1. My Chosen Front Cover Picture

2. Why did I choose this picture?
I chose this image because I feel like it suits the magazine I
am creating. In the image I have a student who is smiling,
looking at the camera with some parts of the school
behind her. It is a good image because it is easy to tell that
she is a sixth former as she is wearing her own clothes and
there is good lighting to the image. I like the how the
backdrop would look like once I have cropped the image to
magazine size. The greenery behind the model gives the
impression that the photograph was one of high quality as
the background blurred once the model was in focus. The
fact that it blurred out was another factor in deciding to
choose the image as it gives me a nice canvas to work on
once I start putting the front cover together. I can place
white text over the green leaves without it getting lost or
not being read clearly. Even though I didn't have a shot like
this on my shot list, I think it was the best to have her not
holding any books or have any props as it would take out
the simplicity from the image and make it appear less
formal which is not what I wanted. If I was to improve one
thing about this image it would be to have her standing
further away to have more of her in shot.

3. My Chosen Content Page
Picture
Why did I choose this as my contents page
image?
I chose this pictures as I liked how it had both
models completely in shot. I was looking to
take one main image for my contents page that
was landscape and I felt like this one was the
best compared to the others. Both models
seem happy and are having a good time. It is a
good image as it represents school and
learning which is good as my magazine is a
college one and therefore it links to my brief.
The fact that the front cover model has been
used again links the image to the front cover as
well as the green at the top which links to the
green in the magazine cover’s background.
Overall I like the look of the image and felt that
it was suitable and a welcoming image.
