2. Medium shot- Likely to be used on a double page spread. Taken on the shoot of their ‘I miss You’ video. Props- Roses dying, showing that they are anything but a mainstream act. Eye line top third of the frame, addressing the reader. Has his head down so it shows that he's not exactly keen on the limelight, that he likes to keep himself to himself. The fact that he's only half dressed can show that he's got two personalities, that he keeps himself private and doesn't really let everyone see the real Travis. The half of him that’s wearing the suit can show his seriousness towards his music and his attitude towards the band as being a professional one. Tom's face looks slightly accusatory, maybe questioning the fact that he's having his photo taken, this could suggest that he's not quite up to date on the success the band is flowing at. It could also mean that he’s questioning his role or maybe how the band will progress. The suit shows his professionalism and seriousness the black and red show the passion for his music and the darkness some of his lyrics contain. They're not afraid to be themselves, their image is mainly black and very gothic so their music is likely to be unique and rock. Pose- look of vulnerability gripping the dead bunch of flowers (Mark), hands in his pockets (Tom) and looking down avoiding eye contact (Travis). Centrally framed, showing he is the lead singer, although (Tom) shares vocals.
3. Shows him interacting with the crowd, it connotes his relationship is personal and his music lets him to connect with the people that love it. Likely to be taken from a double page spread ----- more than likely a live review. The fact that he's on the right pointing to the left while leaning onto lots of hands can say that he thinks the fans are more important than himself and that they help him make the music he loves. The long shot showing all of his body lets the readers see his fashion sense, because readers of rock magazines ect. are interested in copying similar styles and fashions to their favourite music artists so that gives the opportunity to see what kind of things he wears.
4. Props- sunglasses they're all wearing connotes that whole stereotypical rock star, that they like to keep their personal lives private but their music is very out there. Pyramid shot, probably used on a double page spread. The dark colours they're all wearing contrasts against the really bright background say something about the location being sunny representing their happy, uplift music and personalities Shows she is clearly the front woman, her eye line is in the top third of the screen immediately getting the readers attention. The fact that Casadee is the only girl shows how they're fighting against the whole male filled music scene of rock etc. and branching out for their own
5. Shot at what seems to be a carnival. Medium Shot- with the front man centrally framed, meaning the reader is immediately drawn to him. Props- sunglasses- gives the whole rock star look (cool and mysterious) Placed behind the front man and slightly out of view this connotes that the reader doesn’t really want to see him, and that all they are interested in is the front man, and the front man alone will sell the magazine. Looking away from the camera, this makes him seem cocky and uninterested with what is happening, but it could also be that he goes unnoticed due to everyone liking the front man, so feels he doesn’t need to address the camera because people wouldn’t notice him anyway. Eyes are slightly looking away from the camera, this him a mysterious edge, and could mean that he doesn’t want people to see into his eyes as it will let them in on his darkest little secrets.
