Front Cover Drafts

This is my first front cover I need to change the image to improve this.

Here is my second front cover draft.

Here is my third front front cover draft.

Here is my four front cover draft.

 

Second shoot

This is my second shoot, I feel this shoot is a lot better than the first; the lighting I used were a lot better, the colour of the costume were a lot better and the poses I used were a lot better. I feel like these images will help me create a better magazine.

First Shoot for front cover

This is the first photo shoot I took for my front cover I have used one of these images for my front cover however I am going to change it because the camera I used wasn't the best also my lighting wasn't that good. Some of the pose my model did didn't work for my front cover; when I take another I will use a different camera, arrange the lights differently, change her outfit and change her pose.













I told my modal to stand like this because my original feature story was about her tour being candled because of a pregnancy however I changed this idea because of my target audience and I realised that young girls wouldn't want to know about celebrities being pregnant therefore it would be inappropriate. The lighting in this photo is also really bad.













I picked this dress because I thought it was elegant however I have decided it isn't bright enough there for when I do my shoot again I will change the outfit to something brighter.

Test shots

This a contact sheet of all of my test shots below you will see the best examples for the following shots.

• Medium close up
• Close up
• Long shot
• Two shot
• Example of bad lighting
• Example of good lighting 
• Example of a badly framed image

This image has an example of a badly framed image,
to make the product look good the image should be central
and now have half excess space and part of the models arm
chopped off. 

This image is an example of a bad lighting; there is shadow in the
background and the model looks washed out this is because the light
is too close to her face.

This image is a close up because all you can see is
her head. This wouldn't look good on a magazine front
cover because there would be the writing would cover her
face taking the focus off the main artist.

this is an example of good lighting the artist doesn't look washed
out and there isn't much of a shadow. I think I could of improve
this image by making sure there wasn't a shadow in them at all
but this was the best example of good lighting in the images I
have taken.

This is a good example of a long shot. I like this image
and would think about using a shot like this for my
final images because it shows the artists costume off
clearly also there is enough room to put stories around the
edges and plugs, extra images ect.

This is an example of good lighting there isn't much of  a shadow
and they artist's face looks really good. It isn't the best but it is
the best out of  my images.

This is an example of a two shot. I could of framed
it better and if I did frame it better this image certain
shot would be good for my magazine.
