Question 2


Question 2




How does your media product represent particular social groups ?

















Comparison



The posture in both photos are upright showing authority and confidence ,by putting the hand over the eye shows a split personality in the model , this almost represents the content of the article. The hair style are both an indie look representing their music genre. The stances of the photos are different in the sense , my model has a stance which is straight at the consumer , showing attention is on the reader ,unlike Brandon Flowers stance which is at an angle showing




The direct gaze of the model will appeal to the audience by drawing them in and catching their attention,i based my front covers model pose from the photo of Hayley Williams below, i like this image because it is dramatic showing personality.











The contents page of my magazine assumes the audience is interested in all the aspects of the music industry. This is shown by the band index ( the white column) and also by the close up of a lead singer of a band, showing they want to know what the singers up to.





The what's inside column shows the consumer what bands they can follow in the music industry. This would appeal to the younger consumers of my target audience because they are more likely to have time to follow their favorite bands or artists.


My Article is about how my Artist (Jason White) has been in the industry for a while,the story talks about his new albulm and how he and his band dont like the paparazzi .This article would allow any fans of this artist to follow him, this allows them to know any major things happening in the artists life, the will make the bond between the reader and the artist stronger and more personal.
