How does your media

product represent

particular social groups?

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.

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.

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.

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.
