4. Images; plans about locations for photos, make-up, hair, clothes, styling, lighting, Mise en scene. Mise En Scene Location Make Up Hair Styling Clothes I think our image would best suit not being in any particular location for the contents main image, and just have a plain coloured background to make the image of the person stand out. But the individual pictures may be in an outside setting. Clothes that I think would look most appealing on the person would be clothes that are in contrast to the colour of the background to make them stand out, so for example if there was a plain white background, they should wear colours that would stand out, like purple. I think in the picture for the contents the picture used would have to be plain and blend in with the colour of the background of the contents. I also think the clothes used would have to be similar to the one in used on the front cover to show that it is linked. There will also be a couple small pictures of the other artist which will be random. For my main image on the contents I am using a male artist so therefore wouldn’t need to be using make up. I want the hair on both artists to be styled either way. With the male I think a simple spikey hair style would look good as quite a few R&B stars do that, however with the female I’d want it to be styled more and maybe be put up and curly. Body language would be different for the image on the contents, for this image I want the artist to be looking away from the camera so it’s a whole different style. I think in the picture for the contents the picture used would have to be plain and blend in with the colour of the background of the contents. I also think the clothes used would have to be similar to the one in used on the front cover to show that it is linked.

5. Images; plans about locations for photos, make-up, hair, clothes, styling, lighting, Mise en scene. Mise En Scene Location Make Up Hair Styling Clothes I think my image would be best in no particular location, but where a plain background is present to allow my image to stand out. My main image will be best taken in an outside location and the smaller image I will find a plain white background in school in order to take this photo. I think the clothes that would be best are clothes that would contrast with the background, my background is a light colour therefore dark clothes would be best to enable them to stand out. I think in the picture for the contents the picture used would have to be plain and blend in with the colour of the background of the contents. I also think the clothes used would have to be similar to the one in used on the front cover to show that it is linked. There will also be a couple small pictures of the other artist which will be random. For my main image on the contents I am using a female artist therefore I have used light make-up around the eyes to accentuate the face. I have included a small image of a male artist so therefore wouldn’t need to be using make up. I think it would be best for my female artist to have her hair down and curly, adding emphasis on the photo. For my male artist I think spiky hair would be best, to show the difference in male/female stereotypes. Body language would be different for images on contents, both images I have used are taken from different angles/positions. My main image is a full length photo taken from front angle. The smaller image Is side photo of the face. I think in the picture for the contents the picture used would have to be plain and blend in with the colour of the background of the contents. I also think the clothes used would have to be similar to the one in used on the front cover to show that it is linked. There will also be a couple small pictures of the other artist which will be random. CHARLOTTE:
6. I like this image because there is a variety of colours used in this picture so its quite eye catching. The colours are also bright so therefore gives the impression of summer which may also mean happiness. I also like the fact that it’s a full body close up, it’s a long shot as you can see the background too, so this picture has a lot to say for itself which I think is quite attractive. I like this picture because it has a background to it so its not just plain. I also like the fact that she is sitting down which is a change from all my other images where they are standing up. The image is also taken from a different angel as most of my shots are taken from straight on. This image is a medium close up but the artist is also looking away which gives a different image to him. I like the way it’s a blank background but has a brick pattern so its not totally plain but would easily blend into the contents page. Also the fact that its plain I think it would make a good contents picture as more complex pictures can be used in the double page spread. I like this image because it’s a long shot so it’s a full body image so can see all of his body language which is very laid back and I just think he over all looks like an R&B artist. With a long shot you can also see what he is wearing which appears to be stylish, the way someone is dressed can appeal to certain people so I feel that it can be important to show the whole body.

7. CHARLOTTE: I like this image because it shows my female artist face on to the camera, when using this for my contents page it will help to draw in the audience’s attention. I like the brick affect in the background, it makes my image stand out. My artist is wearing dark colours in order to stand out. I have added an effect on this image, to darken the background and to allow the artist to stand out. I like this image as it shows a side on angle of the artist. The audience is not particularly focused on this image, but it is there to separate the articles, to keep the reader interested. I have kept the image in colour to keep the magazine interesting, using more than one image shows a break up of what is included.
