I now understand that in a media text everything is there for a reason. For this post I focused on understanding that the denotations all have connotations. I explored the connotations in this tour poster and the impact they have on the reader. For example his big smile and messy hair signifies his warm inviting personality and presents him as a fun, confident character. Also the use of eye contact in the poster makes the audience feel more comfortable and connected to the artist.

I now know that when I create media I need to think carefully about all the aspects of my work and how the font, colours, clothing etc impact the message of the media text.
