Magazine analysis 1

I am going to analyse this magazine advert for Gwen Stefani's album 'Love.Angel.Music.Baby'.

The main image of Gwen Stefani is taking most of the space on the page to show she is the artist. She is wearing a white dress and grey fur jacket with a broche. The fur coat and broche are connoting wealth and power. She is sat on a throne and has a crown in her hand. This suggests she has power and dominance. The main colour scheme for this advert is gold, red and white. These colours connote wealth and royalty. The advert has a gold border which suggests it is meant to look like a gold frame. This would suggest wealth. She is showing attitude by the way she is sitting. The masthead which is the artists name is in a themed gold large font which is clearly visible. The tagline underneath which is the album name is also in the same font and in gold and also the single names 'What You Waiting For?' and 'Rich Girl'. The themed font shows consistency and allows the audience to recognise this with the artist. There is a small image of the album so the audience knows what it looks like when they buy it. Gwen Stefani is representing girls and young women.
