7. HOW DOES YOUR MEDIA PRODUCT
REPRESENT PARTICULAR SOCIAL
GROUPS?
8. AGE
The casual clothing
choices of the
teenagers represent
them in a stereotypical
manner.
Brightly coloured hair
is associated with
attention which is
also associated with
the actions of
teenagers.
The dialogue in the article also is
stereotypical of teenagers.
9. GENDER
Only two
males are
shown
throughout
my whole
magazine.
Regardless of
gender, they all
wear quite
masculine
clothes.
Jeans, t-shirts,
hoodies ect.
The two girls featured
both have short hair
which is artificially
coloured.

similar to mine.
