Language - Very large, mid-shot picture of Lily Allen takes up a lot of space on the spread. This contrasts with the headline : "I'm not an attention seeker", implied to be a quote from Lily Allen, with the image taking up a large amount of space, even part of the other page, with the image placed to give the image that she is elbowing the headline out of the way to gety attention. Also, the only bright colour used is red, a bright, attention-grabbing colour. It is only used in the image of Lily Allen, and to highlight her name in the text.This creates a kind of joke using the image and headline. The image also takes up more space than the text, adding to this, as well as the fact that her name is in red in the sub-headline. A large picture of Lily Allen may also have been used so that anyone looking through the magazine would recognise her and read the article.
Institution - The magazine is produced by IPC Media, as detailed earlier.
Ideology - The ideology of this spread is that Lily Allen is well-known, and an attention seeker, as shown by the image taking up most of the space.
Audience - The audience for these pages of the magazine are people who are fans of Lily Allen, and will noptice the large, attention-grabbing image of her, plus the quote by her, and be interested in reading the article.
Joe,
ReplyDeleteYou've made some good progress so far, but your work seems to be a little patchy.
You need to complete your analyses (step 4) as a matter of urgency, and should really be aiming to be working at around steps 6 /7 by the end of this week - in order to meet the Christmas deadline.
Make better use of your time during lesson and aim to come and work in the edit suite during your free time in order to catch up.
Good luck with the rest of the coursework,
Emma.
