I have chosen to represent the teen pop subculture, Teen pop is a sub-genre of pop music. It is targeted mostly towards preteens and teenagers widespread across various countries. Teen pop copies genre and styles such as pop, dance, R&B, hip Pop, country and rock.
Teen pop music include lyrics focused on teenage issues such as love/relationship, friendship, fitting in and etc. Teen pop also emphasis's on visual appeal meaning photogenic faces, body physiques and attended hair and designer clothes, as you can see in this picture they can all be seen very clearly as all of the young boys are all emphasized on their visual appeal from head to toe. As you can see in the photograph the young boys are wearing bright seasonal coloured clothing this is to attract the young generation, they are a band called One Direction to not make any of the members feel outcasted they are all wearing similar clothing and light makeup hide any imperfections.
In this video you can see Justin Beiber representing my subculture, the song lyrics and clothing signifies that he is a teen pop artist. In the second video you can see One Direction singing and dancing wearing casual but fashionable clothing and the synchronised dance moves are representing my subculture.
In both of these videos we can see similar things such as the the singer on the first video and the singers on the second video being young and attractive, they are all wearing clothing that is in fashion or was in fashion, the background dancers or actors are also young just like them and the dance moves are synchronised, the lyrics are about teen issues meaning teen pop culture.
In my magazine I have tried to place all of the things above for example the model for my magazine is a young attractive looking teen, she is wearing something that has a good contract to her skin tone and as well as in fashion and last but not least the taglines and stories are what interests the young audience and what they can relate to.
Basing around that idea I have used light makeup on my model to show that she is not all fake and shown her natural beauty. The coverlines of my magazine are all related to young attractive males and females. I have created a magazine which would be appealing to the my audience considering their age.
