EXTENSIVE GENRE RESEARCH: Representation of my magazine genre


Representation is an important element we saw in media languages and essential aspects of media which is linked to selling the product. The representation of my magazine genre covers a wide range of audiences that I can deliver my product too but particularly the reader either has to be a dog owner or someone who is less informed about the dog industry. This genre is where many people go for suggestions and guides on feeding, general grooming etc

Age 

A dog magazine would be delivered to a wide age group rather than just one specific one. It counts in middle aged people, youngsters or even teenagers, and aged people too. As long as the reader owns an animal or specifically a dog, or is keen to know more about it, the magazine perfectly would apply to them regardless there age. 



Gender 

Dog magazines are not specific to a single gender as all is it concerned about  is the fact that the reader should be a dog owner or a person keen in knowing more about dogs, hence the gender really does not matter. It could be a female dog owner or a male dog owner. However statistics do say that its majorly the men who own dogs more than women, although this has been increasing over the past as more women start buying puppies as their obsession lies around them.


Social Class

Dog magazines or any kind of animal magazine, represent the upper class or the upper middle class at the most. This is because its the people from these social classes that can afford to keep a pet, afford to pet them through their grooming and feeding etc and adopt them. It is also these people who would be in search of magazines or guides for their animals.

These will be available at big shops and stalls where mostly the upper class, upper middle class, and the middle class people will have their reach.
