  EVALUATION QUESTION 2 HOWDOES YOUR MEDIA PRODUCT REPRESENT PARTICULAR SOCIAL GROUPS?
• 2.
  TARGET AUDIENCE? • Whenchoosing my target audience I wanted to appeal to a large market range but specifically to a group that perhaps are not targeted much by magazine products already. • After conducting a survey on http://louisemedias.blogspot.co.uk/2012/10/sur vey-results.html • This gave me the result of a Rock Genre Magazine.
• 3.
  Gender? • I wasconcerned that picking a gender group would constrict the appeal of the magazine and target it at a group that was largely not represented within the industry – however I decided that focusing on a female based rock magazine would create a unique approach to the growing market. • The colour theme could be seen as more feminine using pale colours • Having a feature on a male group focuses attention on an interesting topic for the females.
• 4.
  Layout? • My layoutwould have to appeal to teenage/young adult females specifically within genre of choice. • The heading/subheading & information on the magazine was visible but not as forefront as the images, interesting text on the articles and Win! Section. • The layout become interesting, unique and current.
• 5.
  Teenagers/Young adults? • Mymagazine would feature the latest chart and popular music and be up to date not just in that industry but with items such as gossip/talk columns. • Including artists in the magazine that are young and a similar age to the audience would help them feel comfortable reading the magazine and keep the features current and up to date.
• 6.
  Overall? • Overall Ibelieve that my magazine actively captures my target audience portraying them within the magazine and representing the genre that was given to me in the survey results. I think that the layout primarily helped in representing the gender and the age group I had chosen.
