This task taught me how important every aspect is in media in creating the desired narrative, for example, the pale colours of her vest as a costume and natural makeup portraying an elegant and natural self glamour and worth. Furthermore, the cover provided a very fresh and friendly vibe to this uplifting cover. Moreover, the name of the album “sweetener” infers a femininity and youthful side to the album.

In this task, I analysed the mise-en-scene and thought of how these aspects added to the overall feeling of this individuals tour poster. This information will help me when creating my music magazine:

  • I know what needs to go on the tour poster, as using Blumler and Katz theory we can tell that this particular media has minimal text but is very eye-catching and easy on the eye.
  • I understand how the colours I use will convey a message and give off a specific vibe for the cover.
  • I understand about the effects of a model’s body language, costume and makeup.
  • I am able to choose a typeface that would suit the poster and convey the message I wanted to put across to the audience.

All of these aspects will make sure that my magazine is successful in portraying my ideas and that the artist has sales but also have an audience to perform to.
