1. Question 2-
How does my media product
represent particular social groups?

2. WHO??-COVER IMAGE
On the cover page I have used Amrit, she is posing as
a Indie music artist, a quirky young girl. I got her to
wear a oversized denim jacket and a interesting pair
of glasses/sunglasses. In the image I have used she
looks like she is in a good social class with goals and
ambitions on trying to become “the next big thing”
she is well dressed she is middle class. Amrit is
modeling as an older teen within the age range 17-19.
She is mixed race Indian. Amrit is a heterosexual
teenage musician.

3. WHO??-CONTENT PAGE
On my content page I have images of Amrit, Hannah and Georgia they are all posing
again as indie artists. They are all middle class older teens between the ages of 17-19.
They are all shown as individual quirky people to fit in the with the genre of the
magazine. They are all heterosexual teenagers, Amrit on the left is half cast Indian,
Hannah in the middle is white British, Georgia on the left is quarter cast.

4. WHO??- ARTICLE
On my article I have Georgia posing
as an indie music artist just like she
was on the previous content page.
The article is about her and her life,
the image takes up 3 quarters of
the page to show it is important
and the main focus. Georgia is a
middle class teenage girl she is
quarter cast and a heterosexual.
She Is shown as a happy young girl
smiling and wearing her own
clothing which makes her come
across a bit hippy with the flowery
shirt, this then fits in with the indie
genre.

5. HOW???CLOTHES-
picture 1 and 4- Georgia is wearing a floral shirt
which is a bit hippy, and a leather jacket making her
a little bit more modern. She is wearing the floral
shirt which I think fits more with the genre of the
magazine.
Picture 2 and 5- Amrit is wearing a over sized denim
jacket which is vintage and also wearing quirky
individual sun glasses/glasses. They make her look
quirky.
Picture 3- Hannah is wearing a festive colorful head
band and a dark top. She is looking very individual
and colorful.

Picture 1 and 4- both shots are mid shots with
the focus her face and hair, on the content
page picture 4 is used, the picture is around
the same size and she is used to draw readers
in to read the article about her. Picture 4 is
used on the article it is much more large, it
takes up ¾ of the page as the image is the
main focus, it is also a mid shot used form the
same photo shoot . She takes up a majoirty of
the article and the wrest is text .
Picture 2 and 5- picture 2 is a mid shot and is
more focused on the outfit and expression,
where as picture 5 is a close up and more
focused on the facial expression and eye
contact.
