Analyse the representations of Musicians - Mojo
The Joni Mitchell magazine cover portrays a very ordered layout with the cover lines mostly aligned and one central image. This connotes Joni Mitchell as a serious and authentic musician who is very well respected. This magazine cover uses only sans-serif typefaces which is a common theme in Mojo magazines and portrays Jodi Mitchell as a very modern, independent woman. The colour palette is mostly limited to white, black and blue. This connotes sophistication and elegance. The Main splash shows Jodi Mitchell smiling at the camera which portrays her as very down to earth and approachable. Language used emphasises danger and struggle, "agony". This connotes very serious musicians looked at in a wry manner. The media language presents a world that celebrates serious artistic endeavour.

You need more of this (The Main splash shows Jodi Mitchell smiling at the camera which portrays her as very down to earth and approachable. Language used emphasises danger and struggle, "agony".

You need none of this (The Joni Mitchell magazine cover portrays a very ordered layout with the cover lines mostly aligned and one central image) or this (This magazine cover uses only sans-serif typefaces which is a common theme in Mojo magazines )
