The document considers 5 models for the front cover of a magazine. Model 4 is selected because she has the desired skin tone and hair color/style, which could portray a rebellious R&B artist as desired. Her big eyes would also stand out on the cover to catch readers' attention.

1. MODEL AUDITIONS

2. Here are the models that I considered
for the front cover of my magazine…
Model 1
Model 2
Model 3
Model 4
Model 5

3. Model 1
This model doesn’t have the skin tone which I have in mind for my magazine
front cover and the hair colour may give connotations of a more pop (girly)
artist rather than an R&B artist. This model has braces which may give a
perception that she is young which isn’t what I am aiming for as my artist is to
have had a child which will be discussed in the double page spread.
Model 2
This model has an ideal hair colour for what I am the look that I have in mind;
however, she looks young and I need to make sure that my front cover artist
looks old enough to be able to have had a child. However, her hair length is
good for us to be open minded on what style the model will have on the
day.

4. Model 3
This model has dark features which is the look that I aiming for but doesn’t have
the correct skin tone which is what I am aiming for. This model has a tall height
which isn’t what I am looking for because I want my artist to look like an artist,
not like they are modelling the clothes that I put them in. My inspiration is
Beyoncé and she has a shorter and curvier build.
Model 4
This model has the skin tone which I am looking for (similar to Beyoncé's)
and I like the colour of her hair because there are two colours in it which
gives the audience a sense of rebellion which could link to the genre of
R&B. This model had big eyes which would stand out well on the front cover
of my magazine and catch the audience’s attention.

5. Model 5
This model doesn’t have the hair colour or skin tone which I am looking for in
the model that I use; however, her hair colour could stand out on the
magazine because it isn’t a dull colour and is quite vibrant. She looks very
young which unfortunately isn’t what I am looking for as I need a model
who looks like they have had a child.

6. I chose…
Model 4
This model has the skin tone which I am looking for and I like how she
has two colours in her hair. I feel like she could potentially look like a
R&B artist when I take pictures of her the most out of all the models
and I like how her eyes are big which could catch the audience’s
attention on the front of the magazine.
