Magazine Institution Research


Magazine institutions from rebecabrowne

What I have learnt:From researching these different magazine institutions I have learnt that different institutions can range in size depending on what they want to publish. This creates a competitive arena for magazine companies who need an institution to publish their magazines so I have took this into consideration when creating my institution logo.

Looking at other institution logo's I have realised that they are simple and professional, they also tend to avoid the overuse of colour and fonts so I will consider this when I create my magazine and I will try to make it look as professional as possible by adding a drop shadow in Photoshop and using simple colours such as Red, Grey and Black which also fits with my intial ideas of colour for my magazine.

What I would base my instituion on?
With the idea that I am creating a regional magazine I have decided to base my insitution on Wenner Media as they produce and distribute only one magazine which is Rolling Stone and it is named after the creator of Rolling Stone, Jann Wenner, which is why I intend to name my institution after me. I believe by starting with my own simple institution I can build it up to create a bigger company.

  1. What have you learned from this about creating your own institution? Has it affected any of your creative decisions at all and which of these institution would you base your product on remembering that you are creating a regional magazine?
