My Images from photoshoot

For my music magazine i purposely took more images than when i had my school magazine photoshoot becuase i learnt that having a variety of poses and shots results in a better final image; this time i could choose the images i wanted to use from the same model ( i took about 6/7 shots for each model; i uploaded the ones that i will be using and some of the ones i wont.

Photoshoot Table

Here is my table for my photoshoot, i have stated times, what sort of shot and camera angles i wanted, model names, date, what props i used for the model, lighting

Image Logo for magazine

I want to have a image, maybe a cartoon image of a pair of headphones, a turntable or syntheziser lights.

I will make he logo on photoshop to ensure that u get a professional and stylish look.
I want something to attract and appeal to my music audience (dance culture). The logo will act as a trademark of the magazine institution, and will attract the magazines target audience.

Plan for Photoshoot

I have booked my photoshoot for tuesday, 8th of December. I will have to take some of my freinds out of dinner time in order to take the photos and get the models i want for the magazine.

I have booked my photoshoot for tuesday, 8th of December. I will have to take some of my freinds out of dinner time in order to take the photos and get the models i want for the magazine.

In my magazine i want the same house style and themes to run through the magazine.
I want the same mast head themes to run from the Front page to the Contents page.

Other effects i could consider...

Photoshoot

I was going to start organising a photoshoot, however, i found out i could be going to a professional theatre to take my pictures. I will start asking my models what kind of clothes they could wear and what props they have. Also, i specifically asked for bright clothes to attract the Dance culture, also i asked fot clothes that would be relevant to the genre and housestyle of the magazine (bright colours).

This is the image before and after, i added rain and made the woman black/white to make the umbrella stand out. The vibrant orange gives a fun and energetic sense to the image.

I might do something similar to this for the main image of the front cover, however when i edit and apply effects to the image i will take more time and be sure to get a professional looking image to appeal to my target audience. The audiences i want to appeal to with a similar image to this are the hedonists and aspirers, also i want to target audiences that are linked with the Dance Music culture.

This is a slide showing what sort of effects i could add to the front cover image, when i take my photos this week some time.

What i could do for the double page article image

this was the final image i got after i edited it and i added the energy blasts. I could have made it better by following a online tutorial, however i wanted to see what i could achieve on my own. For my double page article image i could do something like this, but maybe have the background a bit more colourful.

Double page article Image Experiments Screenshots

This was a image of me that i tool today, i though that i should start experimenting with different effects on photoshop so my images on the magazine are outstanding and look professionaly edited.

Moreover, this is what io might do for my double page article image; take a medium shot of a boy and ask the model to pose with his hands open and up high so i can add these amazing effects afterwards.

Flatplan , more detailed with new ideas

Here is my new ideas for my double page article. In want the articles to show a interview with a famous star.












In the articles, i will ask questions and have answers from the star.
Also the image idea is to have a boy standing and i can edit the image in photoshop and add sparks, beams or energy blasts.

Morover, above the article text i want the mastheads to have the titles, 'Dinaka Guetta interview' because my model's name is Dinaka. He also has a blog, www.flash-creator.blogspot.com



Here also is my new front cover, it is similar to the old one because i still havent thought of the text to put in, i will type up and think of new text ideas for the front cover in the next few days.

What is more, is the front cover's image hopefull will be of a girl (possible models could be emma, paige or natalie), i want the model to hold a umbrella and then in photoshop i can cut the image out and add it to a rainy background that i will make and then change the colours of the umbrella; to reds, blues, greens, yellows etc, to show the dance lifestyle (fun and energetic).



The new contents page has the text i want, and the page 3-4 has the text about the 'Dinaka Guetta interview' (i will have the interview on the double page article). Also i have decided only to have 3 image for the contents because i can choose the best shots i take of different models and only have 3 that are edited; choose the best ones.



The image of the 'contents' on lined paper was my first ideas of the contents page, as you can see there is a alot of scribbiling because thinking is a messy process! :D




This is all the main ideas for the
magazine, i will take my photos hopefully next week and then upload them and start the editing. I will show all the editing and the screenshots of the construction of the magazine. In each post i will state what it is that i was trying to achieve (e.g the look, the colours etc) also i will show how i changed the look of the images and why.

I will be editing my photos in Photoshop and then putting them into my magazine; the magazine will be produced on Adobe Indesign.
