Uses of Gratification in my Music Magazine

Uses of Gratification:

My music magazine is about musicals with the music genre show tune,which we all know if clearly linked with the entertainment business.

Entertainment is one of the biggest uses of gratification within my magazine.My magazine will be very time consuming and a escape from reality.The musical genre for some people can be a emotional release as the songs and show develops.The enetertain feild can also be relaxing.

Information:Gaining knowlege through a newspaper of magazine kind of gives us a sense of secruitry as although we do this sub contiously like to keep tabs on people and know what they are up to.Also while sub coniously reading a magazine we are gaining knowlege so when theres information anywhere and we read it we are actually self learning.gaining knowledge may alos solve some life problems like seeking advice from advice problems or listening to people expressing there story might encorage you as well.also finding out about whats going on around you mostly is gained from reading so theres another use from the magazine.Overall just helping cure the general curiousity.

Another use of gratification is social interaction:like playing a video gaming and seeing other avartars and communicating is another interaction.also in terms of social interaction and social newtworking being able to interactwith family and friends that aren't close by is a type of social interaction.In my magazine it's like gaining a sense of belonging so talking directly to the audience would help my magazine be interactive.

Personal Identity:To gain a sense of how to act in public.Mainly people look up to people in a magazines therefore any magazines with people on the cover presents a model of behaviour which i know i can put in my magazine,which is also identifying with media's role models.looking up to models can also help you gain an insight in yourself which in a way can also build your confidence and if a magzine is in the much dept it can help you hold onto them quality's that you have from reading and listening to different medias.
