I think this image is suitable as it is clear and
crisp, it looks professional. I used selective
focus to blur the back ground and draw your
eyes towards the model. I looked at millum
and fergison to work out facial expression I
decided on practical for the cover as I looked
at other film magazines, all the covers have
models with serious faces on so it sticks to
the conventions of a film magazine. It also
sticks to the conventions of reginal magazine
as the cover has a unrecognisable person on
the cover she is not a celebrity like on the
cover of spark and vibe.
This image wouldn’t be suitable as
its too blurry I used selective focus
however, I don’t like how my other
male model in focus is not looking
at the camera it looks all most
pointless to use selective focus in
this picture as the audience don’t
have much to look at and take
from it.
This is an over the shoulder
shot, I like this image as it
shows our models interacting
like it was taken out of a film
and it looks interesting and
realistic not like its being
forced. I chose over the
shoulder so it looks like our
models are having a
conversation and how the male
is taller it looks better to be
over his shoulder, almost as if
he is looking over her to protect
her and not in an intimidation
way.
I like this image and I think its
suitable as it shows our model
interacting with the background, she
isn’t looking at the camera and is
walking along a path. I don’t think
her smile looks forced so I like this.
The lighting is good we can see her
face clearly, I asked her to be happy
and smile this facial expression is
carefree. I think the angle is creative,
looking down on her but in a good
way as if something is watching over
her I can say this as the lighting is
bright and has no evil connotations.
This is image is not
suitable as its all
unforced, There are
bottles in the way of
the camera and not for
any reason. The whole
shot looks messy. I
wouldn’t use this in my
magazine or website as
it doesn’t look
professional.
I think this shot would
work in my magazine as it
looks creative and quirky
something you would find
in a independent film,
unlike Hollywood films
which are all action shots,
the scenery is doing all
the talking the bright sun
light is connoting
positivity. I took this
photo in Winter gardens
park which is exclusive to
this region so the location
is relating to the features
of a regional magazine, let
the scenery or location
sell the magazine.
I took this picture at a
metro station when
the metro was pulling
in, there is movement
in this picture and
looks like real life
something is
happening. I choose
for my model not to
look at the camera as
this would take the
natural look away from
the scene. I think this
image would work as
the lighting is clear,
nothing is out of place,
blurry or messy.
I don’t like this picture as it is not on
the right angle and is all too dark, I
could use it as a cover but unlike slide
number one this one is too dark, it
looks lifeless and doesn’t have much
to take from it. I couldn’t use it as a
sub image as its not on the right
angle or size.
