TASK 4

3. 1 Vanity Fair annotation
Daniel Craig (James bond) is
made to stand out by being in
middle of the cover to get
viewers attention.
Vanity Fair is know for
exploiting the female
body, so they could of
tried to keep this trend
going by putting a naked
female body in the
background . But bond is
also very well know for
his sexual conquests, so
this could be hear to
keep the associations
going. So it is left to
reader to decide

‘Bond’ is in big red bold
fount to grab the

5. 2 Empire Magazine annotation
TASK 4
‘Explosive action issue!’ is written in a
black army font. I think to show that
this magazine is serious and full of
action explosion. Black also
symbolises death which is very much
apart of a action and explosions in
films.
It says there are 3 action movies inside
and it use the main character of each
movie which are very well know (from
left to right) Bruce Willis, Matt Demined
and Simon Pegg. This stands out to the
reader so the reader knows that the
magazine is going to have article that
they are going to want to see.
The mast head is red to show danger
and excitement that is within the
magazine and to catch the readers eye
from on the shelf so they buy it.
‘Bourne Ultimatum’ is written in
bold red fount with a gold out line.
To show the importance of his
name and the new film.as gold is
seen as a colour which only
important people use
