2. Camera Angles
High Angle
High angle shots make the
model seem inferior to the
viewer so I do not believe
this would work well for my
magazine. Low Angle
Low angle shots make the
model seem superior to the
viewer and so I do not
believe this would work well
with my magazine.
Eye Level
Eye level shots add a personal
touch to images, especially when
paired with direct mode of
address. These types of images
would work well with my
magazine as they would draw in
my target audience.
3. Different Shots
Extreme Long Shot
I do not believe an extreme
long shot would work with
my magazine as they are
impersonal and so my target
audience would not connect
with them.
Very Long Shot Medium Shot
I believe a medium shot
would work well for my
contents page or double
page spread but not my
front cover as I would not
be able to include enough
detail in the image.
4. Different Shots
Mid Shot
Mid Shots range from
around the head of the
person to their chest or
waist. I believe mid shots
would work well on my
magazine cover when
paired with direct mode of
address.
Close Up
Close Ups are focused
on the face, from the
top of the head to the
chin, neck or shoulders.
I believe that close up
shots would work well
on my front cover as
they are personal.
Extreme Close Up
Extreme close ups focus on
one aspect of the model’s
face and so I do not believe
this type of shot would be
suitable for my dominant
image, but maybe for my
sub images.
5. Lighting
High Key
High key images will work
best for my magazine
cover as they smooth over
any perfections leaving a
flawless and professional
look.
Low Key
Low key images will not
work for my magazine
cover as they are
harshly lit and so do
not include a lot of
detail in them.
Backlight Chiaroscuro (High
Contrasts)
