Draft magazine cover

My draft for my magazine front cover. 

 

I want to change the models positioning slightly and make him take up a bit more of the magazine

.

I also need to find out a title for my magazine and also add in text that would make it more eye catching to my target audience

Organisation of time and date.

I have decided that I would like to take my images on Thursday 8th December 2016. Where I will have from 9.35am till 2pm to take my images. This will mean that I will be able to get a range of images that will overall allow me to get different ranges of shots and decide which is best.

My draft pictures for music magazine.

For my magazine I have decided to use a male character with a friendly yet more attitude look towards my target audience. To achieve this I have decided to do a close up image as my medium close up images give a better effect than than the other.

However, I would like to change his facial expression and make him look like he has more of an attitude look.

I think I would like him to wear some glasses as use them as a prop for placing of his hands as crossing his arms doesn't give the exact image I am looking for.

I am going to be taking my pictures in the school 'Dance and Drama' studio as I can affect the lighting as to how I want it. I can also have a range of props if I decide to change what I want my image to look like.

Image for my music magazine.

For my music magazine front cover I will focus on taking a medium close up shot of my actor. I want him to have a serious/ attitude expression and show that he is cool and part of 'the group' style; whilst keeping a stylish and modern look throughout his outfit and picture.

I have looked at different expressions for my magazine and I would like to create, this would give a natural friendly look. However, I also want my model to portray a more serious with attitude look. Therefore, I would like to do two completely different images for the pages.

Music magazine plan

The audience of my magazine will focus on an older generation of the ages of around 20-45, whilst focusing on more modern music or 'top of the charts' with celebrities like: Beyonce, JZ and Justin Bieber being my style model for my model and the positions I would like to portray. I will be focusing on a male audience as my magazine will be more male dominated however still suit the audience of women. Using a male model in order to show this.
