Location
Time
Date
Why?
I will take the picture for my front
cover and DPS in my house in Epsom
on the 24th October, as it is easily
accessible and has natural and
artificial lightning to experiment with.
The contents page will most likely
feature a picture of me attached to the
editors notes section of the magazine. I
will take this picture at home as it
gives me freedom to experiment with
time and lighting
For the other pictures I would like for my
contents page, I will need to take them at school
as there is a wide range of people at school and
everyone will be there at the same time. I will
aim to take the photos on the 26th October after
school at about 3:05pm

Why?
Front Cover- main image/dps image
For the front cover of my music
magazine ‘Maestro Magazine,’ I would
like to take a low angled medium close
up picture of myself to feature as the
main image. To take the picture I will
use my IPhone 6, which uses an 8
megapixel back camera and my gorilla
tripod, which I can attach to most
surfaces. I will most likely use natural
lighting for my front cover, to bring
out the colours and facial features, this
will also reduce noise distortion. For
the front cover I will use myself as a
subject as I can pose to how I want to
and I do not require to make any
arrangments with other people. In the
medium close up, I will most likely be
holding an acoustic guitar to make me
look more like a singer songwriter. I
am going to wear a basic white t-shirt
and jeans to focus the audiences
Contents Page- Editors notes
As this shot is for the editors notes
section of my magazine, the shot will
be a close up of myself, the editor of
the magazine. I will not require any
props for this image, however I will
require my IPhone 6 and Gorilla Pod to
take the photo as it gives me the
option to use the front facing camera if
neccesary. I will most likely use
natural lighting to give true colour,
reduce noise reduction and to bring
out facial features. The costume for
this picture in the magazine will be
different to the main image, to portray
myself as two different characters. I
may where a baseball cap and a
jumper to emphasise the different that
I am playing two different characters.
General
The picture will be of my friend Sean Wayne and
I will most likely take a landscape close up as
this will fit in the appropriate part of my
contents page. As he will be portraying a singer
songwriter he does not need any specific
clothing and I will most likely use artificial
lighting in the media corridor. To take the
picture I will use my IPhone 6’s 8 megapixel rear
camera, as the quality is good and it as an auto
exposure feature. Sean has the facial features of
a singer songwriter and so would be ideal to
feature on my contents page.
