Photo Shoots

 
This image was taken with the subject sat on top of a piano,
the background is quite plain so that it didn't clash to much
with the clothing. The clothes I chose are suited to what my
target audience can get ideas for their own style from. One
problem with this shot is the lighting, th image seems a bit dull. 

This shot has more of the piano in view,
this is a good was to demonstrate what 
the magazine is about and what it
will include. 
 

This image is similar to the other however
the subject is in a differnt position, it is
important to change the stance or position
of the person/persons in a shot to get varied
results. I like the position of the person in
this shot, I would like to use something like
in my magazine.

The clothing I chose for these shots is
something that reflects the style of music that
will be in the magazine, it is a mix of different
styles. I did this so that there is something
for everyone.



I changed the outfit and added props so that
I got varied results.

Once I had taken a photo I could change
the look of it by editing it. In this one I
changed it to black and white. This gives it
an older look.


Changing the postition of the subject gives
a different perspective for the reader to
look at, this makes the imagery in a
magazine more interesting.

In this image I took a close up shot of
just the face.

I added a different prop to this image, this reveals to the
reader that the subject is a singer, if they didn't already
know. I also changed the positioning again so that the
whole outfit can be seen.

This image is a bit less serious, it bring a
fun element to the image which will make
the artist relatable to the reader. The lighting
in this shot creates a shaow on the wall, I
like this effect I think it makes the image
different to every other shot.



I liked this image a lot. therefore I wanted to
see what it would look like in black and white.
 

 

This image is a close up shot. It includes a few props,
this makes it more interesting to look at. I like the perspective
in this shot, it is different to most images because the top
of the head is cut off. Sometimes this might not look very
good, however in this shot I think it works.


In this photo I placed a green gel filter over the red head
lamp whic created a green shadow behind the subject. I
like this effect because it makes the image more
interesting to look at.

This image uses the rule of thirds,
I like this effect because it creates
something different to a lot of
other shots where the person in
the shot is in the centre.

In this image I have added a prop which not only makes the
photo more interesting, it also reflects what the magazine is
about. 


This shot includes two people, I wanted to vary the amount
of people in each shot so that I had different results to choose
from. I also changed this image to black and white. I like this
shot because it looks quite natural, unlike some photos which
look posed. I think natural looking shots work much better
because it catches the artist/band doing what they love.


This shot has four people in it, it would work as a photo
for a boy band. The people in this shot are all looking in
a different direction which suggests that they are all
thinking of something different, this in turn demonstrated
that they all have their own personalities.  

This is a medium close up shot which contains just the head
and shoulders. The neck of a guitar is visable which
reflects the artist in the shot.

This is a very natural shot which I like because it catches
the chemistry within the band. It makes them believable
to the target audience. This image would make them more
inclined to buy the magazine.

This shot is quite simple because it is on a plain background,
however it is not boring because the way the lighting is
creats two shadows behind the person in the shot. Also
I have used props to make it more interesting.

This is a similar shot, however it is in black and white and the
subjects head is turned to the side which gives a different
result to the previous image,
In this image a changed the contrast and the saturtation.
This makes it look a bit like a paintion or a cartoon image.
I like this effect because it is interesting to look at.
In this shot i used a green gel filter over on lamp and a blue
one over the other. This creates an interesting effect. I
also changed the angle of the camera to create a different
result.
This is quite a simple shot, it is in black
and white and the artist is shot head on.

  1. I did a few photoshoots in order to get the shots I wanted for my magazine. In the photos I took I tried to get a lot of different results so I had plenty to choose from. In the diffenent shots I varied the type of lighting, the props, the clothing, what was or wasn't in the background and the people in the shots. By doing this I think I achieved varied and interesting results.
