Once I have captured my photos  
 
Once I have my Photos I am going to get opinion from a photographer, which would be a photography teacher from my college. This is so I get a different view from an expert and so I am able to correct/ improve the photos by taking some better ones. Also this allows me to know which photos I have taken are of good quality and could possible feature in my magazine and which ones are of lower standards and won't be getting used.
 
Also I going to be asking some people who I believe to be in the target range for my audience/ buyer of my magazine. This is going to help me as I would be getting feedback from people of the same target group as those who are most likely to buy my magazine. This will help narrow down the selection of photos that I am going to use for my magazine.

Planning Photo-shoot


Planning Photo-shoot
For the planning of my photo-shoot I have to make sure that I  have various items that is going to allow me to have the best result possible.
What I will need for a successful photo-shoot is:
  • A camera and charger
  • A model
  • Makeup
  • Accessories
  • Change of clothes
  • The right location to suit the effect I'm going for. 
I may decide to conduct this photo shoot in an urban area so that it can reflect on the lifestyle and attitude that my magazine portrays. This allows it to be relatable to the audience as they feel part of the same status as the model on the cover.


I may also decide to conduct the photo-shoot in a studio. This is because the lighting in a studio can be controlled for a much more precise effect and it is in a more enclosed environment meaning outside factors would not have too much of an effect on the photo-shoot.

Conclusion For Feature Page

 
CONLUSION
 
After planning and sketchng out the pages for my magazine i have concluded that the layout of my feature page is going to be spread across a double page. This is so that it is convienient for the readers as every information they will need to acess about the artsit will be on one page and they would not have to flick through pages to acess this information. Also it will be split up into subtitle so that everything is well organised and the readrs will instantly know where to look to attain a certain piece of informatrion about the artist. The feature page is also going to include a couple og images of the artist these images are going to be large so that they stand out and attract the attention of the audience. Ther are going to be engaing poses so that the target audience can feel more connected to the artist when they are viewing it and allows them to feel as though they are on the same level as the artist and they are apart of the story that is being shared with them.

Conclusion For Plan & Sketch Of Magazine Contents Page

 

CONCLUSION
 
After planning and sketching the potential contents page for my music magazine, i have decided that i am going to include in this page a key image of the same artist that is on the front cover of the magazine, alongside images of other artists that are to feature in the magazine. This is so that the readers know what to expect and look forward to when reading my magazine. The word 'contents' is going to be printed largely across the top of the page so that the audience are able to identify quickly what the page is about. It is also going to be done in the same font as the name of the magazine, this is so that the theme of the magazine layout is kept the same through out the pages. In addition to that features such as; the date, web link, things that are going to feature in the magazine and images are going to be included in the magazine. This holds the variety of information that will be added to my magazine. The elements of my contents page are going to overlap in most cases in a way where a piece of text will be brought forward to a picture so that it can be read easily. This means that all the information on this page is not squahed and it is not too overwhelming to the raeders as the informatuion is going to be clear and easy to understand. This makes it user friendly and makes it user friendly.
