  • I Built My Sample of Music Albums by Taking All the Albums Listed for a US
    1 I Heard It Through the Grapevine: The Effects of Online Word of Mouth on Music Sales By Elaine Chang An honors thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science Undergraduate College Leonard N. Stern School of Business New York University May 2007 Professor Marti G. Subrahmanyam Professor Vasant Dhar Faculty Advisor Thesis Advisor 2 Abstract: Word of mouth (WOM) has always been one of the most credible and influential sources of information for a consumer. With the advent of the Internet, new mediums of communication, such as blogs and social networking sites, have opened up, allowing more consumers to gather WOM information more easily than ever before. In this study, I examine the usefulness of online WOM, particularly from blogs and social networking sites, in predicting sales in the music industry. I track the changes in online WOM for a sample of 108 albums for four weeks before and after their release dates, and use a linear regression and regression tree to examine the relative significance of online WOM variables on their observation date in predicting album unit sales two weeks after that date. I find that the volume of blog posts about an album is the most consistently significant measure, with each additional blog post corresponding to higher album sales. In addition, I found that greater increases in an artist’s Myspace friends week over week and higher average consumer ratings also corresponded to higher sales. Although evidence supports my hypothesis that online word of mouth can be an important predictor of sales, my study also found that traditional factors are still relevant – albums released by major labels and albums with a number of reviews from mainstream sources like Rolling Stone also tended to have higher sales.

ABRACADABRA: KEY AGENTS OF MEDIATION THAT DEFINE, CREATE, AND MAINTAIN TV FANDOM by DAVID H. GARDNER Under the Direction of Dr. Alisa Perren ABSTRACT From a media industries, fan studies, and emerging socio-cultural public relations perspective, this project pulls back the Hollywood curtain to explore two questions: 1) How do TV public relations practitioners and key tastemaker/gatekeeper media define, create, build, and maintain fandom?; and 2) How do they make meaning of fandom and their agency/role in fan creation from their position of industrial producers, cultural intermediaries, members of the audience, and as fans themselves? This project brings five influential, working public relations and media professionals into a conversation about two case studies from the 2010-2011 television season – broadcast network CBS’ Hawaii Five-0 and basic cable network AMC’s The Walking Dead. Each of these shows speaks to fandom in particular ways and are representative of the industry’s current approaches in luring specific audiences to TV.

  • COMMON MAGAZINE SIZES: There Are Two Standard Sizes for Magazines
    COMMON MAGAZINE SIZES: There are two standard sizes for magazines. Standard Size: 3 7 8 ⁄8” x 10 ⁄8” is an economical and common magazine page size. Digest Size: 3 3 5 ⁄8” x 8 ⁄8” With that being said, magazine sizes often vary from these two standard sizes. Over sized and under sized magazines can be produced and their cost per square inch is almost always higher. As the size of the print run increases, the cost per unit for the magazine will decrease. (Magazines are usually done in page increments of 8 starting with a minimum of 16 pages signatures. It is most cost effective to create your layouts in multiples of 16 (16, 32, 48, etc) because the printer’s form is often 16 pages at a time, 32 pages if the magazine is digest size. PAPER WEIGHT: Standard magazine paper weight can range anywhere from 45# to 100# weight with an average of 50# – 60#. Often the paper stock is coated stock, with a sheen. BINDERY: Saddle Stitched Sewn or stapled through the gutter. This process is good for magazines with fewer signatures/pages. Perfect Bind To perfect bind magazines means to glue bind them in the spine like a paperback book. You can print your files in 16 page signature booklets and when binding, group your signatures, shave off the spine edge, add glue on the spine and attach the cover by wrapping it around the spine. (For this process you must create a separate InDesign file for the cover—this file would be for the 4 pages and the spine which makes up the front cover.
