Media Institution

s

Time Inc. (Formerly IPC Media) Time Inc. is an American New York-based publishing company. It publishes over 90 magazines, including NME.

I think this might be a good institution to distribute my magazine, as they would be able to target a huge audience as they make so many different magazines catering for different peoples interests. I think it would be good if they distributed a magazine that focused on just Pop music, which is the genre of magazine I plan to make, as this would be different to NME, as they include a variety of genres meaning they have no specific target audience for that magazine, therefore I think they should make a magazine that appeals to a specific audience, which I think should be pop music as this is the most popular genre of music based on my survey.

Bauer Bauer media group is a large European-based media company with its headquartered in Hamburg, Germany that manages a portfolio of more than 600 magazines, over 400 digital products and 50 radio and TV stations around the world. Which includes kiss FM, 4 music, and Heat magazine, as well as music magazines Q and Kerrang

Having such experience in the music industry would make Bauer a great institution to distribute my magazine, also they don’t have a music magazine that focuses on just pop music, as Q looks at everything in the charts, which could include rock, rap or other genres, this might put people off buying the magazine if they like only pop music, therefore I think they should distribute a pop magazine.
