1. WHAT KIND OF MEDIA INSTITUTION
MIGHT DISTRIBUTE YOUR MEDIA
PRODUCT AND WHY?
2. A institution is a company that disperses a media
product for audience consumption. I believe that there
is a variety of institutions that would want to distribute
my media product- thriller opening.
The most obvious media institutions that would
distribute my magazine would be publisher, as its free.
WHAT IS INSTITUTION?
3. So for a example a film would go to cinemas either
nationally or internationally, so then after being in the
cinema for while it will then get dispersed to shops to
sell merchandise either DVD or soundtracks, which is
the same for new music.
WHERE WOULD INSTITUTION
DISPERSE A PRODUCT?
4. My target audience is based on early teens to early
adulthood so between 17-24 year olds, so this means I
have to keep the price very reasonable. I believe that my
product will best distributed in stores like WHSmith or
HMV which are specialised for music. I would also like
to publish my music magazine online for everyone else
too see.
5. Using the internet in further use, it makes it more
appropriate to use as more up and coming technology
to distriubute.By using newer technology it targets the
audience that I am a ming for the places, making a
mobile app for my music magazine will expand the
development, by doing this everyone will be able to
read the magazine by a fingertip.
6. In terms of the availability of buying the magazine, the
best way for this would be the option of buying weekly
and keeping a option of buying a subscription. This
allows the customer to pick and choose when they want
to buy the music magazine.
7. I think when publishing my music magazine I had
decided I will be using IPC to distribute my magazine ,
as its known to be the worlds biggest magazine
publisher, as IPC have many inter-links with other
companies to distribute my magazine it could
potentially be easier to get my magazine to be
published/distributed.
8. IPC has distributed many magazines such as NME
which is part of the indie genre anyway, they publish it
on TV channels too. Choosing IPC I can take the
advantage of the connection between the company and
the buyers therefore promoting my magazine with the
well known standard of service the company has.
