Why?
For my magazine, I
will need to take
midshots for my
images, as this is
what is seen on the
front cover of my
magazine of
inspiration ‘We Love
Pop’. I will use a
camera (Canon
IS500), tripod and
Adobe Photoshop
CS5.1 for editing the
photo, and
removing the
background. I will
also use high key
lighting to ensure
the images are well
lit, ensuring there
are no shadows on

my models’ face. I
will ask my models
to wear appropriate
clothing which will
appeal to my target
audience, including
bright colours, and
girly clothes. I will
use Emma Walker
as I feel that she fits
the stereotype for
my magazine genre.
Permission Needed
Contact needed to be
made
Evidence of this?
When taking the
photos for my
magazine, I will
require the
permission of the
models, to make
sure it is okay to
take and use the
pictures of them in
my magazine, as
well as permission
to take photos
around school.
Potential
Hazards/Risks
Location specific
Any wires lying
around will need to
be cleared around
school so they are
no longer a hazard. I
will also need to
ensure there are no
bags or coats that
people could trip on.
I will also make sure

that there are no
nails or potentially
harmful objects in
the wall, so that my
models will not get
injured. As I am
taking my pictures
outside, I will need
to take them on a
nice day, when it is
not raining and
there is no ice or
puddles that my
models could slip in.
and potentially
harm themselves.
