Movies or Recordings

My favorite movie of 2009 is the pixar movie Up. I loved it because it showed that older people can still go on an adventure and to continue showing there love to there beloved who passed away. My all time favorite movie of all time is the Indiana Jones series. Those movies were awesome and full of adventure. I saw Up in theaters while I saw Indiana Jones in video.

Magazines

Delin Lin
The name of the magazine would be Piano Fanatics.
The concept of this magazine would be give readers the latest uptate on the world of piano. Also it will include music sheets to the most popular piano song of that week.

This magazine will appeal to everyone as long as they play piano, so in a way this magazine focuses on a very limited group of people. There isn't a lot of piano magazines, but the biggest competition this magazine will most likely have would be Rolling Stones magazine which focuses on every genre of music.
The five advertisers that would be most beneficial to this magazine would be Guitar Center, Sam Ash, apple itunes, Interscope records and Sony music because they all have to do with music one way or another. For example Guitar center is a great place to buy a piano. For premier issue of this magazine i would definietly include an article about mozart and some history on other great piano players. I would then get more modern and talk about the latest piano craze and finally end it with music sheets to the latest piano craze. The articles in this magazine will be about current piano players and past piano players. They will include updates on what hte new piano players are doing and history on what hte older piano players did. The cover of this magazine will be simple and powerful. The cover will have piano keys stretching from one end of the magazine to the other. It would also have a listing on what music sheet is included and what major event in piano is happening that week. There will be no advertisement on the cover, but there can be on the backside. This magazine would hopefully be sold in stores like guitar center or other places that sells instruments.

Week 2 Media Impact

A great media research project that can impact the world is a study of the relation between advertisement and impulsive buying. A good way to test this is to create a lot of advertisement for something that is not a necessity. Then advertise this item on tv radio and anything else that would get peoples attention. The point of this is to see if people would buy something they don't need. If they buy it then advertisement has a huge media impact. This research is considered random sampling and i believe that most people would not buy this item. but of course there will be a few people who do. If people see enough of an ad of something they would eventually give it a try.
