Make notes speculating about the man in the image;
Who is he? What does he do? What is his story? WHY? How do you
know?
He looks as if he is suffering alone and cold, this is suggested through
again his pose in this still image. For example he is wearing a hat, he is on
his own and not socialising with anyone, he has one hand in his pocket and he
is smoking which may suggest a mild hint at depression. This clothing doesn’t match
and looks very worn and cheap for example the patched up trousers and the
trousers don’t match with the jacket.
Do the same for this woman:
This woman
looks elderly which could imply that she may be retired and now devotes her
life to looking after maybe her children or grandchildren judging by her
innocent clothing and the way she is acting in public. The clothes
that she is wearing can imply many things, first of which being her occupation
which from what I can tell judging by stereotypes will be an author or someone
who does or did something that needs imagination or creativity. I think this
because her clothes look expensive and modern/contemporary and I think that she
cares about how she express’ herself through the clothing she has chosen to
wear. Also the glasses and shoes maybe furthermore bag look very expensive and
trendy.
Then do the same for the Man 2:
This man looks like a stereotypical
French fashion designer, also from this image you may come to the conclusion of
his sexual orientation due to the way that he dresses. This is all because of
stereotypes in the clothing and indeed the fashion industry. Also the way that
he is walking and his posture in this still image portrays a more camp man.
The Man 1 = Doug Bihlmaier buyer for Ralph Lauren.
The Woman = actress Julie Christie.
The Man 2 = Christian Louboutin, shoe designer.
