In the MOJO magazine we see Ray Davies in a monochrome print looking upwards. We see this image and it looks very serious. The monochrome photo helps with this serious theme because it is as if what he is looking at is serious. We can tell this man is a musician because he is the center of visual interest of the MOJO music magazine. He covers the title to show his importance and also exaggerates the serious expression on his face.
Nothing on the magazine covers this image to show that he is the main musician and that he is extremely important. Next to him is the text describing the story and why he is the CVI of this music magazine. There is also space around Davies' face to once again show the importance and significance of him being there.
Mark 2 out of 5. Whilst you have made some relevant points on the representation of Ray Davies, you need to also look at the language used to describe him.
ReplyDeleteYour focus needs to be more on the representation (= how he /they come across?)
