School Newsletter Analysis

This is my analysis of the Deyes High School newsletter. As you can see, there is an image of the school at the top. Its not the most formal newsletter front cover i've ever seen because there isnt that much information on there, just an image, a date, what issue and the name of the school. That is it. The fact that the 'DEYES' is significantly bigger than the rest of the text conveys a large name for the newsletter. The newsletter doesn't show much originality or colour as it is all in black and white and such a plain boring font. The image at the top looks to be hand drawn which has some quality about it but the fasct again that it is in black and white doesn't appeal as much.

Semiotics

A theorist called Saussare stated that in everything there is a sign and signified. If sunshine and smiles is the SIGN then happiness is what has been signified. So basically everything happens for a reason within film or T.V. Denotation is what you can see on the film or programe. Connotation is what this might suggest and why it is there.

Mixed Genre Moodboard

This is my moodboard. It is full of Genres from Rock, R&B, Rap and Pop. For my actual music magazine cover I will be basing my model on Pixie Lott. The costumes in these pictures represent the type of people they are and what type of music they produce in a huge way.
