Analysing print adverts



Analysing Print Advert

  • Bright lighting and its colourful with all the flowers
  • the layout and design of this print advert is a portrait of a female model who is carrying a bag 
  • The Model is filling the frame looking directly into the audience's eyes showing direct adress. She is also the centre of focus with some of the flowers behind out of focus.
  • The model is clenching the bag implying empowerment which might attract other females to want to buy this 
  • The flowers behind and the outfit the model is wearing suggest this is in more of an informal advert as the model is wearing a normal shirt, headband and sunglasses. Even though this is more informal relaxed setting its still a designer brand so would attract the more wealthy young audience.
  • The brand name is small in the bottom corner of the advert, so that at least half the image is taken up with the products/accessories they are selling.
  • is between a middle and close angle shot to get as much as they can in the advert stand out.

This Advert is representing innocent children in desperate need of help https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENlREl2ywBw The use of the setting represents what its really like for some children and when people see this advert it will generate an emotional response for them to help and take action. The advert start with diagetic sound of a baby crying then we see a young boy in a cot with an empty bottle which suggests he has been neglected. the first word we hear is 'Mum' and this makes the audience wonder where his mum is and why he is not being looked after. All the children we see in this advert are in confined spaces, where there is no safe place for them. They are scared and its dark for them, the girl is hugging her toy tightly to show that this perhaps is the only thing that makes her feel safe. They use direct address like close up shots of the children staring into the camera and a high angle shot with the small boy crouching in the corner which represents vulnerabi...

This set text is from the May/June 2016  Front Page analysis: Bold White Masthead and Headline The main image is a mid shot grainy image of a man. The grainy image further connotates the chaos of a war zone. The man is clenching his fist and this body language makes him look violent as if a...
