Evaluation question 2: How does your media product represent particular social groups?

Posture/gesture: Both women are facing the side and looking over their left shoulder. Although the model from my magazine is not making eye contact and the other is they are both using a similar facial expression which is quite vacant and relaxed.
Angle: Both models are facing the side and looking over their left shoulder, the camera is taking the photo from the front.
Shot type: Both shots are a medium close up which allows the audience to see the top half of the both in detail. The audience can see the models hair and make up and gives them an idea of the genre of the artist.
Lighting: Both of the photos have good lighting however the lighting on the model on the right is more high key and therefore makes her skin look more flawless and makes the colours look brighter.
Costume: Although my model is wearing a long sleeve shirt and the other model is wearing a short sleeve dress they are both bright colours which really stand out, this represents the younger audience that my magazine is aimed at as they are most likely to wear bright clothes like these.
Expression: Both models have a similar facial expression which is quite relaxed and vacant, both models have their lips parted which is again quite relaxed. However my model is looking away from the camera which makes her look a bit disconected.
Hair: Both models have the same style of hair however my model has hers over her right shoulder whereas the other model has her hair over both shoulders and her fringe on the opposite side. They both have different colour hair. Their hair style represents the younger audience that I am aiming for as they are more likely to have long wavy hair like this.
Make up: Both models have quite similar make up and they are both wearing quite neutral tones. My model has heavier eyeliner and darker lips than the other model. They both have a similar pale skin tone.
The majority of the pictures in my magazine are of young stylish women which gives the magazine the look that it is for women, the fashion pages also reflect this. Overall, my magazine represents young people in an independent, carefree and cheeky way.
