I have looked at different media institutions and the types of magazines they publish to the public. I researched "publishers for music magazines" and found five popular ones. These were Rhinegold, IPC Media, Quincy Jones, Dennis Publishing, and Bauer Media. The magazine I have most matched my media product with (Blender) is regularly published by Dennis Publishing, however after looking through all of theem I would say that the company Bauer might distribute my media product. They also produce the well known magazines Kerrang, Pop, Mojo, Q. As well as these popular magazines, they publish things for the radio stations Kiss, Magic, Heat and Smash Hits.
With the exception of my magazine, the others are published by Bauer Media. I think that there are a lot of similarities amongst these. The titles are all positioned in the top left hand corner. There is also a stapline that stands out the most on all three because of the size and the positioning. The image on the published magazines are relatively similar to my media product as the lighting is bright and shows the features clearly. 'Q' Magazine uses the main image on the front cover to turn any potential buyer into a paying buyer. My image also is the main function of drawing in any potential buyers and to make them into official statistics of amount of copies sold. Bauer Media has published 'Q' which is my inspiration for it to publish my media product.
