Analysing Michael Jackson

1) This image has been cropped to show just his face to represent the change he has gone through in his life, and to emphasize his struggle as you can see how all the stress has affected him physically from looking at his face,
2) Michael Jackson is wearing black clothes and his hair is messed up, this suggest that he is no longer the iconic music figure the world knows but a broken man.
3) No props have been used on this image
4) You cant really see the setting but it is a natural setting maybe used to represent how Michael Jackson looks naturally.
5) No intertextual references
6) The colour black features a lot and it mainly represents death and maybe the death of his career.

!) This image has been cropped to just a mid shot to show Michael Jackson's body and to put him out there as this fresh musical talent
2) Michael is just wearing a vest and this is used maybe to reveal his physicality and make him appeal more to the target audience.
3) No props have been used.
4) The setting used is like maybe a wall from a normal neighborhood to represent him as a normal person and just like any other person in America.
5) There are no intertextual references.
6) The white vest can represent new life as he is new in the music businessn  and can grow and achieve great things.

Contents page sketch


My Student Magazine poster


Angels magazine cover and contents page


This is a student magazine for a girl's school so it would make sense if the layout and fonts are made to fit their audience. It features a st Angelas girl in a DT workshop as the theme was working hard and success in D and T in GCSEs. The masthead is appeal as it applies to the girls "Angels". The main slogan is to portray the main message of the magazine is to provide tips for GCSE technology students.





The contents page is very important as it provides important information to the reader. The use of flowers as  background is important as it is generally stereo-typically associated with girls so it is appealing to the reader in some ways. Not a  lot of pictures used instead of words. The different sections are all separated to keep the different types of info away from each other and easier for the reader to find their information.

Magazine Analysis

Chelsea FC

The masthead "chelsea" features the club's name as it its a club magazine and for private circulation. Its in simple font and bold so that it is easier for fans of all ages to read.
This magazine features some of the conventions of  magazines as the model is facing the reader (direct mode of address) and one of the sell lines is "Hazard's Warning" because the model's name is Eden Hazard and the article features an article about what he aims to do as he is a new player to the team at the time. The banner at the bottom is also a convention, it feature the club's main sponsors and any extra things that might be in the magazine. This cover lacks enough information as there is no indication of the price of the magazine and enough sell lines.
