- The document discusses potential publishing companies for a new music magazine the author has created, aimed at audiences aged 15-25. - It analyzes Bauer Media Group and IPC as potential publishers, comparing their existing music magazine portfolios. - The author concludes that IPC would be the best publisher, as unlike Bauer, IPC does not have a magazine directly comparable to the one created, so it would fill an open market space within IPC's portfolio.

Question 3
Bauer Media Group and Time Inc are potential media companies that could distribute the author's indie magazine. Bauer Media Group manages over 600 magazines globally and distributes Q magazine in the UK, which shares similarities to the author's target audience. Time Inc owns over 100 magazine brands, including NME, an iconic indie magazine, and distributes over 350 million copies annually. The author ultimately chooses Time Inc as it could widely distribute their magazine and help promote it to new audiences given NME's popularity and association with indie music culture.
Music magazine institutions research
Bauer Media Group is a large European media company based in Germany with over 600 magazines and 50 radio/TV stations. One of their popular music magazines is Kerrang!, which focuses on rock music and has a target audience of 15-24 year olds, appealing to both males and females but more so males. Heat is one of their gossip magazines aimed at females ages 16-25.
Time Inc. is a large American publishing company known for magazines like Sports Illustrated and Entertainment Weekly. Their music-focused magazine NME targets mainly 17-30 year old males interested in rock, alternative and indie music. TVTimes is one of their television listings magazines in the UK known for access to television actors.
Powerpoint finished
The magazine will be called "Recollect" and will focus on classic pop music from artists like Kylie Minogue and Lana Del Rey. It will stand out from other classic pop magazines because there aren't many currently. The target audience is young to middle aged females, but the magazine will also interest males who like the featured artists. The publisher chosen is Egmont because of their experience in magazine publishing internationally.

Question 3
Immediate Media would be the best publisher for the media product, a music magazine called INFINITY, targeting mid/late teenage girls. Immediate Media already publishes magazines for this demographic, like Top of the Pops for young teens, and produces mainstream pop magazines. They could advertise INFINITY within their existing popular magazines to build an audience. The budget for INFINITY would start reasonably but increase over time as the magazine grows successful filling an open market space. The magazine would be priced at £3.50 and distributed in stores and online.

Log book
This document provides research and analysis to inform the creation of a music magazine portfolio project. It summarizes the established music magazine NME, including its history, target audience, and unique selling point of introducing new artists. Charts show NME's primarily male readership aged 23.

Unit 01_
Kerrang! is a British rock magazine published weekly by Bauer Media. It was first published in 1981 and takes its name from the sound of a power chord played on an electric guitar. Bauer Media is a large UK-based media group that owns many magazine and radio brands. Kerrang! focuses on promoting rock music genres and informs readers about new bands, music tours and festivals. It includes interviews, reviews, and articles about rock artists. The typical reader is estimated to be 19 years old. Kerrang! is available both in print and digital formats.
unit 1
The document provides information about Q magazine, including:
1) Q magazine was founded in 1986 by Mark Ellen and David Hepworth to cater to the older generation who were still buying CDs, as there was no other magazine targeting that niche audience.
2) The magazine is published monthly in the UK and has a history of association with charitable organizations. Its target audience are people in their 30s and 40s.
3) In addition to interviews, profiles, and reviews, Q magazine also covers music-related news and events like album releases and concerts. It provides readers with information on new music and upcoming artists across various genres.
Question 3
This document discusses two magazines, NME and Q, that focus on indie rock music. NME is described as being fully dedicated to indie rock, while Q covers a broader range of alternative music genres. The document proposes a new indie rock magazine called "Live & Loud" that would rival NME in its content. Times Inc is suggested as the ideal media institution to publish Live & Loud, as they currently publish NME and have a large global reach that could help expose the new magazine to potential readers, especially in the US where the indie rock genre has grown significantly in popularity.
Unit 1- Analysing Media Products and Audiences

Evaluation question 4 updated
The document discusses the target audience for a proposed hardcore music magazine. The target audience is teenagers and young adults aged 15-25 who are interested in the hardcore music scene. The magazine would mainly appeal to male fans, as there are currently more male bands than female bands in hardcore music. The goal is to feature both established and up-and-coming hardcore bands, as well as price the magazine competitively at £3 to attract the target audience.
Analysis pp
The document summarizes information about the weekly British music magazine NME, including its history since 1952, editors, typical readers, and comparisons to rival publications like Q and Mojo magazines.

Primary research
Lucas Kirkland conducted a survey to inform the development of a new music magazine. The survey results showed that:
1) The target audience is 16-17 year olds, but 18-24 year olds are also interested.
2) Images of popular artists and catchy headlines are most important on the front cover.
3) The magazine should be priced between £3-4.
4) Releasing the magazine monthly matches reader preferences.

Q magazine is a popular monthly music magazine published in the UK. It was founded in 1986 by Mark Ellen and David Hepworth and was originally published by EMAP. In 2008, EMAP sold Q and other magazine titles to Bauer Media Group, which remains the publisher. Q magazine focuses on indie, rock, and alternative music. In addition to the print magazine, Q also operates a website and previously had a radio station and TV channel dedicated to music content. The magazine aims to provide exclusive news and interviews to readers in an engaging visual format through its use of photos, design elements, and conversational language when addressing readers.
Speech copy
1. The document presents proposals and designs for two music magazines called Exclusive and Emagazine. For Exclusive, the target audience is predicted to be students aged 15-24 based on statistics from similar magazine Q. The magazine will feature a variety of artists from different eras to appeal to a broad market.
2. For Emagazine, the target audience is also predicted to be students and those in the E, D, and C2 socioeconomic groups based on Hartley's 7 subjectivities. The magazine aims to appeal to "Explorers" who seek new music. It will feature more female artists to attract more female readers compared to the male-dominated Q magazine.
3. Design elements
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.
Unit 13_
- Kerrang! is a British weekly rock music magazine published since 1981 by Bauer Media Group.
- It promotes rock music genres to its primary audience of 15-24 year olds.
- Bauer Media is a large European publisher owning over 600 magazines. Their slogan "We Think Popular" reflects their focus on popular media brands.
Question 3 media
Q magazine would be a suitable media institution to distribute the author's EDM magazine because of similarities in style and target audience. Both magazines have a sophisticated black, red, and white color scheme and place more emphasis on cover text than vibrant colors. While Q magazine features more mainstream artists, its target audience of 29-year-olds from an ABC1 socioeconomic profile is aligned with the author's intended niche audience. Distributing through Q magazine would provide exposure without direct competition despite the different music genres covered.
Tommy Crossley Unit 13
Q Magazine is a monthly music magazine published in the UK by Bauer Media. It has a circulation of around 44,000 and focuses on reporting on new music, artist interviews, and concert reviews. As the largest magazine publisher in the UK, Bauer Media and its magazines like Q face competition from other major publishers including IPC Media, which publishes NME, and Wenner Media, which publishes Rolling Stone. Q targets a readership that is interested in rock and pop music, primarily younger audiences aged 16-21. The magazine maintains a consistent layout with the Q logo and taglines on the cover and uses of colors, images, and fonts internally.
Question 3 edit
The author argues that Bauer Publishing would be a good company to publish their music magazine for several reasons:
1) Bauer Publishing is a large, established company that publishes well-known magazines and would give a new magazine credibility and reputation.
2) The magazine's target audience is a niche not served by other magazines, so would bring in new revenue for Bauer Publishing.
3) Bauer Publishing has an international reach across Europe, the US, and Mexico, allowing potential for international expansion of the magazine.
4) Bauer Publishing is a multimedia company that could help expand the magazine into radio, creating synergies between the two arms of the business.
Unit 13/30 Pitch LO4
The document provides details of two proposed music magazines - ROQ and Tempo. For each magazine, the document outlines the name, target genre, content, frequency of release, target audience and demographic breakdown, production costs, marketing strategy, and 4-week production plan. Key details include that ROQ will focus on rock music and be released weekly, while Tempo will also focus on rock and be released bi-weekly. Both magazines aim to mimic the successful Kerrang! magazine in terms of styles, colors, and target demographics of 15-25 year old males. The document proposes budgets, advertising rates, and copyright procedures for the magazines.
Jessica Sheridan - Unit 30
The document provides circulation figures for the magazine Q between 2011-2014, showing a decline from 80,418 to 48,353. It also discusses the genres and target audience of Q magazine.

Bauer Media Group owns over 500 magazines across 15 countries and sees itself as a market leader in delivering consumer insight across media. [END SUMMARY]
Constitutional Convention
The Constitutional Convention began in 1787 in Philadelphia to improve the failing Articles of Confederation. Led by George Washington, 55 delegates from all states except Rhode Island attended. Key issues divided the states, such as the balance of power between states and federal government, representation in Congress, and the issue of slavery. The delegates debated plans like the Virginia Plan and New Jersey Plan before agreeing to the Great Compromise, which created a bicameral legislature with a House based on population and Senate with two members per state. A final compromise allowed slavery and counted slaves at 3/5 of persons for representation.

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.

Bauer Publishing Group and Egmont UK could potentially distribute the author's pop music magazine targeted at 11-15 year old girls. Bauer produces magazines for various audiences but not currently for this target market, so the magazine could fill a gap in their offerings. Egmont UK specializes in magazines for children and young adults, including a similar pop music magazine, so they understand the genre and target audience. Both companies would be suitable options, though Egmont's experience with this audience makes them particularly well-positioned to distribute the magazine.

Bauer Media and IPC Media are both potential media institutions to distribute a new chart music magazine targeted at teenage girls aged 16-19. IPC publishes NME and Teen Now which have similar target audiences. Bauer publishes Q Magazine and Kerrang!, also targeting similar audiences. Bauer has an advantage through its extensive multi-platform presence across TV, radio, tours and festivals focused on music genres featured in the charts. This diversity would help attract and retain the target audience better than IPC, making Bauer Media the best choice to distribute the new magazine.

Team Rock is a publisher of music magazines that focuses on rock music genres. They aim to please audiences who love rock sounds and create a sense of community for their readers. Their magazines such as Classic Rock and Metal Hammer concentrate more on reviews than interviews. While smaller than Bauer Media and Time Inc., Team Rock would be a good fit for the author's new music magazine because they have space for additional magazines and understand how to ensure quality content and distribution to the right audience without direct competition from their other titles.
Evaluation - Question Three
Bauer would be a good potential publisher for the author's magazine. Bauer publishes over 300 magazines across multiple countries and platforms, including some magazines similar to the author's proposed magazine, such as Kerrang!, which targets a similar audience. While the author's magazine wouldn't be identical, it could expand Bauer's market. The author chose Bauer over IPC Media because Bauer has more experience publishing magazines in the same genre and targeting a similar audience. The author's magazine would compete with magazines like NME, Q and Rocksound by having a lower price, a fortnightly rather than weekly or monthly schedule, and an online presence to engage audiences across multiple platforms.
What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
Immediate Media and Bauer are both potential media companies to distribute a new music magazine. Immediate Media produces 34 magazines with 76 million annual sales and 33 million monthly website views. They produce two music magazines but for different audiences than the proposed magazine. Bauer produces over 300 magazines internationally and owns successful radio and TV brands. They produce Mojo and Q magazines but for audiences different than the proposed magazine. While both companies could effectively distribute the magazine, Bauer is selected because they offer opportunities in other media and the magazine would fill an untapped genre niche, while Immediate Media may view it as too similar to an existing magazine.

Question three
- 1. What kind of media institution might distribute your media produce and why?
- 2. About my product My task was to create a music magazine front cover, contents page and double page spread. I used the existing magazine Q to help me create a magazine which I believe would survive in today’s market.
- 3. Where would my magazine fit in? I created my magazine to suit a young audience, ranging from 15 – 25. I did this as this is one of the largest populations strongly influenced by music. From looking at the front cover of my magazine it shows big band names which would appeal to the younger audience. It also has that element that may appeal to an older audience as well, for example the cover line ‘100 most inspirational women in rock’. This appeals as they are more likely to have been brought up with the likes of Debbie Harry from Blondie. The front cover has a simplistic touch as it is not over crowded with images and text but shows the basics which I believe a more sophisticated audience would be attracted too. But the young model and clothing she is wearing feels more working class and casual, nothing special. Furthermore, my double page article has a lighter tone that a younger audience would relate to better than an older audience. The casual writing and informal question and answer process is light hearted and very much in tone with today. This is also down to the fact that my artist is also young allowing the audience to relate to her and idolize her.
- 4. What product is the closest to the one I have created? From looking at other music magazines I have decided that Q magazine is the closest one to my end product. This is mainly because of the layout. Like most front covers of Q the cover lines are placed down the sides of the model who is positioned exactly in the centre. The cover line at the top right is very similar to mine as it talks about the ‘GREAT’ British songwriter and below is the cover line ’50 ultimate British songs’ both of which link to my cover like of ‘100 most inspirational women in rock’. The mastheads are also similar as they both use the simplistic white letter on a coloured background.
- 5. Publishing companies Bauer Media GroupCurrently the worlds largest media group publishing 323 magazines in 15 different countries. Bauer has two main operations in the UK, `H Bauer Publishing’ which publishes things such as `Bella’ and `Take a Break’. But the one I am interested in is `Bauer Consumer Media’ which publishes top music magazines `Q’, `Kerrang’ and `Mojo’. My main focus is on the magazine `Q’ as it is a similar product to my own. It is a monthly publication which in 2009 final quarter sold 94,811. It is a multi genre, multi age demographic. Its best selling publication is `Mojo’ selling 98,484 in its 2009 final quarter.Obviously this magazine is capable of selling such products and I feel that my magazine will do particularly well here, on the other hand as my magazine is similar to `Q’ I feel that I may need to look for an opening somewhere else. IPC This is currently the largest magazine publishing company in Britain. Operating more than 60 magazines in the UK alone, being read by roughly 40% of the population a year. Selling more than 350 million magazines a year this company seems more than capable of selling mine. The two magazines I am interested in are `NME’ and `Uncut’. `NME’ is a weekly publication that focuses on `indie’ rock with a 16-25 age demographic selling 38,486 in its 2009 final quarter. `Uncut’ is IPC’s version of `Mojo’. A monthly publication selling 75,518. Focusing on classic rock it aims at at age demographic of 25+. This magazine is defiantly one to consider as it is the largest magazine company in Britain, it also does not sell a magazine like mine so it has an open market. On the other hand its sales do not seem to be as high as those of `Bauer Media Group’.
- 6. Conclusion In conclusion I would like IPC to publish my magazine. It has a clear opening in it’s market for a magazine like mine compared to Bauer which has `Q’ already and would show competition in the company between magazines. IPC would be perfect for my magazine and I think it will do well here bringing in good sales.
