Draft Evaluation 2

How does your media product represent particular social groups? As the main focus of my music magazine is the main character J-max who is a Rock musician who is about to go on tour. So this makes him the logical choice to represent a social group. In this case I tried to focus on the target audience as relating the main character to the audience that listen and read about rock music would result in more sale of my magazine. I decided that the best way to do this was to focus on the mise en scene in regards to the main character. So I selected some cloths that he and I both agreed meet some of the rock music conventions and began to shoot some pictures. Although I did have some reservations abou the choice of clothing it was however the only arrangment of cloths that we could both agree on. But the combination of the shirt and jeans does work well to match the genre of a rock star at home as you don't wear your stage cloths at home do you. I might have changed the tyle of clothing a little as I feel that rock musicians would probably wear something a little darker when in a interview, but as this was set at his famly home it makes sense that he would be wearing more casual rather then practical clothing. This represents a social group as The next area I addressed was the the selection of an Instrument as alot of the rock music magazines have instruments in the pictures with the musician to give the feel of action and movement.
