The document outlines plans for a photo shoot for a table of contents page, including four models, various camera angles and distances, indoor and outdoor locations, lighting techniques, costumes and props, intended connotations and denotations, and contingency plans in case of absences or bad weather. Gilles Geary will be shot alone in the London Underground to portray a youthful rebel, while Tommy, Jack, and Tina will be shot individually and together against plain backgrounds to depict teenagers and friends in a casual, laidback style.

1. Planning the TOC photo shoot
Agency Name Shutter Speed Productions
Models Gilles Geary, Tommy Hoare, Jack Burton, Tina
Delic
Camera height/angle/distance Various angles, heights and distances shall be
used.
Main ones shall be:
Low Angle, Low height and 2m distance for
Gilles’s shots, to suggest the connotation that he
is superior to the reader of the magazine.
Close Up shot, between low angle and eye level
height, 15m-20m distance, capturing Gilles in the
frame as well as an underground sign, which is a
symbol of London
Mid Shot and close ups (Two shot), eye level
height and 2m distance for Tommy and Jack’s
shots to suggest more of a connection with the
reader.
Close ups and mid shots, eye level height, 1m-3m
distance for shots of Tina
Location London Underground station for Gilles’s shots
Rough Brick Wall for some of Tina’s shots
Graffiti Wall for Tina
White wall (or single colour) for shots of Tommy
and Jack
Lighting The use of lighting will alternate using all
available light and using a flash light. This will
allow a more varied selection of images that I can
use for my table of contents page, as different
levels and directions of lighting can drastically
change the way an image looks and feels.
Mise-en-scene (incl. props, costume) Gilles: Aviator sunglasses
Black Coat
Red Hoodie
Tommy & Jack: Laidback, leisure clothes
Some clothing to do with music

2. Tina: Leather Jacket
Sunglasses (Ray-ban)
Attempted connotation Gilles: Location of London Underground so that
the photos of the TOC relate back to the article.
Low angles to show his higher status. More
leisurewear-like clothing to show that he is
showing his true self in the article
Tommy & Jack: Group shot to show that they are
in the same band. Arms around each other to
show their friendship. Medium shot to show
their music-themed t-shirts which will show their
passion for music.
Tina: Ray-ban sunglasses to show there is
mystery to her. Leather jacket is a common piece
of clothing in the rock genre, therefore
addressing the target audience.
Planned denotation Gilles: Youthful rebel in an empty London
underground station
Tina: Teenager leaning back on a brick wall
Tommy & Jack: Two young friends, with arms
around them and hand gestures
Contingency (in case of model absence/weather) In the case of bad weather, the photo shoot will
be contained indoors within the school and
conducted on the 4th floor corridor, and other
places to be confirmed. However, a further
photo shoot should be planned during the
February half term in order to add images that
look more different to each other to create a
more creative and varied table of contents page.
If Tommy Hoare and Jack Burton are both
unavailable, Eros Vlahos will be used as a model.
Additionally, if one model or more is/are absent,
an alternative day during the half term will be
used for the absent model or models’ shots.
Alternate angle Group shots
Thinking points: Rule of thirds, White background shot
