2. In order to represent a particular social group I created a questionnaire which
showed that people aged between 16-25yrs old were interested in my
magazine.
I have represented teen-young adults for my magazine through my front cover
image, it is very appealing because the image is making direct contact through
his eyes. The model is giving a very natural pose and smiling which is very normal.

3. To create this magazine I have used a range of technologies like the computer
and camera. I also used range of hardware and software like InDesign,
Photoshop, Google, Word Press, Phones, social networks and many more.
The software InDesign and Photoshop were accessible only at college and
unfortunately I didn’t have it on my private laptop, so in order to use these
software I visited my college library and made use of it in my media lessons.
The use of camera was only accessible through booking the camera which I did.
It was very easy to borrow the camera.
However, It was very challenging in the beginning to make use of InDesign,
Photoshop and the Still Camera because I have never made use of this hardware
or software. Fortunately I developed my skills through my Preliminary tasks which
helped me for my music magazine.

4.  The institution that might distribute my media product is Bauer.
 Bauer is a multinational media company which operates in
countries worldwide, this will help my music magazine to be
published in different countries and in different languages which
will attract worldwide audience.
 Bauer publishes some of the major music magazines like Q,
MOJO, KERRANG and I think it is important for my music
magazine to be distributed by Bauer who is representing some
of the major brands, this will help my music magazine to attract
big audience due to the Publisher’s reputation and record of
music magazines.
 Q is one of the major magazines published by Bauer and I think
my magazine has similarities with the Q magazine because like
Q, my magazine is targeting an young older audience.
 My magazine is most likely to be sold in a Supermarket, WH
smith and Music shop because of major population visiting the
supermarket atleast once a week gives my magazine a boost
of being sold, moreover major music fans can be visiting a
music shop to look for magazines of their genre, like my
magazine is a R&B genre.

5.  I have learnt various skills like using the InDesign, Photoshop which was really
important for my magazine constructions.
 In the beginning of my project I was finding it very difficult to use software like
InDesign and Photoshop because I have never used them before, however
through my preliminary task I further developed using it for my main
magazine construction.
 Other skills that I have developed is the skills of taking pictures according to
the targeted audience, what I mean by this is that for my music magazine I
attracted my audience through the poses of the central image.
 Moreover I developed the idea of representing the colours, fonts and texts in
my magazine, In order for my magazine to attract the audience I used
bright colours such as yellow, blue, red and more, I made use of TW CEN
MT CONDENSED EXTRA BOLD which will make direct contact with my
through the bold font presented.
 Most importantly I was struggling in the beginning of making use of the Still
Camera however through preliminary tasks I Improved my skills which helped
me through my main project.

6.  As mentioned before, the typical my magazine sound reader is
aged between 16-25yrs old and is passionate about music. The
socio economic group of my audience’s parents is C1/C2 and this is
because most of my reader will be financially dependent on
parents, however some of my reader can be living own their as it
more targets at a middle class audience.
 The typical reader for my magazine Sound is male and female, I
think my magazine attracts both gender because of the images
and textual language represented in my magazine.

7.  In order to attract my audience I represented them on the cover
page through a teen star. Moreover the teen star on the front cover
is making direct contact with the reader through the eyes.
 I also attracted my attracted my audience through different
colours, fonts and font size which will make direct contact with the
reader.
 I also had my model to pose in style that will approach readers
buying my magazine through the model representation.
