AS Media Evaluation Question 2

1. Evaluation Question
2
How does your media product represent particular social
groups?

2. I have produced a rock magazine, and I have interviewed people
who are interested in genre to see what they would like and
want me to include inside it. Because of this and the feedback I
have received. I thought about what they had said and wanted
to add things which would apply to them.

3. I matched my artist to a general 'Rock chick' style. I dressed her
all in black, messed up her hair, gave her a gothic style make
over and when taking photos, I placed her in positions which
were generally seen in other magazines. The use of ripped
jeans and the fact she is leaning forward, is inviting the reader
in. I have added some photos of her smiling, to show the
lighter side of her that I wanted to.

5. I purposely used a
female who would fit
the age of my target
market as I thought it
would make them more
interested in the
magazine. I feel like
people younger than
the age of 15 would find
the magazine to be
inappropriate and
possibly to provocative.
