Denotation: what you can see is that t on the right hand side there is a close up image of the celebrity that the article is about. She is dressed formally with a leather it on. Her facial expression is not formal rather than very flirtatious. On the other side of the page there are two other pictures and not as much text and from what we can srethetre is three questions being asked and then later on continues in the other page. The subject is very eye catching and it rhymes in with her name; the font is also very big and could engage the audience, the font contrast with what the article might mean or what it is probably about. There are different sizes of fonts so the readers have some knowledge of what the article is about, the bigger fonts the more knowledge the reader will have on the article. On the other side of the double page, where the main image is being portrayed, there is a quote from the article that is on top of the main picture so readers can have some knowledge on what the article and what questions they might be asking Eva Mendes.
Connotation: the main image on the right hand side of the page could indicate the meaning of the article, this could suggest that the article may be about a male, this is probably because she has a tie and her hair is back, this could also symbolise being a hard working person. On the other side of the double page spread there is two other small images. One of them include Eva Mendes is holding a perfume that is red and noticeable, on the other picture she is wearing red lipstick which contrast with the other picture on the same page. This now make a colour scheme which is black and white and a little hint of red and this continues throughout the double page. The font used could symbolise femininity and probably her explaining her secrets that her fans don’t know about their which could be naughty, which the reader can depict from her pictures and how her facial expressions is.
Mise-en-scene: She is dressed very formally, with her tie and white shirt. A ring is also shown, which could give the reader some understanding of what the article might be about, she probably has jewellery and a perfume line. However, her makeup is very natural but her eyes are very fierce. this could be because she has two other pictures on the other side of the double page and it wouldn’t balance out if there was too much going on, hence the reason why there isn’t that much text being used.
Lighting: There are three pictures on the double page. The main picture s a reader’s high-key light, making it look natural and not to dramatic because it is zoomed in, so the readers will be aware of who the article is about. On the bottom right hand side there is another picture when she has a piece of jewellery in her mouth with very distinctive red lipstick. The lighting of this picture is low-key lighting so her lips and the jewellery is being advertised and is the most noticeable thing in the picture. The last picture that is on the right hand top corner is shot in black and with however the perfume that is being advertised is also noticeable. This is also shot as high-key lighting.
