social group research (cover)

how does your media product represent a particular social group?

 when creating my magazine i focused on many different things in order to attract and appeal to my target audience.

for my front cover i decided to have a female model (Sophie webster) as to appeal to only to males but females too as males could find her attractive and females could admire her as a strong female with a good sense of style that they could relate too. this will appeal to my target audience as they are teens any young adult possible still finding out about what type of person they are or want to be through music and style influences which are portrayed in magazines.

social group research (contents page)

in my contents page i have used both female and male both in the same age range and in different types of styles male model in a james dean bay boy style of clothing , whereas female model is in a black dress which shows more of a darker clothing style in a appealing way. both models are standing in a pose with attitude, which reflects what type of audience i am trying to appeal to with the rock chick bad boy style which will appeal to both genders.
