Shot This would be a good photo to use for the
cover of my magazine because it would give
the impression that the magazine will be
enjoyable to read because the model in the
photo looks happy. The model looks
carefree so this would illustrate that the
magazine isn’t about serious topics but
more pleasant topics.

Shot
I like this shot because it has a
dramatic and effective look.
Because the model is looking up, it
gives her this sense of innocence
but the way her body is positioned
shows a carefree manner.
The light gives the image a

4. Long This would be a good image to use for the
Shot cover of my magazine. It could be used for
any genre of music and all I would have to
do is change what the model is wearing. I
like the carefree look of the model but I also
like the way the pose if confident and fierce.
This would also be good for a double page
spread because it shows the person clearly
and with the use of a prop, the model could
portray an artist which would draw a readers
attention.
I would change the background to a
medium tones colour so it’s not too dark
nor too bright. I would like to change the
chair if I could so it would be a different,
bold colour that would contrast with the
model so the model could stand out. I
would change what the model is wearing
also so it would fit the genre of music that
my magazine is about.

Close up a contents page as the model can be

would make the reader interested in
finding out the story behind the picture.
It would also be good for a front cover
as it is eye catching and fun looking.
What I would change about the
image is the position of the hands
so that it was in the corner of the
picture so it looked like the hands
were framing the picture as there
wasn’t any space around it. I would
also change the lighting so the

6. Medium I like this image because it is an unusual
Shot shot. The hand reaching forward is eyes
catching and it give the illusion that the
model is reaching for the reader. Also, the
model looks like they titled to one side which
would draw more attention as this isn’t a
common angle to use for a magazine. If I
used an image like this, it would capture
peoples attention because it would be
something they would not be used to seeing
and this would interest them to look at the
rest of the magazine.
The things I would change about this
image is the clothes the model is
wearing because I would want her to
wear something that would reflect the
uniqueness of the magazine. If I wanted
the model to wear dark clothes then I
