Evaluation

My music genre is pop and the target audience ranges from around 10+ as anyone can like pop music really. I chose the music genre 'pop' as I think pop music is a genre of music that appeals to the biggest amount of people so when choosing which genre to do I took that into consideration.

When researching real media products to base my product off I actually ended up doing a different genre of music as to what I researched as I researched pop rock then ended up doing a product with the genre 'pop'. I noticed most pop album covers include the actually artist usually looking at the camera to create direct address and draw more people into buying it. They also normally have bright colours so they aren't dull else it can come across as a different genre of music just based off the colours.

My media product appeals to females more than males, mostly because they band is female so more females will listen to them and as the cover is of females aged 14 it would definitely appeal to that age range. There is no particular sexuality that would be the stereotypical audience for pop music, everyone of all genders, sexuality, religion etc likes pop music. 

During this skills task I have learnt more Photoshop skills and I need to pay more attention to certain things such as the layout of my writing on the front of the album cover. Also think I need to sort it my deadlines a little bit as I did not completely finish the tour poster.
