Prop Reason why/Inspiration
The electric guitar is very
conventional to rock magazines, as it
is an important element of rock
music. My inspiration came from
‘Kerrang!’ magazine, where front
covers with Green day for example,
had a man playing the guitar.
This sort of outfit is conventional for
a rock musician. For example,
Metallica and Guns n roses. The
representation it holds are those of:
rebelliousness which may be
negative, but also confidence and
self-motivation, and perhaps talent,
which is also a good aspect.
The hairstyle should be somewhat
long, as it represents being wild and
active, and is very stereotypical to
rock n roll genre, so it can attract
audience’s attention. Singers such as
David Bowie and guitarists such as
Angus Young have inspired me.

2. The Leather boots represent the
model’s wild and bright personality,
stereotypical of rock n roll genre- but
also it would suit with the Leather
Jacket that I mentioned before, but I
also noticed that lots of bands
mentioned in Kerrang! Wear casual
shoes also.. My inspiration was the
band led Zeppelin and Avenged
Sevenfold.
This prop would help to represent the
rebellious, wild/fast beat music because
this is the sort of music that associates
with skulls. It may also be something of
an upside down cross, which represents
satanic religion that people could
perhaps relate to- but skulls are better
in terms of representation, in my
opinion.
