Evaluation Question 2

I have chosen an image of Chris Brown as he is similar to my cover model as they are psycho graphically and demographically similar, and would both attract my audience. Both images are mid-shots although my image is further away. Another similarity is the subjective arm pose both subjects have, however the arms on my image are a bit higher signalling a belief in faith. There are differences in gesture with the images. My model has his head slightly tilted up which connotes superiority or attitude. The other model has his head and eyes looking at the reader. Both models have neutral facial expressions connoting a "respected" attitude. As my image is a studio image I have been able to position the artificial lighting as I desired. I chose a plain white background but with the lighting it gives off a grey style the light and shade adds drama that the facial expression and gesture contribute to. The opposing image has a completely black background. The clothing of both models is similar as they're “show off” clothes but at the same time give a bold simplistic image so they stand out. The attitude and clothing both models have would attract my audience as they are aspirators as they wish to be like them.
