Question 2:HOW DOES YOUR MEDIA PRODUCT REPRESENT PARTICULAR SOCIAL GROUPS?

The profile and audience I aimed for.

My magazine is multi genre, every month focusing on one genre,or more streamlined to one thing, so you may ask, how can you have an audience, well like a news paper that covers many sections they aim for a class, and a intellect.

My audience are smart lower middle to upper class music lover, they like music, good music, regardless on what genre it is, they appraise the people behind it. But no be more narrow to sum it up in 3 words, “smart, but cool” would be it.

Dress code. And position.I wanted my model to wear glasses, I wanted him to have the smartCalculated look, to link with my target audience.

The blazer presents a smart but professional look(as he is in theMusic business) but it’s causally worn, like a smart, but coolPerson would do. Again trying to link with the audience.

I wanted the hands in the pockets, to show that its casual, asThe nature of the magazine, and the casual audience it wants,As a more die hard crowd, they would be into a more genreFocused magazine.

This is a dominate interpretation since the target audience I wantedIs a smart but cool person, thus supporting the ideas about myChosen social group and stereotype.

Other images to support me.Although it’s not completely clear I wanted to create contrastBetween the 2 images, in the way they are standing. One facing Towards to camera, but his body is completely away the other One’s body is more tilted towards, but not facing completely. Creating a casual, cool and less uniform feel my target audience Expects from the magazine and the people in it.

As said on the first slide, I wanted a casual but smartLook as reflected on the 3rd slide, I wanted this to beThe dominate interpretation.
