How does your media product represent particular social groups?

I think my media product represents teenagers and young adults as at this stage in most teenagers’ lives they will be experiencing going out to new places and finding new types of music they enjoy. My magazine shows teenagers enjoying music and being open to new types of fashion, I think my magazine represents teenagers as it shows teenagers enjoying a new type of music and being open to try and listen to new things which are what teenage years help us with. I think the young model on the front of my magazine helps to show the audience who the product is aimed at as the model isn’t an adult or child. I also think the use of bright colours represents teenagers as this draws them into the product and shows the age range. I think the stereotype of teenagers is of them going out to parties, raves, drinking and doing drugs, my magazine interprets this stereotype but in a fun, safer way which doesn’t give teenagers a bad reputation of doing drugs and alcohol but shows teenagers appreciating music and having a good time. My magazine could be for girls or boys, I have used a girl and boy in the magazine making it gender friendly, both models look happy and fun to be around so they would be good role models to teenagers.
