The document discusses how the media product represents particular social groups. It summarizes that:
1) The front cover features a late teenage female model to represent the target audience. This portrays the social group in a somewhat stereotypical way.
2) Most of the interior images are of females to relate to the target audience, but it also includes a male artist to appeal to female readers and create variety. This counters stereotypes of magazines focusing only on female artists.
3) Some images portray teenage girls in a less stereotypical, more mature way through their clothing choices of jeans and jumpers rather than bright dresses. This challenges stereotypes of always representing teenage girls in a very girly way obsessed

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
1. Question 2-
How does your
media product
represent
particular social
groups?
Katie Thomas
2. Front Cover
My model for the front cover was chosen
because she is an accurate representation of
my target audience. This is because she is a late
teenage female who enjoys pop music.
Therefore I think my audience would be able to
relate to her, as they are a similar age.
The differences between the two images is that
my image has the model not looking directly at
the camera, I did this to make my magazine
look different to regular pop magazines.
Also the model in “Top of The Pops” appears
more glamorous because of her makeup and
hair.
The clothes of the two models are fairly similar
although perhaps my model’s clothes look
slightly more casual in that she is wearing a t-
shirt and jacket.
Therefore I have partially portrayed this social
group in a stereotypical way.
The facial expressions of the two models are
quite different because the “Top of the Pops”
model isn’t smiling whereas my model is. I have
decided to do this because it makes my
magazine look more friendly and appealing to
readers as she looks happy and smiley.
Both images also have a plain white
background. This shows I have kept with some
stereotypes of pop magazines. I did this
because I think it makes the images look more
professional and clean cut.
3. Other images
My images are mainly of females
because this is my target audience
and so I feel they would be able to
relate to them more.
However, I have also used an image
of a male showing my magazine
doesn’t just focus on female artists
and creating variety in the images. I
have also done this because I think
featuring male artists will also appeal
to females, because stereotypically
teenage girls like young male singers.
This goes against the stereotype
because I have noticed many
teenage magazines contain lots of
photos of teenage/early twenties
males because the stereotype is they
can become obsessive towards them.
However, my magazine is more to do
with the music rather than the
“celebrities” hence I am subverting
the dominant stereotype by having
fewer images of males and not
commenting on them being “fit” or
“attractive”.
4. Other images
However, in some of my other
photos I have portrayed teenagers
in a less stereotypical way. This is
because I have images of female
teenagers (who are my target
audience) but represented them
in a more mature way.
This is very contrasting to the pop
genre stereotype because
generally teenage girls are
represented in a very girly way.
This is shown through the clothing
many of the models wear which
tend to be bright dresses and skirts
whereas my models are just
wearing jeans and jumper/t-shirt.
This make them appear less girly
and obsessed with looks which is
the conventional stereotype.
5. House style
Through the layout, fonts and colours I have also
represented my target audience, because it is aimed
specifically at them.
The colours I have used are red and teal which contrasts to
the stereotypical pop magazines which tend to use pink
and purple. These colours I feel connote youth and being
really girly.
I have also used a less informal mode of address than the
stereotypical pop magazines which use slang and
abbreviations, like “omg”. This makes the target audience
seem very immature.
I think the combinations of my colour scheme and mode of
address challenges the stereotype, by showing teenage
girls can be more mature and not as girls as generally
represented.
