1. HOW DOES YOUR MEDIA PRODUCT
REPRESENT PARTICULAR SOCIAL
GROUPS?
My media product represents the following
groups, Age and Gender.
Harry-Stephen Weedall
2. AGE
My target age group for the product is 16-28.
The main feature of my magazine, (Jake Banks) is 17, which is
a similar age and within the target market. This is to present
the age target, and encourage people of a similar
age to buy it, when they see the front
cover.
I chose this age group, because many
people of this age usually go to
festivals and listen to this type of
music, therefore would be likely to
enjoy reading about it.
3. GENDER
In my production I said that my product was mainly aimed at males. This was because many
if not all, Indie Rock bands and artists are males, some are girls but the majority are males.
Therefore it seems only right that my target market of social group is male.
Many of the images in the magazine are male to present who I am targeting.
However girls may enjoy reading it too, but it is just expected that males are more likely to
buy it.
4. Conclusion
Overall it is very important that I take these social
groups into consideration as it shows what my product
is presenting and who it is aimed at. Therefore by
identifying these different groups means it will make it
easier to target my product audience and make it easy
for my audience to know that it is aimed at them.
