Textual analysis 2

Rolling Stones magazine is another popular music magazine. It contains articles and information about a variety of different artists. I feel like the title of the magazine doesn’t stand out as much as the first one on the magazine did. What stands out the most is the man wearing the hoodie. The hoodie creates an image of the man being dangerous, to be feared.  The stubble on his face gives the impression he isn’t clean-shaven; he isn’t trying to look perfect. The fact he has bits of grey within his stubble also gives us the impression that he isn't afraid of aging like some celebrities are, he doesn't mind growing old gracefully instead of trying to hide it. The expression on his face shows the reader how he is more of a serious person, possibly more mysterious as he isn't showing anything about his character. The image shows him with his hood slightly unzipped, this gives the impression that he is more relaxed. The shot of him is done quite closeup compared to other front covers that shoot celebrities from far away, this is showing how confident he is within his own skin that he doesn't mind readers seeing him up and close. The colour scheme for this front cover is quite plan. The writing and background sticks to a black, white and silver colour scheme, the mans 'hoodie' isn't part of the colour scheme as its the only part of the front cover that is orange, this is showing how he stands out from the crowd, he likes being different and not following the crowd as not many people wear such a striking colour.
