The Beatles photo analysis

This image is set on a street road, it shows all four of the Beatles walking across a zebra crossing. The image is shown in a long shot showing all members and some of the background area. Non of the band members are looking directly at the camera and have no facial expressions. John is wearing a white suit where as all of the other members are wearing dark colors such as blacks and blues. This suggests to the audience that john is the leader as he is in contrasting colors to the rest of the group. The photo has been staged and the purpose of this image is to be on the front of their final album 'Abby road' which was released in September 1969. This is an iconic image of the Beatles.

Target A

To achievemy target my research, planning and evaluation must be detailed, effectively communicatedand presented digitally, using a wide variety of formats. I need detailed research into similar products and target audience and to show the process of planning by including excellent work on shotlists, drafts, storyboards,scripts, locations and props. I need to show full evidence of the research and planning informing the construction process. My evaluation must reflect my excellent understanding of forms and conventions, an
understanding of the use of new media throughout the stages of production, the way my ancillary and primary tasks combine effectively. There will be an excellent understanding of the significance of audience feedback. My production work, across the formats, will demonstrates excellent creativity and
imagination as I seek to make them as convincing as possible and it will also reflect my mastery in technical skills such as controlled use of the camera, attention to framing, variety of shot sizes, close attention to mise-en-scène,appropriate transitions and use of sound.
