Q: How does your media product represent particular social groups?
Here we can see on the left the main image from my front cover (original size) and on the right a picture of Miles Kane, a popular face in the indie rock music scene. As you can see I have made my image quite similar to the one of Miles Kane, this is so that the same target audience will recognize the similarity's and want to buy the magazine.
Some of the similarity's are:
. The eye contact with the camera, both of the models making eye contact with the audience will make the audience want to buy the magazine
. The pose of the model, this shows that they are the main part of the image and the reason why the audience will want to buy the magazine
. Similar scenery, both in a casual living space
. The guitar, showing that it is a music magazine and also that it is for people who like indie rock, by holding a guitar it shows this as you would not see someone from the RnB scene of music holding a guitar
Overall by making my image similar to the one of Miles Kane it will allow the audience to know if they are interested in the magazine or not.
