3. In my media product both males and females have been
represented in the use of colours I have chosen, as well as this some
of the colours have been chosen to fit in with the types of people
that read Indie music magazines:
The purple I have chosen, although
slightly more female oriented, is a shade
that would appeal to both genders. I chose to use black as one of
the main colours in my colour

4. Class and Ethnicity
By using the rough edges on the boxes it appeals to

white people, the area I live in (York), has very few
ethnic minorities, making it harder for me to include
photographs of Indie teenagers of all ethnic
backgrounds.
