This is an image from a Top of the Pops magazine front cover and an image of my own magazine front cover
The postures of both women are similar in that they are
both slightly tilted to the right hand side of the magazine with their right
shoulder farther forward than the left. They are also both giving a direct mode
of address to the audience which makes them look captivating. In addition to
this both women are wearing blue clothing which contrast with the colour
schemes of the magazine and help them to stand out on the page. These clothes
are also similar to what the reader would wear or like to wear and would
attract the audience as they can get fashion tips as well as information of the
artists. The lighting used in
both of the images is also similar as they both have a white background which
makes the page appear bright, the brightness of the lighting makes both of the
images appear appealing as well as giving hints to the genre, i.e light and without a
didactic purpose. Both of the models have different hair, the model on the left
has conventional long dark brown hair whilst the model on the right has short
lilac hair, this could be a unique selling point for this particular issue of
the magazine as it would attract an audience who could be curious about this
model with unconventional hair on the front cover of a conventional pop
magazine. Overall I think these
elements of the photos represent a normal young social group and that my
magazine reflects this throughout – the people featured in my magazine are
mostly normal looking, though they have coloured hair, which is becoming more
popular and prevalent within today's popular culture.
