The document discusses which media institution would be best to distribute a new country music magazine. IPC Media is discussed as an option since they have experience publishing niche magazines including music titles. However, Bauer Media is selected since they have published more music magazines and could better promote a new country music title, as there is currently no such magazine in the British market. While American Media Inc also focuses on country music, they are US-based so would not be practical for a British magazine.

Question 3
There are 4 main magazine distribution companies in the UK. Bauer Consumer Media would be the best choice to distribute the author's new indie music magazine, as they have an international reach and lack of similar magazines currently. Though Bauer distributes some music magazines, the author's magazine would appeal to a different audience than their current offerings which focus on heavier rock/metal or older musicians.
Evaluation question 3
The document discusses potential media companies that could distribute a new music magazine. Bauer Media Group is suggested because it specializes in music magazines like Kerrang! and Q, which have a similar rock music genre and focus on style. Time Inc. is also proposed as it owns IPC Media, which publishes the music magazine NME, and its wide distribution could help sell the new magazine. Big Cheese Publishing is also discussed but may not provide as much support as a larger conglomerate.
Evaluation question 3
Bauer Media would be the best institution to distribute the product. As the largest privately owned publishing group in Europe, they own over 300 magazines across 15 countries, including popular music magazines like "Q", "Mojo", and "Kerrang". While similar to "Kerrang" in focusing on rock/metal music, the product targets less mainstream, up-and-coming bands, carving out its own niche audience. Bauer Media's expertise in music publishing makes them well-suited to promote an independent rock magazine.
4A IPC and Bauer
IPC has published magazines targeting various interests and audiences over the years, including hobbies, sports, and music. They published magazines like NME to tap into the flourishing music scene in the 1900s, appealing to a wider range of readers. IPC would be an appropriate publisher for a new music magazine as they have experience working with NME and publishing magazines across a wide range of genres like pop and hip hop. Alternative publishers like Bauer may also be suitable given their experience with music magazines like Kiss and Kerrang! and insights into music fans from surveys of the industry.
Evaluation
Bauer Media would be the best media institution to distribute the media product IMMERSE. Bauer Media publishes popular music magazines like Kerrang!, Mojo, and Q that target a similar audience to IMMERSE. They are well known in the music industry with 20 radio stations. Their high quality printing is also important for IMMERSE since it focuses heavily on photos. IPC Media and Rheingold Publishing would not be as suitable, as IPC's magazines only share some of the same audience while Rheingold focuses on classical music, differing from IMMERSE's target genre.
Question 3
The document discusses potential media institutions that could distribute a music magazine focused on rap music. It analyzes Bauer Media Group and TimeInc.UK, which both currently publish music magazines. While Bauer Media Group publishes magazines in similar genres, it does not have any focused solely on rap music. TimeInc.UK publishes NME, which includes some rap content, and targets both teenage and adult audiences. Therefore, distributing the rap music magazine through TimeInc.UK could maximize its popularity by expanding the company's music offerings and appealing to both young and old readers.
CONDE NASTE
The document discusses four major magazine publishers - IPC, Bauer Media, The National Magazine Company, and Conde Naste. It analyzes each publisher and determines that Conde Naste would be the best choice to distribute a new rock music magazine. Conde Naste does not already publish similar magazines, so the new magazine could become their leader in the music market. It would also receive worldwide distribution and promotions, expanding its audience and increasing sales and profits. The prestige of the Conde Naste name would further boost the magazine's success.
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.

Bauer Media would be the most suitable media institution to distribute the IMMERSE magazine because they own popular music magazines like Kerrang! and Mojo that target a similar audience. While IPC Media publishes music magazines, they lack diversity, and Rheingold focuses on classical music rather than the genres covered by IMMERSE. Bauer is well known in the music industry, has high quality printing required for IMMERSE's photos, and the magazine's content and audience would fit with Bauer's other music publications.
What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
Bauer Media would be a suitable media institution to distribute the magazine because it is a large, multinational company with a long history of distributing magazines worldwide. While it already distributes similar music magazines like Kerrang, this also means they have experience reaching the target audience. However, the magazine may not stand out amongst the other offerings. IPC Media is also an option, as it distributes magazines only in the UK, but does not have any similar music magazines. Bauer Media is ultimately preferred over IPC Media as it is larger and distributes more modern music magazines that align better with the style of the new magazine.
Media institutions
IPC Media is a large UK publisher formed in 1963 that publishes magazines across a variety of genres and target audiences. Their most popular magazines are aimed at younger males and females, such as NME and Nuts. As NME has been published for many years, IPC would be a suitable publisher for a new music magazine given their expertise, though they may not want to publish a magazine that directly competes with NME. They tend to target the 16-25 age range with magazines focused on relevant music genres.
Evaluation question 3
The author would distribute their rock magazine through Bauer Media because they produce similar magazines like Q and Mojo. Bauer Media would be a good fit since they target the author's audience of teenagers with their music magazines. The magazine would be sold in newsagents and supermarkets, which segment magazines by type, though it may be challenging to succeed against established titles.
Institutions
IPC Media and Bauer Media Group would be good choices to distribute the magazine because they both have experience publishing music magazines. While IPC Media releases most magazines weekly or monthly and the new magazine would be every two weeks, they have gaps in their portfolio for a magazine targeting both men and women with a dance music genre. Bauer Media operates internationally and has room for a dance-focused magazine. Overall, IPC Media is selected as they could attract the target audience and have a track record of profitable magazines.
Question 3
WorldWide Magazine Distribution would likely distribute the music magazine product because they distribute similar magazines focused on music and target the same UK audience. As the product would be based in the UK, distribution costs would be lower than an American-based magazine. IPC Media may publish the product to fill a gap in their portfolio for a magazine targeted towards women. While they publish gossip magazines, the music magazine would add diversity. NME magazine is chosen for comparison because it focuses on music, has a similar target audience, and is already distributed by WorldWide and published by IPC Media, indicating they may also distribute and publish the new women-focused music magazine product.
Task 4
IPC has a long history publishing magazines targeting specific demographics and interests. In the 1800s, their newspapers targeted educated white males, while later magazines addressed hobbies like gardening, shooting, and rail travel typically aimed at upper class white audiences. IPC would be an appropriate publisher for a new music magazine due to their financial backing and experience publishing titles like NME over 200 years. Their wide distribution across platforms and ability to promote new magazines would increase chances of success. However, directly competing with their existing successful rock magazine NME may be challenging. Alternative publishers like Bauer Media have also published highly successful music magazines like Q and Kerrang spanning a variety of music genres over their long history.
Evaluation question 3
Bauer Media Group publishes magazines similar in genre to the author's music magazine, such as Q and Mojo, but because Bauer has other similar magazines, pitching to them may be difficult. TimeIncUK only publishes one music magazine, NME, which is shorter than the author's, so publishing with TimeIncUK would expand their music offerings. TimeIncUK magazines also focus on specific genres, suggesting they would be more likely to publish a magazine focused on a particular music genre. Therefore, TimeIncUK would be the better choice to distribute the author's music magazine.
Publishers
- Bauer Media Group is a large European media company based in Hamburg that owns magazines, TV channels, and digital products worldwide
- It has a 50% stake in The Box Plus Network in the UK, which includes music channels like 4Music, The Box, and Kiss
- Bauer publishes magazines like Q, which focuses on indie/rock/alternative music, and Kerrang, which focuses on rock
- Given its experience publishing similar music magazines, Bauer would be well-suited to publish an alternative rock magazine and promote it across its media platforms.
Publishing houses evaluation
Conde Nast should consider publishing the author's music magazine as it would fill a gap in their portfolio. While Conde Nast's current magazines target sophisticated readers, a youth music magazine could expand their audience. As one of the largest magazine publishers without a music title, Conde Nast would not have to compete with their existing magazines and could challenge other large publishers in the genre.
Publication plan
The document outlines publication plans for a music magazine called "Slapback with Nina bold font". It will be published weekly and sold for £3.40 in various retail stores to reach its target audience of music fans. The informal magazine style will balance images and text to inform readers about new indie bands, music news/events, and feature articles on popular rock artists through an entertaining yet professional tone. Regular content will include ads, competitions, upcoming music, industry jobs/trips, band photos/updates.
Question 3
IPC would be the best media institution to distribute my music magazine because they currently distribute magazines like NME that have a similar target audience and content as my magazine. Both NME and my magazine focus on indie music genres and appeal to a niche audience of 15-30 year olds. Distributing with IPC would allow my magazine to reach an existing audience familiar with NME and increase the chances of people buying it.
Question 3
Media distributors are companies that publish various media products such as films, magazines, and television. Some distributors specialize in only one type of media while others distribute a wide range. This document discusses several potential media distributors for a new pop music magazine targeted at teenagers, including Bauer Media, Immediate Media, and Egmont Media. Bauer Media and Immediate Media are identified as the best options as they have room in their catalogs for another music magazine aimed at younger audiences. Immediate Media in particular is highlighted for having a small selection of music magazines currently.
Evaluation 3
Bauer and IPC Media are potential distributors for the author's new dubstep magazine. While neither distributes a similar magazine currently, Bauer distributes popular music magazines like Kerrang!, Q and MOJO. Bauer's wide range of media platforms could help advertise the new magazine. IPC Media distributes the well-known music magazine NME but lacks Bauer's variety of advertising opportunities. Ultimately, the author chooses Bauer as the distributor due to their success with music magazines and ability to promote across multiple media platforms.
Publishing companies
The major publishers of music magazines in the UK include:
- Time Inc. UK which publishes NME
- Bauer Media Group which publishes Kerrang, Q, and Mojo
- Immediate Media which publishes Top of the Pops
- Development Hell Ltd which publishes Mixmag
- Team Rock which publishes Classic Rock, Prog, Metal Hammer, and Blues
Media Institution Who Would Distribute My Product
Immediate Media Company (IMC) would be a good potential distributor for the magazine because they already publish magazines in the same pop genre and target audience. IMC is an established and respected modern company. However, IMC's magazine "Top of the Pops" is similar competition. Time Inc. is also a potential distributor as they have experience distributing over 350 million magazines annually. They publish magazines like NME in a different genre so would have space in the market for the new magazine. Time Inc. is also a large prestigious company that could provide publicity. The magazine would cost around the same price as other magazines to appeal to the target audience.
Q3 ev al pp
Bauer Media Group could effectively distribute a new music magazine due to their extensive experience and international reach. As the UK's largest media publisher, they have the resources and distribution networks to launch the magazine worldwide. While Bauer publishes several music magazines, they do not target a teenage/young adult demographic and most focus on specific genres. The proposed new magazine, Launch!, would fill gaps in Bauer's portfolio by targeting a younger audience with a variety of music genres. Its weekly publication schedule at a low price also differs from Bauer's existing higher-priced monthly magazines. Distributing Launch! could attract new audiences and generate additional revenue for Bauer.
Question 3 hattie gibson
The document discusses potential publishers for a new music magazine. It considers Bauer, which has experience distributing similar magazines like Kerrange and MOJO. Bauer doesn't currently have a magazine focused on mainstream, top 40 music, so the new magazine could fill a niche. It also looks at IPC, the publisher of the popular NME magazine. While NME's target age range of 15-45 is broader than the new magazine's target of 15-21 year olds, IPC has experience with this genre. Distributing through IPC could also leverage NME's large, interested audience and allow the magazines to work together and provide feedback.
Question 3
Immediate Media Company was formed in 2011 by merging Origin Publishing, Magicalia, and BBC Magazines, and they currently distribute Top of the Pops magazines. The document discusses several potential magazine distributors and their experience with pop magazines, including EMAP International Limited, BBC Magazines, Bauer Media Group, and NME. Overall, Immediate Media Company is recommended as the best choice to distribute a new pop music magazine due to their experience distributing Top of the Pops, while Bauer Media Group could also be a potential option due to their global reach across 16 countries.

Bauer Media would be well-suited to distribute the media product due to their large reach and experience with music magazines, however distributing another similar magazine would make it a competitor to their existing successful titles. IPC may have less experience than Bauer Media but there is a gap in the market for their music magazine titles, and they have experience and customers interested in indie/rock music that could be interested in the new magazine, making it a good addition for IPC.
Question 3
IPC Media would be the best publisher for the author's indie music magazine because while Bauer Media publishes larger, more established music magazines and has a presence in radio and television, IPC only publishes one popular indie magazine, leaving room for another to draw in more of the indie music audience. IPC is also the UK's leading consumer magazine publisher, selling 350 million magazines per year.
Question 3
The document considers three potential media institutions to distribute a new pop music magazine: IPC Media, Bauer, and BBC Magazines. IPC Media publishes the successful music magazine NME but has room for another music title. Bauer's most successful music magazine is Q and also has experience with other music brands. BBC Magazines publishes the very popular Top of the Pops magazine and may be interested in pop music. The document concludes Bauer has the most experience with music products and would best promote a new pop magazine.
Task 4
IPC has published magazines across many genres over the years, including sporting, lifestyle, home/gardening, music/media, and hobbies magazines. They have experience targeting niche audiences. IPC would be a suitable publisher for a new music magazine because of their expertise in niche markets and history publishing music magazines like NME. They are likely to publish magazines focused on specific genres like indie/rock or pop to appeal to targeted audiences. Alternative publishers like Bauer may also be suitable as they publish a variety of music magazines at lower prices and have experience with different audiences. The document discusses developing a pop music magazine, noting that Top of the Pops magazine is an example of an existing pop magazine and that its publisher,
IPC
IPC has been associated with magazines targeting various audiences, including magazines related to hobbies such as horse riding, shooting, yachting, gardening, cycling, and photography. These magazines generally target middle and upper class males with interests in the hobby. IPC also publishes lifestyle and health magazines targeting women aged 16-30. IPC publishes a wide range of magazines in genres like country pursuits, fashion, home interests, sports, entertainment, and music. In general, IPC magazine audiences are middle to upper class with disposable income.
Eval q3
Bauer Media would be the best media institution to distribute my rock music magazine for teenagers. While Bauer already publishes the similar weekly magazine Kerrang!, my monthly magazine differs in focusing on unique content like galleries and meet and greets. Bauer also has an established young, music-loving audience that would be likely to purchase my new magazine and generate profits. In contrast, Time Inc. UK's magazines are aimed at older audiences and do not have the target readership for a youth music publication.
Task 4 a ipc media
The document discusses the IPC Media and its association with various magazine genres including country, fashion, lifestyle, home, sports, teen, and music magazines. It notes that the IPC has successfully published the music magazine NME for over 53 years, demonstrating that it is a capable publisher. However, it only focuses on rock and indie music genres. Developing a magazine covering a broader range of music genres like pop, rap, and reggae could attract more readers. Alternative publishers like Bauer Media may also be appropriate since they have more experience publishing music magazines and partnerships with music organizations.
Media evaluation question 3
Bauer Media and IPC are two of the largest media institutions in the UK that were considered to distribute the author's new music magazine product. [1] Bauer publishes over 300 magazines across 15 countries, including popular music magazines like Kerrang!, MOJO and Q. [2] IPC publishes over 350 million copies per year of magazines like NME, Nuts and Uncut in the UK. [3] Ultimately, the author chooses Bauer Media to distribute the new magazine because their magazine Q is published monthly, leaving less competition, and Bauer has a wider range of magazines targeting the intended audience.
Question three
IPC Media or Bauer Media would be good choices to distribute the magazine because they are large, global media companies that can expose the niche music and fashion magazine to a wide audience across multiple countries. IPC Media distributes popular magazines in similar genres and is always looking for new titles, while Bauer Media reaches 15 countries and 300 magazines, allowing the new magazine to find readers internationally. Their broad networks and experience with music magazines in particular make them well-suited to help build an audience for the unique new magazine.
Question 3
Two media institutions, IPC Media and Bauer Media, could potentially distribute the magazine. IPC Media publishes over 350 million copies annually and has experience with music magazines like NME. Their "Inspire" division focuses on men, which may be a good audience for the magazine. Bauer Media already distributes similar music magazines and has expanded successfully in the UK. Their knowledge of the market and distribution networks in the UK and worldwide would help spread the magazine. Bauer also has subsidiaries in television and radio, which could provide additional exposure for the musical content of the magazine.
Tasks 4&5
The document discusses researching Q Magazine as inspiration for a new music magazine. Q Magazine is described as an alternative music magazine published monthly in the UK with a "grown up" and formal style. Examples of Q Magazine covers, contents pages, and articles are provided. Two potential publishers, Bauer Media Group and IPC, are compared, with IPC seen as more suitable since they only publish one music magazine currently. Ideas for the new magazine's name, genre, and potential article types are then brainstormed.
Evaluation 3
The document discusses two large UK publishing houses, Bauer Media and IPC Media, to distribute a new pop/mainstream music magazine targeted at 16-25 year olds. Bauer Media is selected as the most suitable partner as it reaches 19 million UK adults weekly, has no existing pop magazines, and could help the new magazine gain reputation. In contrast, while IPC Media also has a large audience, its music magazine NME covers similar topics to the new magazine, risking poor sales performance.
Evaluation q3 done
Bauer Media Group would be the best media distributor for my dance music magazine. Bauer is a large European company that distributes over 300 magazines across 15 countries, including music magazines like Kerrang. Though Bauer doesn't currently focus on dance music magazines, distributing my magazine could be a good opportunity for them to target a new audience. EMAP, which is now owned by Bauer, may be less suitable as they specialize more in business publications. Similarly, while Time Inc. publishes music magazine NME, it targets an older, more mature audience that differs from my intended younger audience.
Music industries and institutions
IPC has been associated with magazines targeting a variety of audiences over the years, including magazines related to fashion/beauty, home interests, lifestyle, sports, TV entertainment, and women's interests. They also published magazines targeted at middle-aged men and women in the 1800s-1900s. IPC would be an appropriate publisher for a new music magazine because they have experience targeting different audiences and have published successful music magazines like NME in the past. They are likely to publish a music magazine targeting males interested in rock/indie genres, or may target a different genre to expand their audience.
Music industries and institutions
IPC Media is a large UK publisher formed in 1963 that publishes magazines across various genres and target audiences. They would be a suitable publisher for a new music magazine given their long-running success with NME, but they would not want to publish a magazine that directly competes with NME for readership. They have expertise in creating magazines for music fans aged 16-25 years old but would likely only publish a magazine in a genre not directly covered by NME, such as R&B, to avoid cannibalizing its own sales.
Question 3
Bauer Media would be the best company to distribute the magazine. They distribute Q magazine, which covers a diverse range of music genres similar to the magazine. Distributing a magazine like Q means Bauer Media understands how to effectively distribute a magazine with varied music content. While ICP also distributes music magazines, their magazines each focus on a single genre, unlike the magazine, so Bauer Media is a better fit.
Ipc
IPC has published magazines targeting various audiences over the years, including magazines related to hobbies typically appealing to middle and upper class males. These include magazines about horses, shooting, yachting, gardening, cycling, photography, and railways. IPC also publishes health and lifestyle magazines targeted towards women ages 16-30. IPC would be an appropriate publisher for a new music magazine due to their experience publishing NME for over 60 years. They would likely publish a pop/chart music magazine given their experience targeting female audiences through women's magazines.

Media evaluation q3x
A media institution is a company that produces various media products like films, magazines, and websites for a target audience. Examples of media institutions for music magazines include IPC Media (now TimeInc.Uk), which publishes magazines like NME, and Bauer, the largest privately owned European publisher of magazines like Kerrang and Q.
The document discusses a magazine focused on famous 21st century rap artists, including interviews, events, reviews and news. Due to budget constraints, it can only afford an in-depth interview with the new rap artist featured on the cover. The goal is to both update fans and promote this up-and-coming artist, Mc Subeef.
Hip Hop Weekly would be a suitable media
Question 3
The document discusses several potential magazine distributors for a new pop music magazine called "Pop Life". It analyzes Immediate Media Company, EMAP International Limited, BBC Magazines, Bauer Media Group, and NME as options. It ultimately recommends Immediate Media Company as the best choice as they currently distribute one of the top pop magazines and would provide the most recognition. Plans are also outlined to create social media accounts, a website, and a mobile app to promote Pop Life.

Question 5
The document discusses how the magazine cover and interior pages were designed to attract the target audience. Key points include:
- The cover uses bold, feminine colors and a friendly main image to catch readers' eyes. Focus groups confirmed these design choices appealed to the target demographic.
- Interior pages also employ rule of thirds layout, consistency in house style and color scheme, and many images to engage readers as focus groups desired.
- Features like contests, pull quotes, and sections on music, fashion and gossip would interest the audience. Informal language and an exclusive interview further attract readers.
- Overall the document emphasizes how feedback from focus groups informed design choices to make the magazine visually appealing and relevant to its

Graphs
The respondent distributed questionnaires to 10 females aged 25-35 to learn what they look for in music magazines, particularly those focused on country music. The results showed that the readers listen to a variety of female artists like Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood as well as male artists like Keith Urban and Kenny Chesney. Most respondents said they would pay between £1-3 for a magazine and expressed interest in competitions, exclusive news, and information on upcoming concerts. They preferred magazine covers with bright colors and images of key artists over instrumental props or dark colors.

Dizzie rascal
This document provides an analysis of the front cover of NME magazine from September 2009, which features urban artist Dizzie Rascal. Some key points:
1) The classic masthead establishes familiarity while the inclusion of Dizzie Rascal introduces readers to a new genre of music.
2) Visual elements like the graffiti background, Dizzie's costume, and pull quote help convey his urban/rap style within NME's usual indie/rock focus.
3) Cover lines use different fonts and "more" to entice readers and convey the magazine's extensive coverage of music news and reviews.
4) Composition follows the rule of thirds for a stylish, engaging

Question 3
- 1. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
- 2. IPC Media may distribute my magazine because they have already published successful music magazines such as NME and Uncut and similarly have a long history within magazine publishing especially in niche magazines such as fishing and sport. This can therefore be ideal for my music magazine which is not only niche due to it being a specific hobby however also because country music is a very specific genre. Bauer Media however would distribute my magazine more perhaps since they have published more music magazines compared to IPC Media such as Empire, Mojo, Kerrang and Q therefore they have more experience within the market and therefore could give my magazine the push it needs. Similarly there is a gap in the British market for a country music magazine therefore not only would it not clash with their other music magazines but also it would be great for them to embrace a new genre with a new target audience. Therefore I chose them as the company to distribute my magazine. I also looked at American Media Inc as they publish Country Weekly and therefore have an idea about this specific market however decided to go for Bauer as they again publish more music magazines and similarly are within the European market where as American Media Inc only has magazines within the US which would not work for my British magazine due to difficulty in distribution and consequent cost implications.
