Recently i have aslo been looking at some of the female artist like Ariana Grande and Selena Gomez as a good example of how they present themselves in particular magazines as the image is something which is significant,especially, for a girl.

Arian Grande is an artist which has only recently entered the music industry and its quite easy to see her changing between different magazines which apply to different target audience. She features a lot of magazinesfor girls, whether its fashion magazine or music magazines. Her face appears quite a lot of the times. This shows that she must be very popular with younger girls. In the magazines which i have looked at she  comes across as quite a young, crazy and someone to look up to. Shes cool and always has a smiling face welcoming the readers in.

The first magazine for example is one which is not a music magazine but features Ariana which attracts that attention of it being this new pop artist. Even though she is not facing forward the way she is looking back already creates eye contact with the readers. The way she is dressed in the skater hat shows this funky and cool side to her look and personality.

The second magazine is probably another good example of how she is presenting herself to the audience of the magazine which is for young girls all about fashion and beauty. She has a good fashion sense and because of the fact its aimed at younger girls she has to look like a role model. She as a person is coming across as very welcoming, genuine and nice.This is what makes readers get their first impression which is very important.


However as the front cover changes for each magazine as the character profile for the audience aso changes and we are able to see how the imagine of Ariana Grande changes.


We are able to see the way Ariana is dressed that her outfit is far more revealing and the camera angle turns into more of shot which shows more of her body. This magazine is a perfect example of how important the image is aswell as the text around it. Some of the cover lines with words like 'Sex' and 'Bikini body plan' would certainly not be seen on a magazine for the younger girls which are in their 12's +. so i have used this as an example of how important the image and text has to be to match my target audience. And also by using the same person in different ways just shows how much the first impression changes depending on the target audience, customer profile and the actual magazine itself.
