Failure photography

The picture above does not have the right expression or facial features I was looking for and it would have been difficult to position it somewhere on the front cover or the contents page.I didn’t use the photo on the right because I wanted the character, Royal S to portray happiness to attract the audience.

This picture isn’t a very high quality and looks a little blurred so it wouldn’t have looked realistic on my magazines. Also, the pose doesn’t look like a pose that you would see in a real, jazz magazine.

The pose is good in this picture and the angle of it looks good although when I placed it onto the front cover, it did not looked right and looked a bit out of place so I decided to choose another image instead.

I took picture from many different angles to see how effective the photos would turn out like. The image on the right, took from an overhead view, looks squashed when its placed on my magazine template.The image above doesn’t have the right expressions for the picture I wanted to portray.

The pose is fine in this image although the facial expressions suggests mystery and looks too serious so I didn’t choose this image as it doesn’t suit the presentation of Japop.

I was going to use this image if the chosen images did not look good enough on my pages but as they did, I didn’t need this picture. One negative element of this image, though is that the lighting isn’t very good and would possibly look a bit strange on the pages too.

The image on the left is at an effective angle however, I wasn’t too keen on the lighting, therefore it would have looked odd on the magazine pages.The facial expressions in the image above isn’t the look I wanted as it looks too posed and too serious for my audience and the elements of the genre.

These are the images I took for the main storyline. I didn’t use this image as I wanted to show the closeness of the models and this image shows them looking in various directions and it isn’t clear that they are a duet.

When I took this picture, I don’t think the models were ready and that was why they are looking in different directions. It also didn’t look realistic on the front cover or the double page article.

This image is clear and shows a good relationship between the models however, it would have been better if both of them were singing together to show they are promoting a duet.

The positions and facial expressions are not realistic or good enough as they don’t portray the image I wanted. There s no connection between them so this image would not be appropriate for the main article.

I was going to use this image as a back up image if I needed it as I like the facial expressions and eye contact they have with the camera-it is as though they are looking directly at the audience. However, I did not need it as my chosen pictures worked well.

I also like this image because of the eye contact and the happiness that is portrayed through the image. However, I chose not to use this image because it would have looked strange because the heads are cut off so it would have looked out of place.

In this image, I like the positions of the models although the facial expressions do not give the impression that I was looking for.

I took this image too quickly as it shows that they were not ready to pose as it is blurred and wouldn’t be a good picture to use as you wouldn’t expect to find an image like this in an actual magazine.

This is another image I could have used for the contents page as it shows happiness and that they are having fun so the audience could relate to. However, the picture isn’t at the highest quality and one of their heads is cut off so it would look odd.

During my photo shoot, I made sure I took lots of images of the models from different angles and of various poses so I had a variety of images to chose from. There were many pictures that I could have chosen to be on my magazine but I had to test them all out in different positions to see which images looked the best and most realistic. Many of the images taken had good poses but the wrong facial expressions or the other way around. It was hard choosing what images would be best, however I am glad that I had a wide range of options to choose from.
