Vibrant zebra print and pink colors showcase pop artist Nicki Minaj
1. The clothing used is zebra print, which is unique and usually wore on
somebody with a distinctive and a original style. The clothing makes
the model stand out more against the simple and plain background.
This has been used to suggest that this magazine is exclusive, one of
kind and different from all the rest out there. Also it implies that you
never know what to expect next as it is so out of the ordinary.
There’s a lot of vibrant and loud colours used in this double page spread,
which perfectly reflect back to the music genre of magazine that is pop. In
addition to this the main colour used in this spread is pink which suggests
that this magazine is mainly aimed at young teenaged females. Also the
colour pink implies sweetness, innocence, fun, love and care which are all
characteristics that teenage females are typically associated with having.
The shot in the
double page spread
is a medium-long
shot, so that the
artists facial
expression, stance,
outfit and jewellery
can be seen to
interest the target
audience. The
camera angle is
direct implying that
the artist has
nothing to hind,
that she is honest
and confident.
Also suggesting we
might find out
more to why is she
is feeling this way
within her
interview.
The
text/informatio
n from the
interview is
curved around
the dominant
image ,
implying that
the model is
the most
important
feature on this
spread with
power and
confidence.
Also suggesting
that nothing
can get in her
way, implying
strength.
The dominant image is positioned over both pages whilst
overlapping the mast head, which reads “Nicki Minaj” the name
of the artist who is the feature of the dominant image. This
suggests the person herself is much more significant, powerful
and stronger than her brand and who she is known by and what
she is known for.
Her hand is positioned beside her hand however not in front
of her face. This suggests she is confident within herself,
doesn't feel vulnerable or insecure. In addition to this she
wears a statement ring on her hand beside her head, the
ring says “icon”. This suggests she is confident and believes
in herself that she will be successful.
