Answer the following questions and make sure that you use appropriate terminology:

1) How has the image been framed/cropped? What type of shot has been used and why? What type of magazine is this typical of (refer back to the readership statistics)

2) Describe Britney’s costume. What does it suggest about her image? Who is this appealing to?
Her costume is revealing and can suggest that she wants attention from showing off her body. This picture is appealing to most males.
3) Have any props been used? What messages are they conveying to the audience?
There is a phone which connates she has an active social life, and a teletubby which can suggest that she is immature/childish and needs someone to make decisions for her as she constantly makes the wrong ones, etc.
4) What setting is used and what are the connotations of this?
The pink silk background which she is laying on connates her sex appeal to the public.
5) Are any intertextual references being made? What are the connotations of this?
A connotation of an intertextual reference is she is trying to 'pick up' someone (the phone) as she is an uncontrolable teen that does not listen to adult advise about how to present herself.
6) What colours are used and why?
Pink is used to show her feministic side. This connates her attractiveness to reader and in perticular males.
