Cover 1 - Contact sheet - Winter

Cover 1 - Winter

This image was taken on landscape so I would have to crop it to fit my magazine. The lighting on the images where quite dark so I did a re-shoot. I couldn’t have a high shutter speed because I had a low level of light in the room.

She has a nice smile that would suit my front cover and it only shows the upper body. The lighting is not good because in most of these photo’s from the shoot I didn’t use flash but for my second shoot I will use flash so I can get a nice level of light.

Cover 1 - Winter

For this image a took it portrait so I didn’t have to do as much cropping. She is not smiling that much so it would be the best for my magazine as for mine it would be better to have a friendly smile as it’s teenage lifestyle.

The lighting is not good because in most of these photo’s from the shoot I didn’t use flash but for my second shoot I will use flash so I can get a nice level of light.

Cover 1 - Winter

This image was take in portrait and she is positioned in the centre of the image, there is a shadow on the left but that could be cropped out. The brightness makes all of the colours dark which is not good as it doesn’t show much detail.


Cover 1 - Winter

This image has dark colours but I like her pose because she has her hands in her pockets and is using direct address. This was taken at a medium close up to get her upper body in instead of a full body shot.


Cover 1 - Winter

This image is quite blurry because I was not using a tripod for this shot. But I do like her smile as it’s friendly. The space above her head could be cropped out when using photoshop.


Cover 2 - Contact sheet - Music

Cover 2 - Music

This image is blurry and has too much room above the head but that can be cropped out. He is positioned in the middle of the image and has a shadow by his left which could also be cropped out. The image was taken at a medium close up to get his upper body in the image.


Cover 2 - Music

This image has less negative space above the head but still enough to be cropped out, he is in the middle of the image and has a friendly smile to be on a magazine front cover.


Cover 2 - Music

This image uses a medium close up to get his body in the image with out his legs. He is slightly further away than the rest of the images.


Cover 2 - Music

For this image the framing is bad because he is on the left and you can see the roof of in the image. I don’t like this image it was taken with him


Cover 2 - Music

This image has a lot of negative space and also has bad framing as his arm is cut off over the left.


Cover 3 - Contact sheet – Hat’s

Cover 3 - Hat’s

For this image I used flash and the lighting was a lot better. The framing of the image is nice because he is in the middle of the image, the negative space above his head can be cropped out in photoshop.

Cover 3 - Hat’s

For this image the lighting is nice because I used flash so it puts a nice white light on the image so it is clearer and much more can be seen.

The framing is good as he is in the middle of the image. The colours are vibrant because of the lighting as you can see the blues on the hat.

Cover 3 - Hat’s

For this image I used flash and it bring the colours out in the image.

I also did a close up to try new things out and get a variety of image to choose from for my final one.

Cover 3 - Hat’s

I like the framing of this image because he is in the middle of the image. It has a shadow in the left of the image. It is a medium close up because it shows his whole body leaving his legs out.


Cover 3 - Hat’s

This image is a bit blurry and the framing is a bit off as he is too far to the left. The colours are quite dark because of the brightness and there is not that much negative space around the top of the image.


Cover 4 - Contact sheet – Cloth’s

Cover 4 - Cloth’s

This image has bad framing because you can see past the wall on the right but it would have to be cropped out anyway because of the shadow on the left and the amount of negative space above her head.


Cover 4 - Cloth’s

This image has the wall cut off at the side so would have to be cropped this is because I wanted to try different camera shots for example taking the picture further away than usual.


Cover 4 - Cloth’s

This image has a lot of negative space so would have to be cropped down. It was taken at a medium close up to show detail and facial expression.


Cover 4 - Cloth’s

I like this image because of her smile it suits a teenage lifestyle magazine. It was taken at a close up


Cover 4 - Cloth’s

This image is nice because of her smile/pose as she has a friendly smile. The image is a close up to show detail. The colours are quite dark as the flash was off and the lighting is dark


Chosen image - Winter

I chose this image because out of this shoot it has the best lighting, it still isnt very good but it shows some colours well. The framing is good because she is positioned in the middle of the image.

The space above her head would have to be cropped out along with the shadow on the left and be put on to a blank background.

Chosen image - Music

I chose this as my final image for music as I like the framing, he is in the centre of the image but has a shadow on the left so he would have to be cropped out of the image as it looks un-professional.

He also has a friendly smile that would suit the front of my magazine cover

Chosen image – Hat’s

I chose this image because of the lighting, I used flash in this image so it has vibrant colours and you can see the detail. It did leave a shadow around him. He is a bit too far to the left but once he is cropped out it would not matter.

Chosen image – Cloth’s

I chose this image mainly because she has a friendly smile that would fit my front cover as it’s a teenage lifestyle magazine. The lighting is not that good because I didn’t use flash.

The shadow to her left would have to be cropped out leaving her to be put onto a blank background.
