HOW DOES YOUR MAGAZINE REPRESENT A PARTICULAR

SOCIAL GROUP?Evaluation of Preliminary Task

FRONT COVER

On the front cover of my magazine I have pictured a 17 year old boy in casual clothes. This represents the typical age group of someone that may attend college. At college there is no uniform to wear so by having Will in his normal day to day clothes this appeals to the target audience because it’s what they may usually wear. When taking the photograph of Will, I ensured that he was shown to be happy and smiling which represents what a typical student is supposed to be like. The magazine isn’t supposed to appeal to particular groups but all students in general so by choosing casual clothes this can appeal to everyone.

My contents page shows pictures of both the Advice Shop and the Café. The students pictured in the shots are wearing a range of different clothes. This represents how all students are different and the diversity of the type of people there may be. All of the people in the photos are carrying bags which represents a typical student because the stereotype of students is to be carrying a bag full of school work. By having a photo of lots of different students, it shows the range of different social groups that a college includes.
