How does your media product represent particular social groups?

My magazine is representing cultural interests in young people who are interested in the music industry. Where some genres of music for example rap are often represented as gangsters and troublemakers. But the artist I came up with for my magazine is represented as an average person who could be seen as a role model as she says she loves to inspire, but also she has a gossipy side, shown by her later comments from the interview.

Having a gossipy side is important for music artists sometimes because drama brings publicity, and with a young audience I felt that publicity and drama would be interesting for them to read about.

   represented in casual and every day clothes makes her a relatable person. Shown as a musician as she has a guitar so is quickly recognizable.
A woman, young, smiley, wearing make up- these are all conventions of what we think of when we think young woman (it fits conventions) Although she is well covered up when some artists may not always be, this automatically makes her more suitable for a younger audience and she can be seen as more respectable and serious.
