Representation refers to the idea that everything we see/hear in the media has been constructed. This can be seen in magazines, newspapers, radios, and other forms. For example, when talking about a politician, the idea of them is being constructed, not the actual person. "Codes" also play a big role in media representation,. they can range from language, color, clothing, and specific signs. This relates to my magazines because using a certain code to influence readers.
In my magazine, there is supposed to be both a male and a female on the cover. The reason for this is to not section down only one gender and be biased, after all it is a fashion magazine. There will be a handful of candidates chosen from my high school. There will no restrictions on their age, weight , ethnicity, and obviously their age. I will choose the best candidates to represent my magazine.
