Connotations

The Title (Vanity Fair)

I feel that the title is very professional in the way that all the letters use sharp and acute angles and elongate letters. This is very American and makes the magazine stand out.

Also the title is also in white which means to me that the title is pure and every thing in this magazine is right and has no sins within it. The Title (Bond)

I feel that the title shows that the power of bond and how he has power because of how bold it is.

I feel that how it is in red fount shows the power that Bond holds with his role.

The Main image (‘James Bond’- Daniel Craig)

I feel that the image show the cheekiness of Bond and how he has lots of power. I can see this from the sharp and dashing suit he has gone for because this shows he has lot of power and control.

Also he is laying on a female body and covering up the lady genitalia. I think this shows his power and that he can protect anyone he likes. He is also not fazed by leaning on a woman's which show his primal in stinks and that he is able to do what he wants because not many other would have the chance to do this.

The colour scheme

Is a very dark green which gives the feeling of power and money, which is what Bond has a lot of. In many ways such as his power to be able to lean on woman like pillows. Which shows so much power. His suit looks to be tailor made because of well fitted it is and how sharp it is. A tailor made suit is usually cost a lot so it shows his money.

The Font Type

The fount is a font made especially for Vanity Fair, it is called ‘SVF Sans Condensed Font’ .I think the font is very American and all most a up market font, which matches the magazine because this is know to be a magazine only read by celebrities and high power people.

Connotations

The cover lines

The cover lines are either side of Bond and above the title I think this is because they want to put a emphasis on Bond and don’t want people to be side tracked by other stories.

The Michael Jackson story is above the title which also show the importance of the story because it is been seen to more important for the reader to read that story about Michael Jackson first before the title.

Connotations

Who is the audience – how do you know this

I think the audience is of a older generation, and a upper class person because of the font and the story's in side which are of a mature view, because when Michael Jackson was famous was along time ago and people who do not know Michael Jackson well would not want to know as it was along time ago his audience is now quite mature.
