Teen Film Posters

17 Again

The main photo is of Zac Efron which may be use to portray a teenager in their prime with fashionable clothes or as some call it these days 'swagger'.
In addition the slogan used (who says you' re only young once?) may be illustrated to signify what the film is about and images used such as the suit and briefcase on the floor represent the hatred for adult life and the love for teenage life.  














Kidulthood
The setting the poster seems to look like a very urban area which contributes to how the teens look. in addition the clour are very dark which may infer that the area they live in is bad. Evidence odf this may be the baseball bat seen being held by one of the teens .
the slogan (before adulthood comes kidulthood) is very short and catchy and may relate to every day life .

The Beginning

First Magazine- VIBE
This is the first magazine I have analysed. My choice of 'Vibe' magazine is based on my interest in the music industry therfore I thought it would be a good idea to anaylse a magazine of my interest.
The colour used on the cover contrast each other as you are using a bright colour on top of a dark one which makes the bright orange stand out even more.
In addition the font size also is a big factor when analysing especially the name 'Michael Jackson' as that would get the public attention to the size of the font and who the person is, it almost as if the bright colour orange is to signify the importance the story or the celebrity.
Continuing my point on celebs the closeup shot of Michael Jackson is the most eye catching factor as it takes up most the cover and because of who the picture is of gives the reader the impression that there is some information or a story on Michael Jackson.
