Representation of Britney in 3 magazines
The picture is a close up and has a direct mode of address. A close up has been used in this image to emphasise Britney’s facial expression. Britney's facial expression emits sadness. This creates a relationship with the reader that is direct and makes the reader feel like a friend who wants to understand her and help her. Mid key lighting is used in this image to show clearly her facial expressions. The colours that are used are red, black, grey, navy blue and a dim yellow. The pink is used to make the title block stand out, so the audience recognise what magazine it is instantly. The bright white and dim yellow is used for the puffs to make them stand out from the Central image. The navy blue text and yellow background shape makes the it exclude itself from the overall colour scheme so demonstrates that it talks about a different subject which isn’t to do with Britney. This image of Britney has been used to because it conveys the feeling that Britney feels weak and is sad this might link to a sad moment in life she is going through. The use of the black and white compliments the emotion that is emitted from Britney. This creates a theme of sadness. The relationship created with the reader is supported by the anchorage text as it demonstrates that Britney is in trouble.
