The document provides an analysis of the advertisement for Ed Sheeran's 2011 album "+". It discusses several aspects of the advertisement including the character representation, narrative events, iconography, setting, and technical codes. Specifically, it notes that the character portrayal shows both conformity and breaking of stereotypes. It suggests the narrative implies a love storyline through flirtation. Iconography uses include Sheeran's surfer-like appearance and lack of other symbols. Low lighting makes the setting difficult to identify but hints at themes in Sheeran's songs. Technical aspects involve close-ups and placement of information.

there isuse of indirectmode of addresswiththe artist
lookingtowardsthe ground. Thiscouldbe implyingflirtation
whichissynonymouswiththe ‘lad’/barculture,therefore
followingthe stereotype of early20smen‘pickingup’women
at a bar.However,because he islookingatthe groundhe
couldbe seenas submissive.Thisthenbreaks the stereotype
of malesbeingdominantandfemalesbeingsubmissivewith
a role reversal.Thoughthe artisthimself seemstobe ashy
personinreal life whotendstomake little ornoappearances

Narrative events:Asstatedinthe charactersectionabove the

couldbe implyingalove/romance narrative.We donotsee
the personparticipatinginthe flirtingwhichcouldhave been
done fortwo reasons:One wouldbe tomake the audience
feel like itisthemparticipatingashe has a large prominently
female fanbase;the otherreasonwouldbe thatit wasdone
to create narrative enigmawhere fanscouldpossiblyfigure
out whothe otherpersonisif theybuy the album.
Iconography:there islittle use of iconographyonthisadvert

because of the positioningof the lightwe couldassume
that he is stoodundera streetlightoran outdoorlamp.
Thiscouldtie in withthe flirtingstoryline.Peoplego
