Image analysis composition
This image main focus is the word love wrote on his hand which appears in all four images. The 4 images represent his mixtures of feelings and emotions about love. with it being separate images in blocks the audiences readers from left to right, top to bottom, therefore the first image is the one of the man with his hand covering his eyes. love on his hand which is covering his eyes may suggest his is blinded by love, or cannot face it. When someone hides there face it is usually because they are scared or because they want to hide away from something and not face reality, in this case its seem reality is love. The L on love is in the centre of the image making it the main focus as the shading begins to darken towards the end of the end of the word, this may imply he cant face fully loving someone/thing.
The next image shows more of his face however still the audience sees now eye contact however do see more of the eyes. One eye is more visible than the other suggesting he is maybe oping up a bit more to love. The left hand side is much darker than the right because of his dark costume and body positioning hiding his face.The right hand side of him is more lighter suggesting things are getting brighter for him , possible to do with this confusion on love. There is a brighter light behind him slightly highlighting him making him stand out. The positioning of his hand to his head and his head down hows he is confused or possible upset about something.The top of the hand has light shining down on it drawing focus to it and making the love much more visible. The black writing stands out on his white hand, this could suggest his open views and race and how he may link/ sing about all races and ethnicity.
The next image totally cuts out his eyes allowing the audiences to have no contact with him at all and not be able to attach themselves with him. His knuckles again have a brighter light shinning on them drawing the attention to them, also the fact they are in slightly left of the centre third causes them to be the first thing the audience looks at. However, the lighting changes at the fist of the hand where love is actually written again possibly meaning it is still a dark shady area in his life. however, he has opened up to love now allowing the audience to see the full word at a straight face on view. His clenched fist could suggest a number of things in relation to his music, emotion and feelings to wards love and life. it could imply anger and aggression, on the other hand because his arm is in an upwards position it make a symbol of success and defeat. In this image we do get a clearer image of the facial features which we can see-his mouth.his facial expressions is quit straight however the lines around his mouth may be due to a slight smile possibly about to occur. the final image shows none of his face at all suggesting his head is no longer in the frame of love however just his heart. His hand positioning and camera shot from the left hand side with his body slightly turned to the right implies he is backing away from love as its now hit is heart . The hand is the largest part of the image and takes up the most screen space drawing in all the attention. Once again the love is not completely shown as it doesn't show all of the final letter.
His style of the jacket and scarf suggests quite a fashionable but basic look which might reflect on his music-relaxed and easy listening. His styles hair shows he takes acre of his appearance maybe inferring his is a bit of a ladies man and this is why the love confusion is taking place. The costume, body language,lighting and main focus on Love might mirror what his lyrics contain. His body language doesn't make him appear very confident however his stylish appearance and care for how he looks shows suggests he does like to be out there and viewed by people. i think the lyrics will be quite deep and dark expressing a lot of personal emotion about love, fear and confusion. it is rare a male openly expresses there emotions as obvious as this image has this might prove his individuality and this reflects on his genre of music.
This image i a natural multiple person shot centralising the male character who's body language and facial expressions suggest he is happy to be surrounded by these four girls. The costumes of the girls make them look more like girls and not ladies, they still look like they are in their teens and have their own casual styles and appearances. The coloured costumes and confident happy look on the girls faces suggest they are confident bold and out there as if they are happy for the attention by the man. It is the mans eye line which is the highest and because he is central the immediate first focus is on him The girls eye lines are all around the same height in the centre third making none of them have more importance due to this factor. However, the blond one on the right hand side at the end does grab the audiences attention more despite been on the opposing dominate side of the image. This is because she is positioned slightly more forward due to the angle of the camera shot as it seems to be taking more from a right angle. Each girl has different costume on and it gives the audience and idea of there individuality and personal taste despite all been one unit. The personal appearance and slightly different looks which each character brings represents the slightly different twist they add to the music genre. Despite this there bold bright confident colours suggest they are mainstream and this is reflected by their clothes. In general the group of girls look like a popular happy mainstream band who are well united and this shows in there body language and positioning and the fact they haven't been forced to stand like this as it is a natural photo and not taking is a studio- it looks spontaneous. It is a medium close up of this shot which allows the audience to see their facial expressions close enough without been zoomed in but it also provides a sense of unity through the positioning which the audience is able to see through this camera work.
