Shot 1
Location: College Art GalleryThis shot will be my cover photo. The image will be a medium close up of a male model, my friend Charlie who plays the character of KiD ViGOROUS in my magazine, facing the camera head on with an aggressive expression. The model will have their hands held in front of their face, in a praying motion. The image will follow the rule of thirds and the focus point will be the models eyes. The model could potentially be wearing a microphone around their neck.
Shot 2
Location: Power Generator in Car ParkThis shot will be for the full page image in my double page spread. The image will be a long shot, full body low-angle shot. The model, Charlie, will be stood, hands in pockets making eye contact with the camera. Charlie will be wearing a coat, rucksack, jeans and trainers, an urban image being created. The power generator is surrounded by metal railings and warning signs making it a perfect urban scene, personifying the dangerous lifestyle of a rapper.
Shot 3
Location: Walkway/Wall
This shot will be for my contents page. The model will once again be Charlie. The image will be a medium close up Charlie looking in to the distance, wearing a street style outfit once again. The wall and path behind him provide a street image, with graffiti on the walls and litter on the floor, representing an earthy look at Britain and British rap.
Shot 4
Location: Graffiti-covered Wall
This shot will be used on my contents page. The shot will be a medium long shot of the model Ed, stood in front of a graffiti-covered wall, once again representing Britain, looking away from the camera with his arms folded, giving an effortless, casual look. He will be wearing a hoodie zipped up and a rucksack again, demonstrating the street culture of British hip hop.
Shot 5
Location: Storage Container in Car Park
This shot will be used on my contents page. The shot will be a medium long shot of the model, Jamal, stood in from of a storage container. The storage container gives a plain background as it is an off-white colour but it also gives an urban feel with the uses of metal, warning stickers and locks. Jamal will be stood hands in pockets, with his large jacket wide open, looking in to the distance. The long jacket and open stance are a trait of his character, producer Jamz, suggesting he has a lot to offer and is open to proposals, as a producer would be.
When I put my images into my product, I will be conscious to use the rule of thirds, positioning images accurately spaced/positioned around my pages. I did take multiple pictures of each of the shots, allowing me to choose the best shot for my product, in terms of lighting, model's appearance and a few other aspects, such as allowing for headroom on my front cover image to place a masthead.
