Shaune Hazlehurst is creating a magazine called FLAVA focused on hip hop artists. They will photograph themselves for consistency across the front cover, double page spread, and contents page. Classmates will take medium close-up shots of Shaune under high key lighting and they will edit the photos in Photoshop. The photoshoot will take place after school on November 7th to avoid disturbances.

Project title: FLAVA

Project Description:
For my project I will be creating a front cover, Double page spread and Contents
page for my magazine. The Hip-hop genre and my magazine of inspiration will
inspire these, which will be an issue of XXL. I will be including interviews and
biographies from artists that I like. Furthermore the magazine will be filled in
with a number of different adverts like for; Headphones, Clothing, Shoes, jewelry
and drinks. The pages hat require a model will all be of images of myself for
consistency.
Photographer:
 My Photographer will be other class-mates who will photograph me.
 The shot types will be medium close-up without any extravagant angles
used.
 I will have high key lighting.
 Post production I will advance the detail on the photo using adobe
Photoshop.
I used this font as my title as the letters “AVA” in the word Flava work well being
next to each other and add aesthetic qualities to the magazine. The connotations
of the word FLAVA highlight to the reader taking a flavor of the information
within the article from the front cover where the masthead will be placed. The
use of the letters being skinny and ordered highlights the professionalism of the
magazine and its contents which is loosely contrasted by the misspelling of the
word FLAVA which relates to the stereotypical hip-hop vocabulary.

Casting:
I may be using one of these models as they compliment the typical hip-hop
listeners and so they will be viable models for my magazine front cover or other
images inside my magazine.
