The Comedy Market

• The highest grossing genre of films from 1995-2011

• The average film makes over £25,000,000

• Comedy films have over 23% of the market share of films

Why Comedy?

•People love to laugh – over 100,000 people visited the Edinburgh Fringe to see over 100 stand-up shows.

•Comedy stars constantly make millions from tours.

Competition

• Mustard is the only major comedy magazine around.

• It focuses on making it’s own cartoons and comedy alongside the comedy industry.

The Name: Potential names

• Absolutely Hilarious: ‘it looks rushed and too basic’

• Laugh A Lot: ‘it’s too small and too packed with colours’

• Comedy Club ‘posh’: It doesn’t look appropriate for a light-hearted magazine.

The Name:Chosen

• Comedy Club:• ‘It makes sense and is appropriate for your genre’

• ‘it is easier to understand what the magazine is about and looks professional’

This will be the cover once it’s finished
