My magazine i aimed at teenagers from 15 to young adults up to 25 years, eventhough the music in my magazine could interest older audiences. I was also aiming the magazine at both males and females who like alternative rock and post grunge music. So i would add advertisements and products on sale to accomodate both gender interests.
I chose to represent this audience positively,hopefully this has come across to the audience and the targeted group so is not offended as i used quite dark colours which could be argued as stereotyping in a rock magazine. The language is friendly and informative of the latest news. The model i used on the front listens to rock and fitted in with my target audience and she also fits into the age catagory. In my magazine she is a rising rock star so i think showing a female on the front of the magazine doesn't give the feeling of elimination of females as usually it is assumed rock magazines are for males because it is more masculine music.
It would represent groups like this:
Not social groups such as this:
