The document discusses the design and content choices for a magazine about the genre of dubstep music. It addresses how conventions from researched magazines were followed or challenged for the front cover, contents page, and double page spread. Target audiences are younger males and females interested in dubstep music, gigs, and album releases. Distribution by Bauer is proposed since they distribute similar music magazines. Skills using Photoshop and InDesign for magazine layout have improved from the preliminary task.

5. 2. How does your media product represent particular social groups? What different areas of society are represented in your magazine? Do you represent a cub-culture e.g. ‘emos’, ‘goths’, ‘hoodies’. Do you deal with issues of race, ethnicity, gender, age, social class, disability?

8. 3. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why? Which companies might distribute your magazine e.g. IPC, Emap, Bauer? Do they already distribute magazines from a similar genre?
