Task 4
1. THEY HAVE PINK AS THE MAIN THEME COLOUR TO ATTRACT THE
FEMALE AUDIENCE. THIS IS CONVENTIONAL FOR A POP MUSIC
MAGAZINE BECAUSE THE TARGET AUDIENCE IS 11-15 YEAR OLD
FEMALES. THEY HAVE PICTURE OF LOTS OF MALE POP ARTISTS TO
HELP ATTRACT THE YOUNG FEMALE AUDIENCE. THEY HAVE USED
WORDS LIKE “THE REAL CHER LLOYD” TO INTRIGUE THE AUDIENCE
AND THINK THAT THEY ARE ABOUT TO FIND OUT SOME NEW
INFORMATION ABOUT HER. AS IF THEY ARE BEING LET IN ON A
SECRET. THEY MAKE THE AUDIENCE THINK THAT THEY CAN BE
BETTER THEN EVERYONE ELSE BY SAYING “OUR EXPERTS TO THE
RESCUE!”. THIS MAKES THE AUDIENCE BELIEVE THAT IF THEY REST
THE MAGAZINE THEN THEY WILL BE ONE STEP AHEAD OF EVERYONE
ELSE. THEY HAVE USED MISE-EN-SCENE TO MAKE HER LOOK
FRIENDLY AND FEMININE BY GIVING HER A VERY NATURAL MAKE UP
LOOK AND SHE IS FACING SIDEWAYS TO THE CAMERA SO THAT YOU
CANT SEE THE SHAVED SIDE OF HER HEAD AS THAT WOULD MAKE
HER LOOK MORE MASCULINE. ALSO SHE IS WEARING BLUE SO THAT
SHE STANDS OUT AND IS THE MAIN FOCUS OF THE MAGAZINE
2. THEY HAVE USED BRIGHT CONTRASTING COLOURS LIKE YELLOW
AND PINK TO ATTRACT ATTENTION. THIS IS VERY
CONVENTIONAL FOR A POP MUSIC MAGAZINE. THE PINK IS
ESPECIALLY CONVENTIONAL BECAUSE IT APPEALS MORE TO THE
TARGET AUDIENCE OF TEENAGE GIRLS. THE SHOW THE CHEST
OF A POPULAR BAND MEMBERS TO ATTRACT MAYBE A LITTLE BIT
OLDER OF THE TARGET AUDIENCE. THEY HAVE GOT THE PAGE
NUMBERS POINTING TO THE PICTURE INSTEAD OF THE WRITING
BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT DRAWS IN THE READERS ATTENTION.
THEY HAVE USED THE ROUTE OF THE EYE BY PUTTING A PICTURE
IN EACH CORNER AND HAVING ONE IN THE TERMINAL AREA.
3. They have used a black back ground to show that she is not a typical girl.
This is also shown because black backgrounds are not conventional for pop
music magazines. They have used pink for the sections because it stands
out and still shows that she has a feminine side. Also they have used the
pink to outline all of the pictures and make them more visible on the black
background. They have shown a moon symbol in the top left to relate her
the twilight films that she has starred in. She is shown to be very
Casual and laid back by the way that her hair is
styled messily and she is stood in a very casual pose
leaning against a wall. They have put white dots
As a border for the page so that they look like
Movie star lights around a mirror showing that
She can also be glamorous.
