Extra photograph research for front cover
As you can see in the front covers I have chosen, the main
focus is the model on the page and nothing else. On the front cover is the
model and minimal words, the page is not crammed with previews of the magazine
it is just very simple and the attention stays on the picture. The facial
expressions are all very strong and endearing but the pose is simple, there is
a big focus on the stance of the arms, in all of the pictures at least one arm
is bent, it brings life to the picture. The clothes are simple but bold. On the
majority of the pages the colours are bland, in the black and white picture the
only colour is the yellow from some of the writing, in the Miley issue the only
real colour is in the blue of her eyes which makes them stand out a lot, the Carly
issue however has lots of colour but I do not think it works and I think it
looks too similar to a children’s magazine with the way she is dressed so I will
not look to this picture for tips, the last one on the bottom right is a very
strong picture; there is a very strong light and it hides some of her features
but I do think it works.
I have chosen to follow a picture like this as I think it
works. It is a mid-shot with her head to her hips in the picture. It is very
plain and simple however with the colour of her eyes it makes the picture have
a big statement. The picture is very well lit with no shadow.
These pictures are all very bold. They have simple make up
yet all their features stand out. The hair is simple and nearly natural. The hair
is around both sides of the face in order to give the face a shapely look. There
is barely any eye make-up apart from a bit of mascara. The lips have been extenuated
with lipstick. The eyebrows are highlighted. The pose is very connected with
the camera and very simple however they look like they have power and
authority.
These are the fort of poses and sort of picture I will be taking;
they will be a mid-shot with the arms in the air. The pictures will be
seductive and provocative but they will be decent and clothed so they will not
be to explicit.
Good work.
