MAGAZINE ANALYSIS
RHYS NELSON – 12E
Institutional Information & History


Q magazine’s first issue debuted in October 1986; produced by the institution
of Bauer media group.



Q has made a few alterations to their brand image. In late 2008 Q revamped
its image, consisting of a smaller amount of text along with an increased
focus on subjects other than music. This resulted in some criticism, from their
loyal readership. Although, it has not yet been identified whether this change
in attitude will dramatically affect their sales.



The multi-national media group Bauer media group produce many sources of
entertainment via varied outlets, for example via the internet, a phone
application, physical document like a magazine etc. Bauer media group are
also well known for their diversity.
Institutional Information


Genre: Q primarily celebrates the rock and rollmgenre it caters for, but also
explores a range of the world’s biggest artists – from U2 to Adele, Oasis to
Rihanna, Radiohead to Lady Gaga.



Audience: Q shapes music in the UK and beyond. Q’s audience appear to be
relatively young and more affluent than any other music monthly published
magazine. This is apparent as I would guess their readers value their lavish
photography, detailed reporting and sense of humour.



Representations: Caucasian artists are mainly featured on the cover of their
magazines, in which they are portrayed to be successful, risqué, and
eccentric. This could be seen as appealing to the audience, as stereotypically
this race is seen to be well off.

Stories


Q magazine publishes stories revolving around on new releases of music as
well as upcoming artists which is reinforced in interviews. Also including
“world-beating exclusives” and “definitive album reviews”. Q is able to
ascertain the biggest stars in rock and roll. Adhering to the musical aspect, Q
includes tour reports, insights into a artists life as well as reviews.



The cover story of “The Killers” investigates their musical career. In terms of
their success (single ranking in the chart), asserting a nice insight to each
band members’ personality, their experiences and antics. The Killers discuss
their new album (Day & Age which debuted at no.1 in the UK, also “sold
600,000 copies” by early December. Following that the band’s tour
commenced in spring which “sold out in a matter of hours”.) This 9 page
cover story included the techniques of a drop cap, bold font, strict colour
scheme, page number, brand motif, varied font sizes, pull quote, image
caption and key image.
Stories
This article is to help further consumers’ knowledge on this artist, in this case
band. Prior to this, they are able to form a perception of them as individuals
as well as a group. Readership are expected to develop a relationship on a
personal level, this is through techniques like anecdotes, pull quoted etc.
From that, they might deduce why certain words are used. Perhaps a word
said is quite popular, so shows that individual is fond of trends and/or pop
culture.


Without interviews, magazines would not be as successful. A magazine’s core
is the interviews, which fans invest in to appear loyal to the musical act and
show a keen interest in their talent. Furthermore, features of varied acts are
vital which is why Q has featured the pop band “Take That”, then the more
alternative rock band “Coldplay”, to supplement the soulful audience “Amy
Winehouse” has a story. To further develop a more diverse audience Q
includes articles on Metallica, Katy Perry, Bruce Springsteen, Beastie
Boys, and Steve Coogan & The Rise And Fall Of Top Of The Pops.
Advertising Analysis


Advertisements such as, albums, alcohol, rizzla (smoking substance), success
stories, fashion, concert/tour dates, mobile networks, storage
facilities, film, artist memorabilia, cd-players, magazine subscription and
dvds.



These do successfully relate to the target audience, as the audience is quite
quirky, care free, eccentric, sociable (at times) and interactive. The
advertisement campaigns meet their criteria of the typical consumer. The
focal point of the magazine is music, therefore readership would have a keen
interest in albums, buying their merchandise, somewhere to store it, hearing
the songs live, a device to playback the songs and to subscribe to the
magazine in order to stay connected to this outlet. The mobile networks
works in terms of trend where communication is vital. Social events are also a
social convention where films are watched, substances like alcohol are
consumed, music is listened to etc. All of which are most likely connected to
this genre of music, prior to their rebel like behaviour.
