So… How can an image communicate meaning?

An image can communicate meaning through framing and mise-en-scene as it is effective in encoding hidden details for the audience to decode. It is important using these techniques as it makes a magazine stand out from others.

High angles can make a person look vulnerable if used in the correct way. In addition to this, if the model acts weak, it will make the camera look more dominant over the model.

Using depth of view to make a person far away look blurry is effective in making it seem like they are a stalker. It’s mysterious as you aren’t able to see what that model looks like.

When I am able to make my magazine, I will use these techniques to make my magazine stand out. I will consider mise-en-scene and different camera techniques to tell a story that my audience is able to understand.
