Question 2: How does your media product represent social groups?

Age My media product is associated with people, often girls, of

around 10-12 years old, often known as Pre-Teens or Tweens.

This particular age are interested at this stage in the latest fashion, boy bands and makeup.

This age group are more likely to purchase my music magazine, because it includes interests of that particular age group

Age This particular age group is represented in my music

magazine through the particular language choices used on my front cover, contents page and double page spread

In the contents page, I use language such as, “Latest Goss”

In my Double Page Spread, I have used language such as,

Gender The gender that is put across in my music magazine is girls

My magazine represents the girl gender, through the colour scheme that I have used in my magazine, the clothes the artist is wearing and the text used in my double page spread

The colour scheme is primarily bright colours that appeal to girls, including bright pinks, yellows and sky blues.

Also, the text used in my front cover and contents page also fit in with the gender, because they also use bright colours and are easy to read for the gender

Also, the topics that are mentioned in my music magazine fit into this gender, as it includes makeup, boys and TV.
