: Looking back at your preliminary task (College magazine) what have you learnt in terms of progression from that to the full product?

Looking back on my college magazine i have learned alot about how to properly use photoshop. I have also learned how to make my magazine as realistic and close to a real music magazine as possible, i learned how to make my coverlines and taglines look as professional as possible.

How does your media product represent particular social groups?

My media product is probably going to attract young adults and general fans of Hip-Hop, my magazine would be more likely should in specialist music shops therefore attracting a more inner city audience rather than people from the country.
I would be more likely to appeal to young aldults and teenagers as it does include swearing and talks about issue's such as drugs and guns. It would be un suitible for a younger audience because of these things.

What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and Why?

The media instution that might publish my music magazine would probably be a subsidary company of already established Hip-Hop magazines such as XXL or Vibe magazine.

Who would be the audience for your media product?

My target audience are Hip-Hop/Rap fans who like more specialist rap such as "gangsta rap" rather than mainstream rap. I chose to have a more specialist focused target audience because i felt i knew more about "gangsta rap" rather than a more mainstream style of rap.

How did you attract your audience?

I attracted my audience by looking magazines such as Q, Vibe and XXL magazine, these helped me to see what the fans of my music genre like. I then made an audience portfolio using this information, and this helped me pick ideas to attract my target audience of Hip-Hop fans.

: What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

During the construction of my media product i have learnt a great deal about technologies, i have learnt how to succcessfully use Photoshop to edit pictures and design a music magazine. I have also learned how to use Blogger.
