To be successful in media, all media texts have to have convey a narrative, giving meaning to an image and an idea.

As a media student, I need to be able to decode and deconstruct other pieces of work, adding connotations and highlighting what different aspects represent in a successful poster. For example I decoded a Justin Bieber poster as you can see above. Having destructed and decoded this poster, I’ve demonstrated that I understand how different fonts, colours and body language help convey a meaning to each individual poster, portraying the artists aim of their work. As media uses signs and symbols to create narrative, I need to take this into consideration for my own work, ensuring that my media magazine has a clear narrative, including all of the different aspects in media that make up a media magazine that conveys a clear representative of what my genre is.
