Danny Worsnop
In this image of Danny Worsnop, his image follows typical conventions of a metal artist, he has long hair and is wearing a black t-shirt, this shows off his look of a metal artist and it gives him a youthful look. Danny is making eye contact with the audience which does show confidence; however it draws our eyes to focus on him. This is a medium close up shot and I think this is used because we are meant to focus on his face rather than the rest of him and this gives the picture a more profile and personal look. The background looks is dark as well and the lighting fades from black out, making the image seem darker, and the background also shows lack of maturity, which links back into the youthful look about him.
Oliver Sykes
This image captures Oliver Syke’s uniqueness of a heavy metal artist, although he has long hair, he is not dressed darkly and it separates him from most metal artists because he loves to wear colour and look bright. His image captures a common look nowadays for people who love metal, and it is very modern. He wears a t-shirt to show off his tattoo’s as he is clearly very proud of them. His hair is straight and not over is eyes, so it gives a mature look to him, however his tattoo’s and t-shirt and his overall pose and facial expression gives a youthful look to him, which is a unique look. The lighting is bright and clearly taken in day time, however the back ground looks rough and abandoned, which could be linked to metal and wear their music videos tend to be taken, also it gives a ‘cool’ look to the photo, however Oliver still drags our attention to him. A medium shot has been used here so we can focus on his upper body, and I think that it gives a youthful look but makes metal music seem less aggressive and gives it a lighter side.
