Language: the font size within the double page spread is professional as we can see clearly that when the font size goes big then we know that its a sub title. the language that is used is a caption as we then find out if we didn't know already who the picture is off. we only see 4 colors within the double page spread, this is used because they want it too make the girl the main subject to the audience. the girl is wearing a puffy dress, this is to show that she is fashionable, this magazine is good because there are repeated images of the girl to show that she's the main thing on the page. on the title the main thing is in a different color, the title is in bold to make it stand out, we see the logo and what color it is in the top left corner of the double page spread, the caption below the model is in black bold lettering. this is good because to read the article we would need to know who the model is and you could find this in the caption, we can see that this shot is a pose shot and creates effect because she is trying to get across that she is a stereo typical good looking female, what i mean by stereotypical is that when we think of a model or a celebrity woman the first word the audience thinks of is dazzling, and very good looking.
Institution: we know that the magazine is published by NOW magazine. the history behind NOW was launched in late 1996 as a less serious, more gossip-oriented magazine aimed at women. A series of high-profile celebrity relationships. this got across to the audience an easy way to find out about certain celebs in the industry that they're in we saw such celebrities for example, David Beckham, Victoria Beckham, And Jennifer Aniston. as you can see we know the magazine is created by NOW because of the logo that represents the company's name and reputation.
Ideology: the attitude behind this double page spread is that she is a cocky person because she is good looking and that is what she is trying to promote. she is doing a series of pose shots to create the affect that she is a sexy model, who has had a great carer, also the attitude is very serious which connotes that the magazines gossip is taken very serious as it can be. the magazine sets out too look like they only want good looking people to read there magazine as they have a dazzling model stood there giving of the denotation that she is very pretty.
Audience: the audience on this double page spread looks like its to women or late teens as the age of the model is quite old, on the other hand you could say that the younger generation could read this magazine and look up to the lady as a role model. they will want to buy this magazine because they want to find out the gossip about the celebrities or life stories about them as shown in this double page spread. this magazine tends to give off the impression that its funky and classy as the color range is varied throughout the magazine.
Representation: the representation to this magazine is that its very classy and good because of the looks on the model and the color representation as it seems to the audience that its almost fabulous. on the other hand you could say its biased as the audience is categorized basically to women as the main headline is about the woman and her life and whats shes done throughout it the caption is very large and stands out so we know who the articles talking about which gives us a good representation.
