C2 Existing Music Magazine Research

Q Magazine

After returning to school I have made sure I have caught up on any work that I missed out due to being in and out of hospital in the previous week.

For homework, I bought the music magazine Q, a magazine that is greatly popular and looks at a wide range of music genres. I read and anaylised the magazine and then looked at the online version. This can be found at http://www.qthemusic.com/

I then wrote an essay comparing the two versions and explaining how they attract their audience as well as identifying who their target audience were.



I found this helpful as in the near future I will be creating my own music magazine. In addition to this I must participate in as much research prior to the final task as I can to make my product to the best quality.

In looking at Q magazine, I made sure that I noticed the positive and negative factors of the magazine in order to help me later on in the task. I think that it is important to not only aknowledge the good factors, but also to understand how some factors inhibit readership consumption as this will only improve my own work.

I am looking forward to the task ahead, but I want to make sure I am more than prepared for the work that is needed to be done.
