Posture/Gesture - Both of these photos have similar posture, they both have one arm touching their neck and hair, they also have a straight posture and one arm by their side this makes them look vulnerable to the reader, but both of the photos look relaxed, relaxed to their rise to fame. My model would attract audiences (16-19),judging by the way she is posing, she looks like an Independent popstar who will be able to inspire her young audience to follow her, she has also achieved her dreams and a lot of young people will aspire to that.
Angle - The angles are eye level, so the readers can still see the 'Popstars', can only see the photo on the lefts face as she is looking directly at the camera, she looks friendly which invites the readers to look and get to know the 'popstar', whereas in the right photo she is looking away from the camera as if she doesn't want anyone to know her business.
Shot Type - Both of the images have a different shot type, the shot for the photo on left is a medium long shot, readers can only see her head to her thighs. This is a good shot because the readers will be able to see what she is wearing, her posture and facial expression are all in one photo, so the readers will have an idea of what genre she is from. However, the photo on right is a medium shot, the readers will only manage to see her from head to waist, I am not too fond of this shot, readers won't be able to so her full posture or see most of her clothing.
Lighting - The lighting in these photos are bright and have good quality, this is perfect for both pop magazines. It gives a good sign of positivity and friendliness, readers will be able to see both popstars clearly and focus on just them. The lighting for the photo on the left shows off the bold colours from her colours and her gold hair whereas for the photo on the right the brightness focuses on her black vest top and make-up.
Costume - The costumes in both of the photos are very different, The left photo is wearing a vibrant purple cardigan with grey fading jeans, this will suit the magazine genre well because she is wearing a bold cardigan and she is covered up so she is not exposing herself to her readers which wouldn't give a good impression. On the photo on the right the readers can only see her white T-shirt, the T-shirt almost blends in with the background almost as if the singer doesn't want to be seen
Expression - Both photos almost have the same expression on their faces, but photo on the right is looking away, she looks like she can't look in to the camera, there is no expression on her face at all so she is either being dramatic or she may have a secret and she can't share it. The photo on the left however, is looking directly at the camera, her facial expression looks relaxed and is smiling slightly like as if she's happy with her life at the moment after full-filling her dream of becoming a pop singer.
Hair - Both photos have similar hairstyles, most of their hair on one side and some falling on the other, their hair looks professionally done and neat. The photo on the right has a side parting which means she has more hair on her left side to hide her face than my popstar on the right photo who has a middle parting so the readers can still see her face clearly.
Make-Up - The make-up on both of the artists is quite similar, there isn't too much e.g. bold lipstick & thick eye-liner it just looks natural and makes them both look innocent and noticeable. I think this would give a good example towards my female readers that famous Popstars don't go over the top with make up just to be noticed so they don't have to either.
