Ways in which my media product represents a particular social group is through the colour scheme, images and the style and language of writing.
The colour scheme is bright blue, pink/purple, black and white, these colours represent a club atmosphere, so the social group is predominately people who go to clubs, so this is male and females aged 18-25. The use of the colours also represents gender, the blue represents the males and appeals to them, but is also a colour that appeals to females. The pink/purple represents the females, but yet again is a colour that appeals to both male and females. The blacks and whites are suppose to represent the darkness of a club and the white the flashing of the lights, so the people reading my magazine can relate to this.
The images used in my magazine are of both male and females, I decided to use both male and female models as it appeals to both genders and represents the audience of the magazine. The people in the images are between the ages of 16 and 25, which represents the age group. Another thing that represents the age group is the style/language of the writing. I have used words such as ‘raving’ ‘tune’ ‘yeah boii’ and ‘tech’ this represents the age group as these are words 16-25 year olds use, by using them in the magazine the audience know its for them.
The dubstep genre is normally linked to ‘chavs’ and people of the lower class, my magazine challenges this stereotype as it is aimed at ‘normal’ people who are middle class, by using models that are middle class it represents the social group well, also the style of clothing the models are wearing represent the social class.
