Evaluation Question 3

What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?


IPC Media



IPC Media is an international Publishing company that was formed in 1963. Some of their other publications include. More can be read here.
Some other magazines that IPC Media publish are

  • NME
  • Nuts
  • Horse and Hound
  • Chat
  • World Soccer
There are a few reasons for why i choose IPC Media, one is the variety of different types of magazines that they publish showing that they are a well-established publisher and are a good one to work with as they are good at what they do. Another reason for choosing IPC Media is one of these publications, NME, which an already well-established music magazine in the genre of Indie-Rock showing that they already have experience in this genre of music making it easier for them to work with my music magazine with the same genre.
Below are some of the NME covers with the Indie-Rock genre:





 This music magazine is aimed towards the male audience however is still aimed for both genders, it is also aimed mainly for a younger audience interested in the genre of Indie-Rock and this is similar to my own music magazine that i have produced which is good for IPC Media as the audience is something that they are already aiming there existing publications at so is something that they already know well also there is a wide audience that the magazine has meaning that the magazine will appeal to more people meaning more people buying the magazine. Also another reason for IPC Media wanting the publication of my own is that my magazine solely concentrates on the genre of Indie-Rock and appeals to that audience. And as NME does not solely represent Indie-Rock and has a larger audience containing other genre's of music, there is a gap for a individual Indie-Rock magazine bringing a specific target audience wanting a specific Indie-Rock music magazine.
