I have been researching into different magazines such as Q, and Kerrang. Both are published by Bauer Media Group. Bauer Media is a multi-platform media group, with locations across the UK. Following their purchase of Emap in 2007, The Bauer Media Group acquired a collection of media brands, including heat and Grazia as well as a radio portfolio of national radio brands including KISS FM UK and Magic, and regional radio brands across major UK cities. In 2013, Bauer Media also acquired the Absolute Radio Group from Times of India.
Bauer Media also broadcasts TV music channels including The Box TV, in a joint venture with Channel 4. In the UK Bauer Media is the sister company of H Bauer Publishing, who publish titles including Take a Break.
As Bauer Media Group published Q magazine I am looking to use a similar publisher as my magazine is inspired by Q therefore making it a big market magazine so I am sure I will use a well known publisher for my magazine. I will continue to research big publishers until I find the one, even though this may be the one for my magazine already.
I chose them as they supply a range of magazines such as Q
which is my main inspiration for my magazine.
Bauer Media is a multi-platform media Group which has many
companies that focus on two things - Magazines and Radio. I felt like this was
suitable for my magazine as the magazine is so similar to Q and therefore all
music involved with the magazine would feature on radios.
Bauer also distribute Kerrang magazine as well as
Q and I think this would be good for my magazine as the genre of my magazine is
Indie/Rock which fits Kerrang and Q.
Bauer also distribute Empire magazine, a TV and Film
magazine which I think is also key for my magazine as my magazine has a few
pages dedicated to listings of films, which is suitable for my magazine as I will have a feature of a top 50 films at the back of my magazine.
