The band, Paramore, are known for their pop/rock music. This can be established with the way the
members are dressed. The girls hair is brightly coloured with random patches of blue, yellow and green at
the top. This could be suggesting pop as the pop genre usually tends to be bright and colourful music. Her
clothing is also quite light as she is wearing a light blue denim jacket and what seems to be a white t-shirt
which could, again, suggest the pop genre. Whereas the girls hair is brightly coloured and she is wearing
light coloured clothes, her fellow band memers are shown to be wearing quite dark clothing whith streaks
of blue and green. These colours may be suggesting the rock genre as rock is usually associated with
people wearing quite dark clothing with not much colour. The facial expressions on all of these people
seem to be quite blank and emotionless which could be suggesting the rock theme. Rock music also tends
to be quite serious and this is what the band would perhaps want to get across to the audience. The
background is completely black. This may be suggesting the seriousness of the band as they may have
chosen to have black as their blackground to show the rock theme.
5 Seconds of Summer are a pop rock/ pop punk band from Australia. The rock genre is suggested as one
of the members has green hair which is an unnatural hair colour. Sometimes in rock bands there are
people with brightly coloured hair which can be seen as wild. The green hair may also suggest the pop as
pop is also seen as bright colours. The rock genre is suggested when two of the band members are
wearing ACDC and Nirvana tops and both of these are rock bands which may suggest their style and type
of music they make. The band members seem to be pulling funny faces which suggests that they are
perhaps as band who are fun but serious at the same time. All of these people seem to be wearing quite
dark coloured clothes such as greys and blacks. These colours are most likely seen on rock bands and
other types of bands like the rock genre.
Ariana Grande is a musician who makes pop music. This is suggested by her big glamourous hair and
perfect makeup which is the look that women in the pop music industry tend to go for. The colour of her
dress is a white colour which may suggest that the pop genre is an innocent genre compared to music
such as rock music where the colour palette is usualy dark like black or grey. Her facial expression is a
smile which suggests she is not serious and she looks kind and friendly whereas people from rock music
usually have no conspicious emotion or an angry looking expression. In this particular image, Ariana
Grande is attending the Teen Choice Awards which is an award even in which many pop artists/actors join
together. This is an event where artists such as Ariana Grande would attend and not peop-le from rock
music.
Bring Me The Horizon are a metalcore band from Sheffield. This is suggested with the use of the abundant
colour black. The colour black is usually associated with this type of genre also, black is a colour which
people take seriously. The man in the front is covered in tattoos and tattoos like these are usually seen
with people in hardcore rock bands such as Bring Me The Horizon. The facial expressions of all of these
people are blank and emotionless. This portrays the feeling of seriousness and it also seems like they want
to be intimidating as the way they are positioned, it looks as if they are surrounding the person looking at
the picture. Also, the setting of this image is in a forest with tall trees that seem to not let much light into
the picture. Usually forests are used in horror films and the band may want to create a sense of
intimidation and fear.
George Ezra is a musician who makes music within the folk genre. The folk genre can be established as he
is holding a guitar which does not look like an electric guitar, but a guiat used for acoustic songs. The way
he is dressed is simple with a orange and navy jumper. This suggests that the folk genre is perhaps simple
which is why George Ezra is wearing a simple jumper as there is no need to wear clothes which make him
stand out. His facial expression does not really suggest anything about the style of music however his face
looks like he is concentrating which is perhaps how he may want his audience to percieve him as. As a
musician who concentrates on his music.
