Evaluation Q3
What kind of media might distribute your media
product and why?
IPC is a digital publisher is a consumer magazine publisher
in the United Kingdom, founded in 1958. The company has distributed a range of
magazines including popular magazine such as an NME and Nuts. This might be a
good distributor for my magazine because
it could open my magazine to a wider range of audiences.
My music magazine is a UK magazine which means it will be
sold in the up, so large and popular stores would sell my magazine for example
supermarkets like: ASDA and TESCO
High street music
shops like: HMV and CEX
My magazine might be sold in these stores because they are
popular and well known across the UK.
Evaluation Q2
How does
your media magazine represent particular social groups?
My music magazine represents different social media groups in
the modern day community. The two main social media groups are 16 to 21-year olds
and Males.
My magazine is part of the rap and hip hop genre, the
magazine features rap and hip hop
artists on the cover, rap and hip hop music itself is aimed at teenagers and
young adults ages 16-21. There is also
an artist that is on the front cover
that is a young hip hop artist, with the cover line young talent, this shows
that I have portrayed the artists positively. This may then attract 16 to 21
year olds because they may want how someone close to their age is successful
and talented the way I have portrayed them
In my music magazine, I have featured only male artists. I
have also used a masculine colour scheme for the magazine which is red, black
and white. Moreover I have used masculine words on the cover line like 'BOSS'
also the masthead 'RAW' is masculine and aggressive. I have done this because I
feel like rap and hip hop is mainly aimed for young males.
My magazine features only black male artist on the cover
lines and in the images, I have represented them in a positive way through the
cover lines and images. For example K-herb who is an artist featured on the
cover has the cover line ' young talent' and the image of the young black
artist on the contents page is dressed up and looks cool. I have done this
because yet again I feel rap and hip hop is mostly aimed at young black males
