Applying Theorists to my media product

The Male gaze theory:
Berger 'Men act and women appear': Theorists and how they apply to our research.

For my A2 course I looked at two  theorist in particular that will help to support my magazine and my photography concept. The  male gaze theory suggests that an audience are forced to view the text from the perspective a heterosexual male, films constantly focus on women’s curves and events that happen to them are portrayed at a male angle. The male gaze denies women human agency, relegating them to the status of objects. Therefore the female viewers experience the text narrative secondarily, by identifying with a man’s perspective (male gaze). In addition she argues that sexism can also occur in the way the text is presented. Moreover, people are encouraged to gaze at women in advertising that sexualizes a woman's body even when the woman's body is unrelated to the advertised product.
As audiences watch films without being watched by the characters they become onlookers of their lives. Therefore they become voyeurs of the people on screen. This can lead to two effects: objectification and narcissistic identification. Voyeurism involves turning the represented figure into a fetish so it becomes increasingly beautiful but more objectified. All in all my by using these theory's it made me want to challenge it and to see how I could convey my magazine cover and the magazine concept as a whole to fit the representation of women in our magazine. The fact that the women in our photos, do not come across as provocative but they still appeal through the male’s point of view show that subconsciously women are appearing for men as they still want to be seen. Furthermore, this also applies to Begers theory of ‘men act and women appear’

Regional Magazine Interview layour page analysis

Regional Magazine interview layout page

 

The colour scheme of the article is very, dull, washed out and boring due to the background being simple therefore this does not complement the photo or the added text down below.

Subheadings and page numbers again are key features that are common in a regional/ local and fashion magazine, they appear at the bottom of every page.

The regional magazine format is very similar to the fashion mainstream  ‘Elle’ as on the right hand side of the regional paper, the format of the picture takes up a double spread  as well as the  title being on the left hand side of the article.

However, on the other hand the layout of text is much bigger and the information is much longer than the ‘Elle’ article. Also at the beginning of every paragraph there is a subheading that is being presented.

 

Fashion Magazine Elle UK - Interview page layout analysis

Elle Magazine UK- Interview Layout

Here is an illustration as to what an interview layout looks like. As a result to this I can clearly see that as the interview is based around the British  model Rosie this is shown with Rosie being presented on a full A4 page . The photograph  is in black and white but again the focus is drawn more to her face, clothing and posture as then model is seen with her hands above her neck and her facial expression is both calm and composed.

Above the model Rosie head is a brief  summary as to what designer she is wearing and the price that it is going for, also the photographers and designers name is labelled.

As the background of this interview layout is basic , simple and white it still does not lack any focus from the Model Rosie as all, the reason for this is that her name is bold and appears in a blood red font and style.

Furthermore, underneath the heading, title and subheading of the article ,  the writer writes a summery of the  work that the British model  has done of the years. This is another key device that is featured in an interview layout that gain tells the audience about her life and who she is before the reader has  even began reading the article.
