A front cover analysed

This is the front cover of a billboard magazine with Billie Eilish on the front cover. The target audience of this magazine will be Billie Eilish fans who tend to be aged from 13-20 so the teenage years.

The phrase ‘rebel with a plan’ portrays the message of Billie herself being a rebel. This message is also conveyed by the use of all the jewellery she is wearing and the careless look on her face. The fact that the image is in black and white also shows an edgy yet basic side to her. Billie’s favourite colour is black so this conveys her as a person well.

However the word rebel contradicts the word plan also, this is significant as she gives off a very rough look which is similar to her style of music, yet is under control and has a secretive plan.

 

This time we were allowed to pick our own magazine cover rather than the last task where we were allocated one. I liked this because I could choose one I was more interested in, I could analyse and annotate this magazine a lot more easily as shown in the slide above. I managed to find most of the information about target audience, price, mission statement and the audience psychographic so I included everything I could find into this poster to make it as informative as possible.

I also made the background of my slide the same colour as the ‘billboard’ masthead, this was to make the overall look of the slide more attractive and tie together well.
