1. Models:<br />Model 1:<br />Name: Katie Robb<br />Contact Number: 01628525344 <br />Email Address: Woollcotts@ aol.com <br />Date of photo shoot: 5/3/11<br />Email sent - <br />I sent an email to Katie Robb to ask her if she was interested in being one of my models for my magazine.<br />-2540334645Katie’s Reply- <br />Here Katie has replied to my offer of being a model for my magazine.<br />-16827559055000Photo shoot shot types<br />3248025-6350-3810<br />-447675336550<br />32245302439670539752436495403860076201079501270<br />3219450-44450-4445<br />2044065-254004222115-48260-26035-48895<br />3295650191135-24130210820<br />391160455930<br />-24130132080<br />Location:<br />ACTIVITYIS THE LOCATION SUITABLE?ADDITIONAL COMMENTSLook around the location.YesIt is set in and outside my house.Talk to people there, organise filming permissions.YesI asked my parents’ permission to take photos in and outside their house.Identify the equipment you need to use.YesCamera, guitar, Examine and identify any potential health and safety issues(Both people and equipment related issues e.g. crowd numbers being controlled; using safe cabling practices and video equipment being set up in a sensible location that does not block access points or that damages the environment or frightens livestock)YesWhen taking photos outside we have a small pond, I would have to ensure no equipment falls or my model.As part of my garden was decking which was raised I have to ensure my models were aware so they don’t trip over it.When taking images inside I would had to ensure that no objects get damaged such as plants, lights ect... Check the position of the sun and lighting conditions.Ye sI had to make sure that the lighting was correct and no shadows appeared. Also make sure the flash on the camera doesn’t affect the photo.Look for interesting shots and camera angles.Yes I used a range of camera angles to make it look interesting. (MLS LS high and low angle). Confirm times and dates with modelsYesI emailed them to sort out a date for shooting convenient for both of us.Arrange car parking, access, loading, security, where possible.YesThere is plenty of parking space on my drive. The models were able to drive over. Make sure everybody concerned with your photo shoot knows what is happening and what is expected of them when on location.Yes I spoke to them as well as emailing so I could fully brief them on what is expected.<br />Images of location: <br />3030220271145One half of garden, here you can see a small pond/water feature at the end. I had to ensure that no equipment fell in it or else it would get damaged. I would also have to ensure my models are aware of it and tell them to take caution. As you can see this part of the garden is decking. I had to make sure my models knew it was raised so they wouldn’t fall off the edge. This location was good because it has natural lighting. The decking and brick wall gives it a rustic look.00One half of garden, here you can see a small pond/water feature at the end.

It has ‘sleeper’s around the edge so I had to make sure my models knew about them so they didn’t trip over them. I chose this location because the lighting was good as it was natural. I think the brick wall, wooden sleepers and bark gives it a rustic and natural setting.00Second half of garden, here is the grass section with a little decking section.

I used this because i could use the plain background if the painted wall (dark beige and cream/white). It made my model stand out more. The lighting here was not that good because the inside lights give off an orange light which didn’t look good. Also you get the natural light through the glass which created unwanted shadows.00This location is in my house.

It makes my model look sophisticated and fashionable. It makes Katie look like she is glamorous like most female artists I analysed on magazines. I think this costume is appropriate because my target audience dress like this when they go out, therefore they can connect with Katie making them more inclined to buy the magazine.<br />104775222885Smart top and jeggings:This costume is a bit more casual but still gives Katie the glamour’s look. I think this costume portrays Katie as a young realist artist. Most of the artists on the magazines I analysed had very glamorous clothes on which grabbed our attention. However this costume is something my target audience would wear when going out, it looks like something they would wear and may make them more inclined to connect with Katie.00Smart top and jeggings:This costume is a bit more casual but still gives Katie the glamour’s look.

This kind out outfit is something my target audience would wear so they are able to ‘identify’ with Katie and may be more willing to look at the magazine. I think is appropriate because it portrays Katie as an artist/singer as it is party wear giving her a realistic look.00Black top and smart skirt:This costume looks glamorous and would appeal to my target audience.

I think it is appropriate because the genre of my magazine is music so a guitar is iconic. It portrays the idea that the model is a music artist when in fact she is not. <br />Balloons:<br />14224076200This is another prop I used. When I was taking photos of Katie in the purple dress I used balloon’s to add a bit of fun and femininity to the photo. The colours complement the purple dress as they are soft colours. I used this prop because Katie was able to pose around the balloons.00This is another prop I used.

It has a sky line to attract the audience and tempt them to buy the magazine. It has the mast head at the top so attention is drawn to it. I have used one image so it looks dramatic drawing the audience in. The cell lines at the side give the audience an insight into the magazine making them more inclined to buy the magazine.0This is the third draft, I like this one because it is simple yet effective.

I do not particularly like this because there is a lot of white space, this makes it look a little empty and unprofessional. I think the sky line is good because it draws you in. The flash does draw attention to it which is important as it is a selling point. The text does not look good going across the image of Katie.This is a draft front cover,, I used the first draft to set this one out.

I like this one because it looks simple yet effective. The images will build up the reader’s expectations so I think using three will be appropriate. The contents its self is one column and will be easy to read. The contents itself will be a block colour to make it stand out.

I placed the contents itself across the page, this is not the typical way yet I think it looks good. It will be the first thing the reader notices as it is along the top. I used fewer images on this draft so it is not so distracting. Again I have placed the editors not at the bottom as readers do not necessarily read it.I like this draft because the layout is different.

I have used a main image again to raise the reader’s expectations. The use of smaller images will make the audience want to read the magazine. Each image has a caption to tell the reader what page it is on so it saves them time having to look through the whole contents.

The images along the bottom and top of the page are unusual and will attract attention to them. I think the use of pull quotes are effective because it makes the reader want to read the whole article. I like the way the copy is in columns and not straight across, this makes it look more professional. The images all have captions to describe the image.I like this double page spread layout because it will look quite eye catching.

Another reason is that it has a sub title, this would be in a large copy to make it stand out. I like how the images are positioned because it will make the article look interesting. However I do not like how the copy is positioned, there is a lot of it which may be off putting for the reader.I like this double page spread for a few reasons, one is that the title goes along the top of the page, this is different and will defiantly draw attention to it.
