Evaluation, Question 3

There are a few media institutions that may be interested in distributing my media product. Institutions such as Bauer Media and IPC Media produce products similar to mine but nothing exactly alike.
                
                                         










Bauer Media produce Q magazine, which is one of the main influences of my magazine. Q has a similar style and sub-genre to my magazine and so does NME, a magazine produced by IPC Media. However, my magazine also featured unsigned/up and coming artists. It is for this reason that one of these institutions may be interested in producing my magazine. However, I feel that Bauer Media would be more likely to distribute my magazine as they distribute more media products like mine. They also produce Kerrang which is a little different to mine but shares elements. This could make them more interested.

Institutions like Rhinegold Publishing would be unlikely to distributing my magazine, as they focus on niche audiences and my magazine is very mainstream. They publish magazines such as Classical Music and Opera Now.
