Evaluation - Institutions.

The main magazine that based my magazine on was NME this was the main genre of my magazine. My magazine is mainly and Indie type genre and for NME it is the same. Looking into NME I found that NME is owned by IPC media which is then owned by Time Warner. To find out about NME and IPC media searched it on google and it came up wiht numerous links to different pages each telling me about these institutions. I also had previsouly researched IPC media and Time Warner to help me get an insight on the production of magazines and to help me create my premlinary task magazine.

Looking on google I found the official IPC media website. I have copied and pasted some information from it to show what I researched.


'' IPC Media produces over 60 iconic media brands, with print alone reaching almost two thirds of UK women and 42% of UK men – almost 26 million UK adults – while our websites collectively reach over 20 million users every month.
IPC's diverse print and digital portfolio offers something for everyone, with a focus on three core audiences: men, mass market women and upmarket women.''

     - These are some examples of IPC magazines that they produce now-

(previous research found)



My Simularities between NME and my Music Magazine 'New Rock Times' :
  • Dark colours
  • Coverlines
  • One main image
  • Bold masthead (Both titles abreviated)
  • Both focus on certain genres of music
  • Illustrated coverlines
