Planning Task 8 : Photography Planning

I will be taking the pictures myself with others standing in as my models, representing my different social groups by having one male, one female. I will just use my phone for taking the pictures because modern phone cameras are very good for taking photographs.

Magazine 1

For my first front cover, I will take pictures indoors, in a plain-coloured room, potentially white with artificial lighting. It will be a top-down angle with dark clothing to contrast the brightness of the white room with the subject looking towards the camera. Other pictures I will take will include the same picture but with the subject looking past the camera and looking away. I will also try a lower shot, with the subject sitting down, looking away from the camera- creating a semi-candid look.

Magazine 2

For my second cover, I will photograph my male model who is standing in for Martin Garrix in an outdoor setting to ensure the set brief is met with different settings. The model will stand against a tree, having the tree and model in focus, with the rest of the background out of focus to drive the viewers attention to the focal point. The model will look towards the camera, and looking down in another picture. To fit this theme, the lighting will be entirely natural. 

My best image will be used as the front cover image, and use 3 others in my contents page. I will need to take more photographs for my second magazine to use on my website as it will be my more recent issue.
