LIIAR analysis of a music magazine front cover

LANGUAGE:  The colour used in the photo is very minimal.  It includes yellow, blue and a hint of green in the title.  These colours could be used most issues or it could be used to catch the buyers eye.  Colour can also be linked to the person/celebrity on the front cover.  For example, their signature colour (Justin Bieber and purple) or their gender or music genre.  The setting of the photo is a dark and what appears to be music speakers.  This links in with the fact that it is a music magazine.   

INSTITUTION:  This magazine is called Billboard.  This magazine will be a widely known magazine unlike something like a college magazine which would be local.  

IDEOLOGY:  The magazine may be popular within the music scene depending on how many sales it gets.  

AUDIENCE:  The target audience for this magazine will be music lovers.  Its for anyone that is interested in music.  The person/celebrity might decipher whether the person buys the magazine, whether they like them/their music.   

REPRESENTATION:  The magazine seems to be very forward with the main story being 'RHIANNA THE WORLD IS HERS'.  Rhianna is also staring straight at the camera with a quite stern look which could mean she is determined, which links into the sell line.
