Evaluation Question 2

How does your media product represent particular social groups? "Fire!" magazine represents has a target audience of mostly young adolescent males, so i tried to make it represent them. i have included several images (particularly on the contents page) instead of large chunks of text, as this perhaps will hold my readers attention for longer. I have used mostly young models in my photography, but because i want my audience to be well-rounded musically, have also used some older ones. I have not used basic fonts for my headings and masthead, as i felt a young lower class audience would be attracted by a more ragged style. However, for the main texts and cover lines, i have used a simpler, plainer font, in order for the message to be clear. My target audience of teenagers are often represented negatively, so i wanted a new product to show them in a brighter, more positive light. I feel my product does this by listening to what they wanted (through the survey), and including it in a product.
