Social Groups

I would hope that my magazine would attract mainly the same audience- ones who enjoy classical music. I wouldn’t want people to buy the magazine if they didn’t like that particular music type. I think i’ve represented my certain social group quite well because it’s obvious at a first glance that this magazine is not pop, rock, alternative or anything loud and aggressive. It’s calm and collected and I think the colour scheme is sophisticated enough to show that it’s classical. I think by using a younger model may also appeal to younger people as well as older people, and I think that widens my audience and opportunity to sell more. From my final magazine, I would expect my aimed audience to buy my magazine as this is the whole point in magazines- to sell it to your target audience.

Gina,
Try to say more about whether the images challenge or conform with stereotypes. Are you trying to challenge our expectations about what a classical musician looks like…are you trying to say something different about women?
