My magazine has challenged most of the

stereotypes about African/Caribbean girls as it

represents them in a positive way through the

body language, facial expressions, props,

colours etc. The social group I have included are

teenagers – which is also the target audience, so

the magazine is relatable. I have included

teenagers within the magazine as the main artist

of the magazine is a teenager. The magazine is

aimed at African/Caribbean teenage females.

The female used in the magazine is smiling and

her body language is relaxed, this challenges the

stereotype that a black girls have negative

attitude. The props used help reinforce this as

she is doing her job and having fun while she is

doing it. The photo taken was a low angle long

shot as you can see the artists whole body.

The clothes that the artist is wearing are

appropriate for the artists age as they aren’t

revealing, however, they go against the

costumes that R&B artists usually wear. I am

challenging the costumes as they are

objective to women. The front photo is of the

young artist kneeling down in front of

speakers holding a microphone. This is a

positive image of the teenager as she is

smiling and this shows that she has a positive

attitude and that she is happy with what she is

doing in her life. The picture behind the text is

a photo of the artist to the left of the speakers

and she is facing the audience again, smiling

to show that she is happy. The fact that she is

facing the audience smiling shows that she

wants to share her happiness with her

audience.

The photo taken is a mid shot of the artist

and she is in front of speakers. Her head is

leaning to the left and she is grinning, this

shows that she is happy and enjoying

herself, this shows that she has a positive

attitude towards her career and she enjoys

what she does. She may be considered a

role model as she conveys a positive attitude

to life, she shows that working hard can

make you achieve highly.
