1. The girl in the main image has thick
makeup on. (liquid eyeliner) which
could interpret that she cared about
her physical appearance. The physical
appearance creates opinions and
impressions on what the readers
might think about the artist.
The artist is purposely posing in a way
which makes her look uncomfortable.
This could just be to reveal her genre
of music as it might be “emo” or “soul”
music which is a very emotional style
of music. On the other hand it could be
done to make her give an “innocent”
look to the artist.
The artist in the key image is
wearing a leather jacket
which is a common symbol
for the “rock” genre.
“I’m not one for advice, I’m one for
mistakes.” This quote is written in bold
capitols which suggests that it is
serious,
The text “child” is written in
bold, block, large white writing to
make it stand out. However, the
text “child” is written in pink
crayon-like writing which links to
the meaning of the term “wild”.
The pink colour scheme throughout
the whole layout is used to convey a
“girly” feel to the magazine cover. It
also portrays the childish behaviour
that the artist might have.
The background colour is black
which could portray the “dark” and
“rock” related theme of the artist. It
may have also been utilised to make
the key image stand out.
The artist in the key image has a dog
collar around her neck. This object
suggests that she is a beast that
must be tamed. It links to the
phrases used in the Subheading;
“outrageous”, “crazy”, “reckless”.

2. The colours in the double page
spread sheet stay the same in a
black and white scheme. This is
done to give it a “classic” feel.
Alternatively, the suit could
signify that the artist is a classic
“gangster” type person or it
could symbolise the wealthy and
smart side of him.
The artist has a bottle of
champagne and a champagne
glass in his hand. This could
represent the wealthy side to
him. It could also signify that he
has finally succeeded and
reached a successful milestone in
his life.
Additionally, the balloons in the
background interpret a party
scene. This party must be the
same celebration of becoming a
“made man”.
The font used for the title is a
large, bold, block text which
creates a ‘masculine’ sense to the
page. It makes it stand out even
though it is not coloured. There is
also an effect used in which the
text is flipped upside down which
could signify the face that the
artist started from nothing and is
now successful and “on top”.
In relation to the title “MAN
MADE”, The champagne bottle
suggests that he is celebrating his
success of becoming a Made
Man.

3. Pink colour scheme is used
throughout the double page
magazine spread which
symbolises the fact that the
artist is very “girly” and
childlike.
The artist’s name on the top
right of the main image has a
symbol of the “blackberry
messenger” icon. This is done
to show that she is
modern, social and knows
about the latest “trends”.
The main title is a quote which
is written in capitol letters. It is
a quote from the artist herself
which exposes her personal
history. The title suggests that
the artist was a “naughty”
person as she influenced
younger people in a negative
way.
The key image of the artist is
expanded to fit the whole
cover of the page. There is
nothing else apart from the
image and a small title with
her name “Cher Lloyd”. This
effect illustrates that she is a
well known artist as there is no
description needed.
The subheading is hooking
the readers to reading on
further into the text. The use
of the exclamation mark and
the word “now” creates
tension when reading and
makes the readers feel as
they should read on to reveal
more.
The artist’s “pose” in the key
image is irregular and makes
her stand out. She has a classic
camera in one hand and the
other hand covering her
mouth. She is not standing in a
way that a normal person
would stand when taking a
photo. This makes her seem
“crazy” or “over-excited.”

4. The key image is a very large
image of the artist with a
medium close up camera shot
which is purposely used to
reveal his
arms, watch, chain, and vest.
The watch worn by the rapper
carries connotes wealth.
The diamond ring deliberately
displayed by the rapper on his
small “pinkie” finger suggests
high status as it is an item that
is often associated with
loyalty, therefore portraying the
artist as possible loyalty within
the rap culture.
The chain around the rapper’s
neck relates to wealth and
riches. It is also a sign of being
from the “ghetto” and being a
“street gangster”.
In addition, the artist is shown
with tattoos on his arms, which
is a common theme amongst
musicians amongst urban street
culture. This interprets that he
is a rapper who takes pride in
himself.
In the background there is
clear block lettering which
states “NYC” and behind that
there is a less clear visible
landscape. This has been done
purposely to expose his
location which he is proud of.
Behind him are various gym
equipment for exercising. The
most obvious to the eye is the
punch bag behind his
shoulder. This signifies that he
has been through a struggle
and has had to ‘fight’ in his
life.
Furthermore, he is wearing a
vest which could signify that
he is active and exercising. The
positioning of his hands make
his seem like a fighter, or as If
he had just hit the punch bag.
On his visible arm, there is a
tattoo of a large cross. This
could connote the faith belief
has in God and his religion, he
is an artist that is strongly
faithful and looks up to his
Lord for help.
