research and planning- bands and artists that I would associate with my genre

I asked 8 people what their favourite pop band or artist is from the past or the present. These are the results. Also I have wrote a little bit about each one.

JLS
JLS are a typical pop group and all four of them are appealing to girls. This image of them is good because they are all looking straight down the camera lense and look as though they are looking at us ( the audience). Also they all have the same colour clothing on which makes them look part of the same group and like they are all one. As well as this they are wearing skinny jeans which are fashionable and fit the casual look of pop artists.

The Wanted
The Wanted is a pop group. In this image all of the members look quite silly and this picture is not posed. I like this image because it shows a more human and fun side to the band. They are all wearing casual clothes in this picture and look very down to earth even though they are celebrities.

Westlife
Westlife are a pop group with four members. This image of them is good because they are all looking straight down the camera lense and look as though they are looking at us. Also they are all wearing casual clothes in this picture and look very down to earth. this is the type of image I want to use for my magazine cover.

Katy Perry
Katy Perry is a pop artist. I like this image of her because she looks very classic and iconic. Also this picture is different from the norm because it is black and white instead of colour. As well as this katy perry is looking down the camera and looks as though she is looking at the audience. This makes her seem relatable. This is the kind of shot I want for the pop artists in my magazine.

Take That
Take That are a pop group with four members. I like this picture because they all look serious and like they mean business. This image of them is good because they are all looking straight down the camera lense and look as though they are looking at us ( the audience). Also they all have the same colour clothing on which makes them look part of the same group and like they are all one.

Pixie Lott
Pixie lott is a pop artist that appeals to both girls and guys. In this picture she looks quite rough around the edges instead of looking perfect. Also his image of her is good because she is looking straight down the camera lense and looks as though she is looking at us. This makes her relatable. As well as this she looks edgy and like she is making a statement.

Enrique Iglesias
Enrique Iglesias is a pop artist that mainly appeals to girls. This image is good as it will appeal to his TA which is girls because he is showing his muscles. Also he looks as though he is looking at us and looks quite serious. As well as this he is wearing casual clothes in this picture and looks very down to earth and normal.

Adele
Adele is a pop artist who appeals to both girls and guys. I like this picture of her because it looks very artistic. Also I like the purple colour scheme running through this image. As well as this it is obvious this image has been airbrushed to make Adele look perfect. This is quite common with artists in the pop genre. Moreover she has no expression on her face which makes this image look intriguing.
