Kerrang! - Front Page semiotic Analysis   The large and alerting masthead stands out as loud and bold conveying a reflection of the magazine's house style and specialist audience - Kerrang! is devoted to rock and metal music The contrast between the bright colour of red and simplistic white creates a masthead that standout attracting readers. - this is seen across the front page included with the  black text along the masthead. this colours are quite harsh and alerting , which suits the niche music style which is loud, harsh and alerting  However the small images of green trees coming out of each side contrast the harsh colours perhaps connoting that the music group imaged in the centre page hold a different style of rock and metal music. - these trees produce a relaxing image on the eye attracting the audience to see something different of Kerrang!'s front page magazine  Again similar to The Wire the bar code is place in an unconventiona...

The Wire - Front Page&Double page semiotic Analysis the masthead is bold and the largest piece of text amongst the entire front page which attracts the audience to what they're reading.                          → the neutral colour of the white front in front of the grey toned blue background creates a subtle and minimalist house style with a relaxed nature. Issued October 2013 The simplistic house-style of the front cover is also a reflection of Matana Roberts and her image/style. she is an artist of the Jazz genre who's a saxophonist , vocalist and composer. The mise-en-scene of her image and style is also a reflection her niche music , through her grudge and edgy aesthetic with her dreadlocks and nose piercing. this look isn't one of a mainstream 'pop' artist who has to follow a particular look to fit their representation The large spacing between her name makes it stand...

Alessia Cara , Khalid - (Def Jam)   To begin the name of the song is a number of  a suicide help line in the U.S ,the song's title already indicates this song is going to have correlations to mental health,suicide,self harm etc. creating a distinctive target audience who those who have these issues , Logic created this song to help them get through the tough battles in their head and around them and give them a form of subtle support.

Music Video Analysis- Sativa by Jhené Aiko ft. Rae Sremmurd   (Def Jam) First opening 30 seconds of the video the mise - en -scene of the atmosphere , holographic keyboard and digital image of a female body , connotes imagery of an 'out of this world' experience and futuristic setting. - Paired with the lyrics later on the audience can conclude the characters and artists are denoting that they are high on a drug substance. ( ' I'm so high in here, been smokin' on this weed ) - additional to this analysis the name of the song 'Sativa' is a name for a form of cannabis - connoting that the purpose of the song and video is about being on drugs and joining the ' out of this world' head space. The Red Led lighting creates a sexual romantic atmosphere alongside the close up shots of the artists body and legs in the water , a common convention of R&B music where women are presented with minimal clothing and are usually seen as objects of desire. ...

Music Video Analysis - Hello By Adele         - ( XL Recordings)  The  mise-en-scene in the opening shot is of a dirty window sill , covered in dead flies - this evokes a sense of neglect perhaps connoting the artists mindset and emotions. The dark lighting and effect could also be used to connote the artists emotions she is trying to denote.  The faded camera shot into a point of view shot , shifts the focus point giving the audience the opportunity to see things through the artists eyes. The dialogue before the music begins gives the audience a slight idea of the song and music videos narrative                                                                                                  ...

Music Video Analysis - Heavy, California by Jungle  -(XL Recordings)  Mise-en-scene-   Setting is in a field amongst a plain of bright green grass and underneath a pale blue sky which seems as if it is due to set. - this setting evokes a sense of freedom and liberation through the wide space and plain open sky. The collective artists are dancing to the song rather than conventionally lip syncing - clear the the audience that the band are quirky and hold a different image and style - suited for a group from an independent record label  They are also dancing in sync connoting uniformity within each other but not the rest of society  The clothing the artists are wearing have neutral colours and a loose fitting - again evoking a sense of freedom , this could connote that the reject restriction from the world and societies structures  Sound-  The song has a smooth , soulful beat - reflective of the...
