IPC is the UK's leading consumer magazine publisher, engaging with over 26 million UK adults across print, online, mobile and events. They publish content for over 60 media brands across different genres, including fashion, TV and music. However, their involvement in music magazines is minimal, with only two publications - NME and Uncut - listed under the "Young Men" category. This suggests there is a niche for other music magazine genres to work with IPC.

Who would be the audience for my media
The target audience for the magazine is people aged 16-35 who enjoy rock music and its subgenres, with the majority expected to be male readers. However, female artists will also be featured to attract female audiences. While most readers will be in the target age range, some outside of it may also buy the magazine, and future issues could feature rock music from different generations to broaden the audience further.
Media distribute
Bauer Media and IPC Media are two potential media institutions that could distribute an indie music magazine. Bauer Media distributes well-known magazines like Q and Kerrang and would help shine a light on a new indie magazine through proximity. However, IPC Media, which owns dying magazines like NME and Uncut, might struggle to successfully launch another music magazine. Ultimately, Bauer Media is identified as the best choice because of its international reach, experience distributing a similar magazine in Q, and ability to help improve the new magazine.

The audience for the radio bulletin would be residents of the Hampstead area in London. Questionnaires with local residents found they wanted to stay informed about incidents and news specific to Hampstead through a radio broadcast, as they wanted locally relevant news they could listen to on their commute.

Market research
This power point is looking into the magazine industry and analysing what type of audience they aim for but also what type of magazine they produce.
Market Research
Rock Sound magazine has over 1.3 million total brand audience across its print, online, mobile, and social media platforms. It caters to a readership that spends hundreds of millions per year on music and fashion, with over a third attending 10+ concerts per year. NME magazine has a paid circulation of 15,830 and unpaid circulation of 300,000, with a median reader age of 23 years old. Q magazine reaches over 50,000 in print circulation and provides an interactive digital edition with music videos and playlists to enhance the reading experience for its average 34-year old audience that is mostly employed.
Audience
The target audience for the media product is rock music fans aged 18-25, with a niche focus. While appealing more to males due to its genre, language, and layout, some "tomboy" females may also be interested in its coverage of fashion and news about rock artists beyond make-up and celebrity gossip. Priced at £2.99, on par with other magazines, it could be available to a mass audience, particularly appealing to working and middle class individuals who would find it accessible during short breaks in their day.

The document summarizes information about two media companies - Spin Media and Future. Spin Media was founded in 1999 and owns publications like Vibe magazine and Celebuzz website. Future was founded in 1985 and publishes magazines related to music, films, gaming and family history like Rhythm, Total Film and Your Family Tree. Both companies publish a wide range of magazines and websites focused on music, entertainment and other media genres targeting different audiences.
Media publishers
The document discusses potential publishers for a new music magazine called "Download" focused on punk rock music. It analyzes IPC Media, Bauer Media, BBC Magazine, and Emap. IPC Media is identified as the best choice as they already publish similar magazines like NME but nothing too similar to target the same audience. As a leading UK publisher, IPC Media could help advertise and distribute the magazine more easily and cheaply. In the pitch, the proposed magazine "Download" is described as biweekly, costing £2.99, and targeting 15+ year olds interested in both popular and up-and-coming punk rock bands through articles, reviews, and competitions.

- IPC Media would be the best publisher for the proposed new punk rock music magazine "Download" as they already publish similar magazines like NME but none focused on punk rock.
- "Download" would appeal to 15+ year olds interested in punk rock music with recurring articles, band features, concert listings, and competitions.
- The pitch proposes biweekly issues sold for £2.99 in stores and online to effectively reach the target audience. Advertising would promote the first issue with both popular and up-and-coming punk bands.
Magazine Planning
Alfie Lockhart is planning a new music magazine targeting 16-25 year olds interested in hip-hop and rap. The magazine will focus on genres like hip-hop and rap, featuring artists such as Kanye West and Drake.

Alfie has chosen Bauer Media Group to publish the magazine due to their connections to other magazines and media.

This document provides summaries of various music magazines and their target audiences:
- Q Magazine targets older music buyers aged 34 and focuses on modern music. Bauer Media Group also publishes Mojo and Kerrang.
- NME magazine targets men aged 17-30 with rock, alternative and indie music news. Published weekly with over 7 million online views per month. Time Inc. UK also publishes Uncut.

Market research
This document provides information about various UK music magazines, including their target demographics, average circulations, and publishers. It lists NME, Kerrang!, Q, Mojo, BBC Music Magazine, Clash, Classical Music Magazine, and Loud and Quiet, and provides data showing NME and Mojo have the highest circulations over 20,000 and 90,000 respectively, while the most common publisher is Bauer Media.
An overview of the music magazine industry
Bauer Media produces rock and alternative music magazines like Kerrang! and Mojo, targeting 16-30 year old males. IPC Media publishes NME and Uncut, specializing in multiplatform promotion. Future PLC produces guitar and classic rock magazines such as Total Guitar and Classic Rock for musicians aged 16-50.
Broken records magazine pitch (original)
Broken Records Magazine is a proposed North London music magazine focusing on 80s rock and roll. It will include interviews with popular and up-and-coming solo artists and bands, as well as details on local music events like concerts and festivals. The target audience is 20-55 year old men passionate about the North London music scene and 80s rock, as well as older adults aged 60+ who enjoyed the genre in its prime. The magazine will be marketed through social media platforms and sold for £5 per issue or £45 for an annual subscription to stand out among competitors in the saturated rock magazine market by focusing specifically on the North London scene.
Task 5
Kerrang! is a UK-based magazine published weekly since 1981 that is devoted to rock music. It was initially focused on the new wave of British heavy metal and hard rock acts. Kerrang! primarily appeals to a young, male audience aged 16-24 that is interested in rock music and bands. The magazine includes album reviews, interviews, gossip and photos of popular rock bands. It aims to have an edgy style that appeals to rock fans and has been a commercially successful publication.
Researching into music magazines
NME magazine would be the most suitable to feature the band Monaco Bears. NME targets an audience of 17-30 year olds, which matches the band's target of 15-24. It focuses on indie and rock music like Monaco Bears. As a weekly magazine, NME keeps up with new bands and provides regular coverage. While other magazines like Q and Kerrang could also expose the band, they have broader musical focuses or demographics that are less aligned with Monaco Bears' style and intended audience. NME offers the best fit to promote the emerging indie rock band.
Publishing research
IPC Media publishes several magazines including NME, which focuses on music. NME was originally a newspaper that transitioned to a magazine format, and was the first British publication to include music singles charts. It has both print and digital readers, who are primarily male aged 15-34.
Bauer Media publishes magazines like Kerrang! and Mojo that also focus on music. Kerrang! began as a rock music supplement and now has over 345,000 readers, most commonly aged 15-24. Mojo covers classic rock and newer artists, and has a wider audience from 15-54 years old.
The document analyzes publishers and magazines focused on music content to help decide which company to work with for
Evaluation Question 3
My media product would be published by IPC Media because they already publish magazines similar in content and style, such as NME. As IPC already has an established readership with NME, they could potentially advertise my magazine to those readers. My magazine, called "AUX", would focus solely on unsigned musical acts, filling a niche that no other IPC magazine currently occupies. It would be aimed at young alternative and rock music fans.
Choosing a music magazine
The document discusses researching music magazines to help develop a new pop-rock magazine. It examines several existing magazines like Q Magazine, Rolling Stone, and Blender to understand their conventions and target audiences. Q Magazine combines rock and pop which relates to the planned genre, but there are many rock magazines. Rolling Stone has renowned pop writers contributing to rock coverage, providing diverse content. Blender includes some indie rock along with pop. The research found current rock magazines typically aim at white, British or American men aged 25-30, so the new magazine will target a younger, more female audience aged 16-20 to create a niche market underserved by existing magazines.
Q magazine bauer media- publisher research
This document summarizes several music magazines, including their target audiences, content, and publishing companies. Q Magazine, published by Bauer Media, targets those aged 30+ and includes reviews of music, films, and concerts as well as interviews. Team Rock Magazine focuses on genres like classic rock and metal for an older audience. NME, published by Time Inc., is freely distributed and targets younger indie/rock fans. Mojo, also by Bauer Media, covers various genres monthly for those aged 30+ and distributes internationally. Mixmag focuses on dance music/club culture for those aged 25-35.
Magazine publishers
Bauer Media would be the best publisher for the magazine as they have experience publishing successful music magazines like Q, MOJO, and KERRANG! that target similar audiences to the author's proposed magazine. Bauer Media publishes magazines for men, women, and children, widening the potential audience. IPC Media and the BBC may not be as good of fits due to IPC only publishing one rock magazine already and the BBC's magazines targeting different audiences than a young adult music magazine.
