proposal for my magazine

1. Proposal For “The Vibe”
The magazine I will be doing will be based on music and I
will be looking at music and what’s going on in the industry.
The name of the magazine will be titled “The Vibe”. The
name is quite simple and it fits in with this magazine,
because as music is a thing that people use to get away from
problems and relax, they get on a certain vibe. For the main
image of this magazine cover, I will be taking pictures of one
of my classmates. My classmate will be doing certain pose to
make him look like a music artist and more professional for
the magazine. He will also be wearing clothes fitted for the
magazine cover; this would involve wearing a check shirt
and jeans. The model of this magazine cover will be the main
topic of the magazine as that’s why he has been chosen to
represent the magazine.
The main theme of my magazine will be Music and all the
other photographs I take will be linked with the idea. The
front cover will include a blue background but with a blue
gradient style with black text for the title. The magazine will
also have yellow text for the sub-titles but also with black
writing. The magazine will include a price tag and a barcode
to give it more of that realistic look to it.
The magazine will have a very simple look to it and the
clothes that the model will be wearing won’t be too much
but will reflect on the theme. As the image will focus on
giving people that intention to buy the magazine, the font
will fittin with the theme and will use a font that matches
with the magazine.
Equipment –
The equipment I need for my photo-shoot will consist of a
camera, tri-pod and a white background. The camera I am
going to use is a canon 600d (18-55mm) I will use this

2. camera to capture the photos I need for my magazine and
the lens can take shots of close ups and wide shots. I’ve
chosen this camera because it’s the best option. For the
image, I will also be using a white background so the camera
takes decent and clear images. The model won’t be using any
props but will have a certain stance that will make him look
professional and look like an artist.
Location Recce -
The following studioshoot
will be one of the main places
where I take photos, and I will
be using this studio to take
photos as it will let me
capture the picture using a
green screen to edit photos.
The studio also involves
lights, and with the
photographic background I will be able to take clear photos.
Location shoot – The location shoot will be at
Heath Park as this is because the photos I
need I am able to capture because they will
work well with the magazine I am creating.
The location of my photos will be done in the
studio room between the media classes, and
the risk assessment should disallow any
dangers to occur.

3. Production Schedule & Contingency Plan -
The sort of photos I will be taking in the studio of my model
will be wideshots on a white background, and on the whole,
it should take around 3 minutes to complete. The process
will be done after school, ranging from 4:30 – 4:45, and I will
be taking quite a few pictures pf my model. I’ve also took
quite a few pictures in school of a different model, and this
was done in the morning at around 10:00 – 10:15am.
The studio shoot is done on the date 21.01.2015 and the
model has been booked for this exact day as they have
signed the contributes release forms. I should be taking
photos in the studio at around 10:00 – 10:15am, and 16:00 –
16:15, and the dress code for the main model used in my
magazine will be a chequered shirt, and the other model will
be wearing the normal sixth form attire which looks like a
normal business suit.
If the location shoot is unavailable on the day which it
shouldn’t be, I would then have to switch over to the next
day. Things such as bad weather won’t have an effect on my
shoot, because all the photos I will be taking will be done
inside. However, things such as the amount of people in my
studio shoot could have a big effect as equipment could be
damaged, which could cost a lot of money.
Legal and Ethical –
There will be a model which will be doing a little pose on the
front cover of my magazine, and I will need their permission,
and sign a form, or I wouldn’t be following the rules such as
copyright. I will need permission for the location I will be
using else I will be using property which belongs to someone
else. If the model I am using in my photo doesn’t sign a
release form then I won’t be able to use them, and do this
project as it’s against the law. If my model was wearing

4. certain clothes such as Adidas, or any other clothing brand
then it would be illegal without there permission.
