Evaluation

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

I think that due to the wide audience age range, my audience will be mass as opposed to niche.
I feel that Bauer publishing are most likely to publish my magazine as opposed to IPC. I say this because I found that Bauer publishing are very popular in issuing magazines. As I feel that my magazine would fit into the mass category due to its wide age range, I feel that this publishing company in particular would be the most appropriate in producing 'Renegade' as the targeted audience is a vast spread of people.
I discovered that Bauer publishing produce a lot of popular magazines that are based around favoured and current news, and I think that this supports my magazine as 'Renegade' only includes up to date and applicable information on the latest information about artists that are popular today.

After doing some research I uncovered that IP imagine publishing company issue many niche magazines. Some examples of niche magazines are 'Girl Glam' and 'Seventeen'.

 

These magazines are niche, because they only appeal to a particular group of people (potentially young girls that are interested in fashion and makeup). This is not how I would like my magazine to be represented as I feel that Hip- hop applies to anyone who enjoys the music regardless of age or gender. This is why, in my music magazine I have tried to refrain from following the typical rules of magazines such as 'one artist per page rule' and have attempted to attract a wide as possible audience range so that my magazine does not just apply to one particular group of people, and therefore does not become niche.
