How does your media product represent particular social groups?

My magazine represents my particular social group because the group that I chose is young girls between the ages of 15 to 25. This allows me to use very girly colours such as pink and purple. The social group that I want to mainly attract is a very girly kind of girl. The type of girl that would listen to boy bands and girls like Miley Cyrus. They would be young, predominantly white typically in full time education. They don’t have much money to spend spare but they have enough a month to buy my magazine. The girl would typically spend time with her friends and socialize with other music fans.

In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

Ryans Gosling Images

I got this image from google images. The website is www.digitalspy.co.uk. i decided to use a found image because i wanted to have an image of someone who was
extremely good looking  and had a good body. so i thought it would be appropriate to get someone 
famous off of the internet.

Front cover Progresion

The first front cover i came up with didn't feel right so i decided that i should change the background image. so i then found the image on the second front cover and decided that looked a lot more professional. i am yet you add in a poster in the blank space. i am putting together a boy band so pictures will be on soon.

Masthead final design

i decide to put my masthead all together. i tried different ways of trying the crown. i got my peers to asses which ones they like the best. they all opted for the 3rd design for the crown leaning to the side. therefore im going to go with this masthead.

Crown

i traced and scanned the crown onto the computer and then opened it in photoshop. i then used the outline and filled in the middle with black to make a silhouette.

MQ colours

i decided to change the colours of the MQ to test it, i decided to two different colours and over lap them to make something a bit more interesting
