Soundcloud is a platform that allows users to democratically upload and access music, enabling ordinary people to contribute their content and listeners to access music for free. It serves as an example of democracy in action as unsigned artists can share their music and gain exposure, such as Ry Legit whose song received over 88,000 listens. However, Soundcloud is only a weak example of a sharing economy since it is difficult for independent artists to directly earn money from the site unless they promote other revenue streams like iTunes downloads or merchandise.

Kickstarter
Kickstarter is a crowdfunding site launched in 2009 that has funded over 78,000 creative projects totaling over $1.5 billion. It allows creators and artists to pitch projects to the public in areas like films, music, art and technology to receive funding. Backers pledge money to projects during the fundraising period, and if the project reaches its funding goal, all backers' pledges are collected. Kickstarter has had a positive impact on the music industry by giving artists a way to get funding when record labels reject them, but it could also negatively impact record labels' profits and artists who lose their underground appeal. The site continues to expand internationally and add more categories over time.

Wikinomics the big ideas
Crowdsourcing platforms allow for free creativity, democracy, and global collaboration. Soundcloud lets users freely upload and remix songs. YouTube gives any user a voice to share videos, which can launch ordinary people to fame if their content goes viral. Kickstarter enables funding of projects from around the world. Spotify combines social sharing, subscriptions, and a large young user base in a "perfect storm" of elements.
Piracy and the music industry
Internet piracy of music developed over time as technology advanced. Early platforms like Napster allowed widespread sharing of music files but faced lawsuits. Later sites like The Pirate Bay also ran into legal issues for facilitating access to copyrighted content. While some argue piracy can boost exposure for smaller artists, studies found it costs the music industry billions annually in lost revenue and jobs. Combating piracy remains an ongoing challenge as new platforms emerge.

Popular social media sites discussed include YouTube, SoundCloud, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

These online platforms have made it easier for niche artists to be discovered and have given artists more freedom to communicate directly with audiences.

Kerning and tracking refer to adjusting letter and word spacing. Bylines provide author information and pull quotes entice readers with excerpts.
Pitch, pitch feedback and style sheet
This document discusses pitching an idea and gaining feedback on the pitch. It recommends posting the pitch online and asking 4-5 target audience members open-ended questions to get their feedback.

A style sheet is also discussed as a way to organize stylistic elements of a magazine in a quick, simple format including fonts, photography examples, and color scheme.
Contents page anaysis
The document discusses the purpose and design of contents pages in magazines. Contents pages are meant to guide readers through the magazine by allowing them to find specific articles and sections. They also indicate the relative importance of articles and can suggest new ones to readers. When designing contents pages, conventions like layout, page numbers, text to picture ratio, sections, color, fonts and images should be analyzed for their effects on the intended audience. Students are asked to mock-up their own contents page that illustrates generic conventions and receive feedback on their choices.
Pitch and Audience Profile Handout
The document provides guidance for creating a pitch for a new music magazine. It lists the key elements that should be included in the pitch: 1) an overview of the magazine concept including genre and market gap; 2) a mood board reflecting the visual style; 3) the producing institution and why they would produce it; 4) a detailed target audience profile; 5) the brand identity and style; 6) possible names; 7) the music genres covered and how; and 8) an example double-page article. The pitch should be visual and avoid long blocks of text. Feedback should be gathered from the target audience.
Pitch and Audience Profile
The document provides guidance on developing a pitch for a music magazine, including creating a moodboard to visualize the concept, identifying the target audience through profiling factors like demographics and psychographics, and researching potential publishing institutions. It discusses considering people, bands, colors, fonts and other elements for the moodboard, and profiling the audience's age, income, interests and other traits. Demographics and psychographics are explained as methods to understand the audience. Developing an audience profile for the proposed magazine is recommended. Potential publishing institutions are advised to be researched, considering if they are national/global, their existing publications, and why they may publish the new magazine.
Student magazines
Student magazines provide an opportunity for students to gain experience in journalism, design, business and more. They allow students to explore their interests, develop new skills and build their resumes/portfolios. Creating and publishing a magazine requires teamwork, planning, creativity and responsibility.
Grade booster stars and stardom
The document discusses the concept of stardom in the music industry. It explains that stars are constructed images meant to sell performers to large, loyal audiences. Stars embody common values like youth, rebellion, talent, and disregard for social norms. The star image is incoherent and incomplete by design, according to Richard Dyer, in order to keep audiences continuously consuming the star's products to try to complete the image. Dyer identifies two key paradoxes - stars must seem both ordinary and extraordinary, and be both present and absent. The incomplete star image positions audiences in relation to social values and keeps them engaged in further consumption.
Submarine revision notes
Submarine was directed by Richard Ayoade and distributed in the UK by Optimum Pictures and in the US by The Weinstein Company. It received funding from various UK sources like Film4 and the UK Film Council due to its pedigree from being based on a novel and having Ben Stiller as executive producer. Though it had a limited release of only 60 screens in the UK and 28 in the US, it was financially successful, making £250,000 in its first 3 weeks in the UK and $467,000 in the US. Director Richard Ayoade was praised for his work and is seen as having potential for future Hollywood films.

Wikinomics and soundcloud
- 1. Soundcloud Soundcloud is an example of democracy as it allows users to access and upload music. Soundcloud is democratised by peering as normal/ordinary people can upload and contribute their music to the site, and it allows users to use the website and listen for free. Allows users to find unsigned artists as well as signed.
- 2. An example is unsigned artist ‘Ry Legit’ who has a variety of uploads with some of his uploads such as ‘The Sweety Man’ having over 88,000 listens. Despite Soundcloud being a sharing platform, it is almost a weak example of Wikinomics as it is hard to see how artists can actually make money from a website such as Souncloud, unless you are a signed artist that can advertise buying songs on iTunes, or advertising links to merch and tours etc. Ry Legit highlights how you can make money if you have iTunes links and merch updates.
