4. The whole right sideof the DPS is
covered by a picture of the star of the
magazine. He is wearinga chain and red
jeans to draw attention to him.
Furthermore he is usingdirectaddress
so he addresses the audience. The
camera shot is mid-shotand he is sitting
on a chair leaningback.
This is a quote from the artisthimself.It
has the largestfont on the page which
makes it stand out from the rest of the
magazine. The “GIRLS GIVE ME” is in
red which shows that he is really
popular with the girls and thathe has
met a lot of them. The “A HEADACHE”
shows that they areannoyinghim or
that something happened to him in real
lifethat will interestthe reader.
This is a pictureof the star again
but it’s a lot smaller which shows
that it is less importantthan the
main photo. The photo is of him
and his girlfriend Selena Gomez.
This photo could be directly linked
to the quote from on top of the
photo.
Sub-titles that
explain the story
behind the photo.
Furthermore the
sub-titles show
what is goingon
in the lifeof the
celebrity which
attracts readers
to the magazine.
They are also in

that they aresub-
titles and that’s
where the reader
should start

irrelevantto the rest. Ituses this
DPS to advertiseanother thing
sincethe readers will read this
page to find out more aboutthe
artist.It’s also in a vibrantcolour
to make it stand out from the rest
of the sub-titles.
This partcrosses

DPS to the other.

most DPS.
The chair is
transparent
which makes
the artist
stand out
even more.
