Q2. How does your media product represent particular social group?
While doing my audience research and after my teacher showed me drafts of previous music magazines, I started to gain some knowledge of my audience. My audience would be independent females who loved music and who thought that music inspired them in every aspect of their lives. This was the perfect target audience for me because I was able to relate to them. This influenced me to write my audience research and my double spread page.
I had to find storylines for my contents page and my cover line on my front page. I visited websites such as ‘Concreteloop’ to find stories that related to my target audience about women and music.
Another thing that helped me in fulfilling this project is when I had to profile my audience. I had to ask questions to some of my friends on a social network, I chose blackberry messenger. I asked them normal questions to do with music such as what genre of music do you listen to and how are they aware of the music they listen to? This gave me some sort of understanding of how people in my age group group listened to music and how they were influenced by it through the lyrics of the song.
In addition to this I had to observe every aspect of my magazine, this included the pictures that were taken and the outfits. The way in which they posed, this had to represents strength and independence. The simple look was what I was aiming for; I also made the model of the double spread wear wedges which is in trend at the moment. The colour scheme is continuous throughout the magazine.
