Question 2 - How does your media
product represent particular social groups?
I think that my media
product represents a lot of different social because it varies within the
magazine. Although I think that one particular social group stands out over the
rest. A young social group is represented by the use of young models in their
teens and the use of social networking advertisement because most young people
use social networking sites all over the world. The bright colours on the front
cover also represent the younger audience because the younger generations
usually judge things by their appearance before going any further into
something.
My main model particularly resemble the
stereotypical type of person that is the face of RAP and R&B music, those
of the black ethnicity play a large part in my target in my audience, I also
presented the black ethnicity through the large amount of black artists that
featured in my magazine.
Also the fact that my models
are not dressed up like in some magazines, where they attempt to look their
best, in my magazine they are casually dressed how they usually would be. This would
relate to the audience showing them how their artists really are therefore
putting less pressure on the audience to spend their money on trying to look
good and look as nice as their favourite artists.
Those of a middle or working
class are also represented because of the cheap price which was lowered to draw
readers in and make it available to more people at the start because a large
percentage of my audience are unlikely to be working meaning they have less money
to spare.
