Print Media that Communicates Meaning

From this task, I have learnt there are many components and ideas to create media to fit it’s overall purpose. Even small aspects such as facial expression of the band members and the colours chosen for the images. These aspects convey the ideas that the band are quirky and confident. The overall connotations of this tour poster is simple and plain but still represents a lot about how the band is unique and edgy.

Mise En Scene is an essential element of how meaning is made in Media. Every costume, hair style, lighting state, location, prop, accessory, posture, gesture, facial expression is there for a reason – to tell a story, convey an idea and an image. I’ve used this to analyse this tour poster to see how the band itself is presented to it’s audience.

This task will help me to make my music magazine as successful as possible. This is because I know how each aspect and component is important in creating a purpose and portraying how I want my magazine to look. Through the costume, expression, colour choices etc. I know how to create my own and to make it best fit for it’s purpose.
