Best selection for the Contents Page of my Music Magazine

Here are the three shots which I think are most suitable for the contents page of my magazine (These shots were taken as landscape and therefore, I will have to rotate my selected image before using the shot for my magazine. Also, I will add more bricks to the background for it to fit the contents):
Although I like this shot, this image has too much free space to the left of my actor. Therefore, I will not be using this in my music magazine.

Again, I like this picture. However, I prefer the gesture my actor has in the next picture and due to that, this picture will not be used in my magazine.

This is the picture that I will be using for my contents page. This is due to the fact that I like the gesture my actor has and I also believe that the posture in this picture if good.

Best selection for Front cover of my Music Magazine

Here are all of the shots which I believe to be most suitable for the front cover of my music magazine. I will now analyse them to decide which one will be used for my front cover:


I believe this shot is at too far of a distance to be used as my front cover, meaning that it would not stand out very well. Therefore, I will not be using this shot for my music magazine.

I also believe that I have taken this shot at too far of a distance which is why I am not using it as my magazine cover.

Again, this shot is at a far distance and I have decided to not use this for my magazine cover.

This shot is at a more suitable distance, however, I do not like the posture of my actor in this photograph.
I really like the angle and lighting on this image but I would not use this as my cover due to the fact that I will not be able to place text easily around it and because of this, I will not be using the image for my cover page. 
This is the image which I will be using for the cover of my music magazine. I really like the angle of this shot and also the position my actor is stood in. I believe that the shot conveys that the genre of my magazine is pop music through the mise en scene of this picture.

Ideology Homework

The inbetweeners is a comedy series which is centred around four sixth formers. The ideology of this series is that life as a teenager is hard, shown through the main characters commonly facing struggles.

The ideology of the movie Finding Nemo is that family is important. This is due to the fact that at the beginning of the film, Nemo does not get along well with his father but after going missing and being reacquainted, they both appreciate eachother.

Captain America:The Winter Soilder is about the Avenger, Captain America, battling against his former bosses (SHIELD). He discovers that his usual enemies (HYDRA) have always been a part of SHIELD. The ideology of this movie is that there is no such things as a "good person" or a "bad person".

Location Hunting-15/01/16

Today I went location hunting to try and find an outdoor background for my music magazine shots. I found an entry in the same road as my school. I will be using this for my next shots due to the fact that the natural lighting will improve my photographs more than if I were to take these shots indoors. I will also be using this entry as my location due to the fact that if I chose to include the bricks in my music magazine, it would suit the style of the pop genre. Also, the background could also be easily removed if I chose to not include the bricks of the entry.

Taking shots in the hall-14/01/16

Today, I took shots in the school hall as stated in my blog of time management. However, I was not satisfied with the quality of these photographs as the lighting wasn't very good. I realised that natural lighting would be a lot more suitable for my shots and therefore, tomorrow, I will look for a more suitable location for my shots.

Time management for my music magazine

I have began organising what days I will take my photographs. On Thursday 14th January, I will take my photographs in the hall. This is due to the fact that me and my actor are both free for three hours that day and also because I have permission from the caretaker to be able to have access the hall on this day. Another reason why I will be taking these on this date is to allow for another day during the following week for me to take further shots if required. I would like to have my pictures uploaded on my blog by Friday 22nd January.
