine style similar to NME itself. They also have the experience with magazines as well as the customers
- 3. IPC Media would want my magazine as it of a different genre and it is more unique than most magazines. Their potential sales would increase as they would have more of the music market covered It is a genre which not a lot of people are familiar with so many people would then buy the magazine to see what Mod is like.
