Compare One of the front covers to a magazine of your own choice. (500 WORDS)
Mojo Magazines front cover on the sex pistols can compare to the top of the pops front cover on Rita Ora due to reasons as follows.
Within Mojo Magazines front cover based on the sex pistols we see a very bold and plain background which can show that the magazine is trying to emphasise the uniqueness and power of who is in the main image which is one of the members of the sex pistols this compares to Mojo Magazines front cover as we can see a completely different contrast of colours which are very vibrant unlike Mojo Magazine which in this front cover focuses on very dull and boring colour schemes.
The cover lines within Mojo Magazines front cover are directed at an older age group which found the sex pistols to be more up to date for them which tells us that the age group must be directed to an older group as teenagers would not know who the sex pistols are. However in Top of the pops we see that the cover lines are very directed and up to date to a younger teenage audience directly focused more towards girls which will attract greater attention as the amount of girls compared to the older age group would get more publicity and make more money from the magazines.
Similarly both magazines try to entice the reader by using their cover lines to attract the readers direct attentions to what is in the magazine itself for each specific target audience for example teenagers, girls, men Etc this means that the magazines are trying to entice the reader to continue reading the magazine to gain better publicity and can help them to make a greater profit from their magazines.
Within Top of the pops magazine you can see lots of modern and trendy items and pictures on the front to which allows the magazine to attract a younger target audience as the people in the pictures are generally more child friendly and the reason this is so good for the magazine is because when there are children who want a magazine the parents are there as well so they will pay to get their kids the magazines.
This is different however in Mojo Magazine as we dont see anything to flashy and only in formation on other artists and song writers as well as some news about their lives and tips on how to become like them. There is also not much in the aspect of pictures of celebrities and is very bold and dull which could be done to show the uniqueness of the person in the main image.
Overall there are many things that can be compared to from each magazine and can represent things such as different age groups and target audiences as you can see within both magazines as they show very different colour schemes and different styles of media and music within the contents of the magazines that they focus on.
It would help me to mark this if you embedded in the images of the front covers you are analysing...
ReplyDeleteJamie you have got to read over your work as there are several SPaG mistakes, which makes this quite difficult to read.
You make some good points, but your analysis is usually better than what you have displayed here.
Don't forget your PEE structure --> point, evidence (WHAT PART OF THE MAGAZINE ARE YOU SPECIFICALLY ANALYSING, explanation (WHY IS THIS? HOW DOES THIS ATTRACT THE TA?)
You also haven't included much media terminology.
Overall mark = Level 4.

Ok miss I understand when I did the question I was a little confused on what it was actually asking so this was a pretty bad question for me
