2. How does your media product represent particular social groups?

m I wanted my media product to represents indie/rock fans. This is portrayed through the look of the model. This includes her leather jacket and her shaggy curly brown hair. Also the font style of the Sniper masthead relates to the rock genre because it is edgy and quirky.Youth is also expressed through the bright, modern colour scheme. My main model, Georgia attracts men because she is attractive and has a seductive pose. At the same time women would aspire to her and envy her because of her quirky style and good looks. I noticed that using white people for models was a convention of existing rock magazines which is why I did it aswell. Stereotypically, rock magazines are associated with white people whereas rap and R&B magazines are associated with black people.I decided to use white models for all of my models so this shows that my media product represents white people. My media product represents late teenagers which is portrayed through my young main model used on the front cover who is a similar age to the audience.
