2. This was an option for the magazine
cover for film and TV as the lighting is
high key and the model is giving direct
address. However, I do not believe it is
clear that the main subject in this cover
in the ‘Wolverine’ poster in the
background and via the mise en scene
the magazine genre is unclear then the
cover has not served it purpose.
3. This was also an option for the
magazine cover for film and TV as the
lighting again is high key, the model is
giving direct address and is posing with
her thumb up which is a good look as it
gives an positive aura about the
magazine which is very appealing.
However, again I do not believe the
main subject is clear and even though
the lighting is good, the background
around the poster is quite blurry and
does not look very good.
4. Much like the last two photos, the
lighting for this image is high key and
the models facial expression gives off a
really happy vibe, which is important as
it is a positive magazine and I want this
to be represented via the cover. At this
point, I realised in the background of
this image there is another subject, this
looks very unprofessional therefore I
decided to not select any of the past 3
photos for my magazine cover.
5. This was also an option for the
magazine cover for film and TV as the
lighting again is high key, the model is
giving direct address and is posing with
her thumb up which is a good look as it
gives an positive aura about the
magazine which is very appealing.
However, again I do not believe the
main subject is clear and even though
the lighting is good, the background
around the poster is quite blurry and
does not look very good.
6. The most appealing thing about this
photo in my opinion is the quality of it,
immediately it is clear that the quality
looks very professional, as does the
lighting, however, at this point I
decided that my model sitting down
and the photo form this angle in
general looks awkward and the genre is
not clear enough, therefore I asked my
model retake the photos on another
day.
7. I decided to go with this photo for my
film and TV magazine cover for a few
reasons, firstly, I believe with the model
stood up and the camera at a lower
angle, it is much clearer that the main
subject for the image is the ‘Wolverine’
poster. This is also made clear via the
fact that the models attire in the shot is
much more plain, which I believe is a
positive and it takes the attention away
from her and to the bright red poster.
The model is also giving direct address
and looks very happy which are both
conventions of a magazine cover.
