How does your media product represent particular social groups?
When I was told about the task I had to complete, I immediatly knew what genre of music I would base my magazine on and the type of people it would attract and appeal towards. I believe that my media product would appeal to RnB teenage fans just like the real media product 'Blender' does (shown above). When I asked my girl friends which magazine they would choose out of Blender or NME, they all were attracted to the one with the solo artist Taylor Swift posing with her hair and make-up all done nicely. This was the response I wanted as it led me to want to carry out the mental image I had of my magazine to look like. My magazine shows similarities from the published one. I have developed some of the conventions from this so that they would both represent the same social groups. The posture of the model is positioned in a way to attract the younger generation as it is quite flirtatious and would appeal to teenagers. The clothing of my model is simple but elegant and on trend. Her clothing highlights the genre of music as it is not something you would see on the front of magazines like Kerrang and NME.
