The Changing Faces of Jennifer Lopez

Denotation


It is a medium shot.


Connotation

The medium shot lets you see both Jennifer’s and the babies facial expressions.



Denotation

Head is placed in front of the title.

Jennifer stands to the side with her hand on her hip


Connotation

This emphasises her importance. She is more important than the magazine title.

This presents Jennifer in a much softer way than if she was facing forward. It shows her curves and the detail of the dress, representing her glamorous lifestyle and star status.


Denotation


The blue background and sand.


Connotation


The colour blue and the sand makes think of a place hot and summer. This magazine was
probably created during the summertime.


Denotation

The colours of her dress and the background colour
.

Connotation

These colours show heat and warmth which suggests the magazine was published in the summer or maybe these colours show her personality.

  1. Kenny, this is quite a basic analysis with very little use of media language.

    You should be able to find at least 5 points for each image:
    ~facial expression
    ~body language
    ~costume
    ~colour (which you have covered in part)
    ~camera shot/angle
