2. Front cover- How are the people in your magazine
represented in the magazine?
• I think the people in my magazine are represented as being aggressive
and careless. This is suitable for the target audience which are 11-20
years old and mainly males because that is the stereotype. One way I
have represented this is through the mise-en-scène used in the
images. On my front cover the artist is wearing a leather jacket which
are associated with rock stars and bikers.
• As well as the use of mise-en-scene being used to represent gender
and age I have also used masculine colours which are more appealing
to males and people of that age.
• This page is stereotypical for these social groups because the image
and the mise-en-scene I have used is typical for the age group and
social class I am aiming my magazine at.
3. Contents page- How are the people in your magazine
represented in the magazine?
On my contents page I think I have represented people as being
careless and relaxed because for my main images the artist is just
looking of into the distance without a care in the world. For my other
images the artist/editor both have straight faces or look really
relaxed. I think this represents my social groups quite well because
my audience will probably have the same attitude as the artists.
4. Double page spread-How are the people in your magazine
represented in the magazine?
I have represented my social group in this page by the use
of font, colour, image and language. The font I have used
is bold by still has a destroyed effect to it which is
convectional for rock magazines and it also represents my
target audience because they are stereotyped to be
destructive and rule breakers. The colours I have used are
dark and gloomy and the setting of the image is also quite
sinister and dark which is all stereotypical for my social
groups. The language is also easy to understand for the
age of the readers and it could also be language they use
or can relate to.
