Evaluation Question 2: How does your product show representation of particular social groups?

With my magazine being targeted towards young teenagers my use of colours and language show representations of this social group. The price of the magazine is relatively low for a monthly magazine; this is due to the target audience of teenagers. They would normally have no income other than pocket money or maybe helping parents or friends on weekends, meaning that they would not be able to always afford the magazine if it had a high price. With £3.49 it is very good with usual pocket money being around £10 a month now. The language I use in my magazine is kept simple and short, making it easy and quick to read, which means that teenagers could read it between doing other things, and would easily understand what is being said. The colour and very bright and attractive making the magazine looks interesting and eye catching, the connotations of the colours of yellow and pinks are quite childish and very feminine which would appeal to girl aged between 10-13 who would be listening to this kind of pop music.

        With the costumes the models are wearing there is nothing outrageous or unseen before. This is common amount the pop genre and idolises the artists and my audience of the magazine would see this and want to look like that as well. My main artist’s hair has been made to appear to have yellow tips to a dark blonde hair. This dyed hair is becoming more common among pop artists like Kate Perry and Miley Cyrus.
