DESCRIPTION
Media WorkTRANSCRIPT
Magazine company is confident enough
to cover up their master head because
they are well known
The colour pink represents the girly
side of Katy Perry which would
appeal to teenage girls
By Katy Perry wearing floral
and holding flowers shows
that she is innocent and
young
I can tell that this is a
magazine cover because of
the master head and that
they have a cover star which
is taking up most of the front
cover
By having the
star’s name in
bold writing it
will attract
people’s
attention
when the
magazine is on
the shelves
and they may
be tempted to
pick up the
magazine
The way the
magazines would
be stacked on
shelves you
would see the
artists’ eyes
following you.
Where the
artist is placed,
you will just be
able to see her
face, which if
you are a fan of
the artist you
would pick it up
to read
By using the T-
theory it can
show you what’s
inside by just
how the
magazine is
placed in the
shop. Whereas if
using the C
theory some of
the information is
cut off
Billboard is an American music magazine, originally
headquartered in New York City, New York and now owned
by Prometheus Global Media. The company owns and
operates a number of major entertainment industry trade
publications and their associated digital properties, including
Back Stage, Film Journal International, and The Hollywood
Reporter.
The target audience for this magazine is teenagers. For this
specific issue it would be for teenage girls because it is pink and
has a famous pop singer
By pointing the
arrow to the
audience shows
that this film is in
the action
adventure genre.
The main
characters facial
expression
represents that
she is fighting for
something
important. In this
case it’s to win the
hunger games
The tagline is large and bold to get
the audience/ viewers attention. It is
mysterious yet relevant to the film
The poster suggests that the mood is
quite angry and intense. I would say
this by the use of fire in the
background. Also how the bow and
arrow is pointing to the audience
The target
audience would
be young
women/
teenagers due to
the weapons
used and the
main character
being female it
would attract
more women
that men
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire is a 2013 American adventure film

Hunger Games film series, produced by Nina Jacobson and Jon Kilik
and distributed by Lionsgate. Lions Gate Entertainment Corporation

The main colours used in the poster are blues. Dark blue
usually suggests intelligence, which Steven Hawking is.
Hawking is admired by his intelligence as well as his
disability. By using the lighter blues suggests that there is
a sense of hope by meeting his future wife, Jane Hawking.
The way that he
is dressed in
dark blue
whereas she is
dressed in light
blue could
imply that she
is healthier
than he is
By having the famous
actors and actresses
on the top of the title
will help promote the
film because fans of
those actors would
want to see the film
Having the title in white makes it
stand out and it implies that there is
love and purity in the film
The Theory of Everything is a 2014 British biographical
romantic drama film directed by James Marsh and
adapted by Anthony McCarten from the memoir
Travelling to Infinity: My Life with Stephen by Jane Wilde
Hawking, which deals with her relationship with her ex-
husband, theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking, his
diagnosis of motor neurone disease, and his success in
physics.
He has his head down which shows his
vulnerability.
Casual but neat clothing, implies that
he cares about his appearance
The text used on this CD cover is simple which
allows the audience to focus more on him and his
emotions
The dull and dark background colour used
conveys there is a mystery to his music which
isn’t shown on the album cover.
