Question Two



How does your media product represent particular social groups?




The musicians in my magazine are represented as care free, people who don’t think twice before they talk; like to be controversial and don’t care what people assume/think about them. My artists swear, like to be provocative not forgetting loud. This in matter of fact represents my magazine genre of alternative music. The lyrics written in alternative music is provocative, meaningful and more or less lyrics that have no boundaries. Alternative artists aren’t afraid to write/say what they want; which is what my magazine is illustrating through the main artist the issue is written about. Xandria is a representation of the alternative genre and what the target audience acts like/would like to be like. Xandria represents the social group that doesn’t care what they look like, what they wear or how they are represented. It’s a care free genre that doesn’t like to be conventional, meaning they aren’t the ‘hipster’ generation and like to be individual. 



The types of clothes my main artists is wearing is clothes you would find in urban outfitters. Urban Outfitters is a store my target audience would love to shop; Urban Outfitters offers alternative clothing that you wouldn’t find in stores like new look. The clothes are unique and eccentric...this matches with the genre perfectly. Using props like an acoustic guitar and electric guitar relates to the target audience; the magazine’s target audience is one that is so into their music they are likely to play a musical instrument, write their own songs and even sing them.
