1. How does your media
product represent
particular social
groups?
2. Gender
My media product represents
particular social groups that of
magziees like ‘Vibe’ and ‘RnB’
audiences they attract. The reason for
this is because the genre is both RnB
and HipHop exactly like mine. Though
my magazine has a women as the
main image, it wouldn’t be classed as
a female heavy magazine. My
magazine is a magazine for both men
and women as the content on my front
cover represents.
3. Ages
The clothes my artist is wearing is
very casual and not seductive or
unsuitable for any type of audience.
This appeals to the mass public
though my target audience is just
mainly teenagers. The facial
expression appeals to that of my
target audience.
4. Class
The clothing also relates to class as it
shows that my artist that of a working
class background because of what
she is wering. Because she is dressed
in dark simple casual clothes it lets her
relate to the target audience because
normally 13-19 year old teenagers are
not flashy with their clothes.
5. Ethnicity
Though HipHop and RnB originated
from a black minority of people in
America it has grown to be diverse
and I have tried to represent this by
choosing an Asian artist to help break
the stereotype that RnB and HipHop is
only for a black person to do. As I
have a young target audience it is
crucial to break this stereotype which I
hope my magazine did.
