Maybe Changing my Idea….

I didn't realise at the beginning of this module that the first pictures we picked would lead into our essays; I just picked a gig poster I liked and felt able to write about for the first task. I feel like I should change my idea into something that has a bit more depth, for example environmental problems. It will be easier to find secondary research to reference in my final essay this way, and probably will have a lot more illustrations to refer to as well. The gig poster idea would be great for the practical final piece in this module, but I am struggling to come up with an essay question. 



*Although I did find these links about gig posters today and the relevance of them...

Five images that suppport my analysis







These are five images that support my analysis of the gig poster, as I think they have been created to work for, support and advertise brilliantly the event they are about. Two of them are more examples of how the Arctic Monkeys use women as a symbol of fashionable attraction to build a brand for themselves, via male and female fans, as they did in the previous poster.
