Music Artists: Websites

http://www.khalidofficial.com/


Khalid is  an American singer and songwriter signed to Right Hand Music Group and RCA Records. His music is in the Rhythm and Blues genre, and is best known for his songs ''Young, dumb and broke'' and ''Location''. His songs are aimed at a target audience of young adults and teen agers, but are enjoyed by many people from all different age groups.  

Use of Images:
When you click onto his official website, the first thing you see is a pop-up promoting his newest album. The link gives an image of the album's front cover, and says ''available now'', followed by the logos of big music players, sellers and apps. The website background can be seen behind the image, but is slightly darker and isn't fully on show.
The actual website is simple but attractive, much like the singer's music. A large image of Khalid stood on a beach or dessert is the websites back ground image, and Khalid can be seen wearing an American flag over his shoulders, with his back towards the camera and a small part of the side of his face is seen. The sandy surroundings spread out way in front of him, and indicates to us as an audience that he is an individual, writing songs about him personally and focusing his music on him alone.

From trying to drown one neighbour, to tying someone else up to a tree, the inspector, and equally the audience, are quickly aware not everything is as perfect as it seems, and that the town's residents are actually violent and dangerous on a day to day basis. We see the end of the video showing the inspector being tricked into a large wooden cage-type figure, which has been similarly seen in the 1973 British horror film 'The Wicker Man'. Once locked inside its 'stomach', it is then set alight by the town's people, from which we assume the inspector is left to die, but are shown otherwise as he is see...

Magazine Analysis: The Big Issue

This big issue cover is from November 2017. It features the well known character Paddington Bear, from the many books, movies and programmes made of him. The image of him has been used as both an advertisement for the new film being released, and as a link to the homeless and immigrants from other countries. being part of our community. The image is set in a snowy, night-time London. Homelessness is a big issue faced in the city of London, and as the film is also set there it has a strong link to both of its messages towards the readers. The Big Issue cover features the 'British icon' Paddington in the snow, and is both paying homage to the popular fiction bear and highlighting the issues of homelessness in London at Christmas time.  The background shows us that it is in London, as we can see city buildings and, the most obvious clue, Big Ben's famous clock tower. Just behind Paddington, we can also see the Thames to the right of the image, which once ...
