For my audience research i am giving myself around 10 days for the whole section.
For categorisation i'm going to be looking into how music magazines are presented to target audiences by using the layouts/colour schemes according to different genres and types. For consuming habits i will be researching into consuming habits by looking at what the consumers gets out of the magazine like what they're looking for and what they do with it after purchased. I will also be researching Audience effects theories like "Uses and Gratifications Theory". I will also be looking into Audience interests possibly by interview/questionaires/direct questioning. Expectations/Engagement and Audience profiling is also other subjects i will be researching into to gain knowledge of what the audience wants.
(20th November-30th November)
For my Institution research i am giving myself around 10 days to complete.
For key companies i am going to looking into popular publishing companies for magazines like "IPC Media". Regulation and companies which means making the magazine appropriate with no swearing or nudity otherwise it could offend the consumer and put people off from buying it. i will also be researching Production processes, Distribution processes and marketing and promotion.
(1st December-17th December)
And again for the 3 case studies i will be giving myself around 17 days depending on time-consuming each of the three subjects are to complete. I will be choosing an appropriate subject according to what is appropriate for the print based main task.
