Choosen Photography

I have choosen this photograph as I took it at One Directions tour who are a well known pop band. Which would fit in with the genre mhy magazine is.

I have choosen this photography because the look on her face is very natural in which I think so is the genre of pop and the colours are very vibrant which would catch the audience attention.

I have chosen this photograph as I think the location is very modern and well known which would represent the genre and it also shows a clear view of the girl band I have chosen to show the pop genre.

I have chosen this photograph as I think the direction is which the girls are looking is very different, as it shows them all looking different ways. The colours in this photograph shows the loudness and boldness of the pop genre.

I have chosen this photograph as I think it applies the gaze theory, with all the girls looking at the camera it applies eye contact with the audience. As all the girls are all smiling it also shows the happiness in the genre.

I have chosen this photograph as I took it at a JLS concert who are a very well known pop band, so this would represent the live side of the genre pop.

 

 I have chosen this photograph as I think the pose they are pulling show craziness which could suggest that the genre can be crazy. Also the colours are vibratant and lous which suggest the genre being loud and happy.

Photography

To obtain my original photography I had to visit many locations such as; Trafalgar Square, The London Eye, Busy public Ares, Southbank and a boarding park.

 

The people that I used to act as the people within my photos where girls from my theatre school that I knew sang and were also interested in the genre of pop. I made sure there look was right by looking at photographs of other well-known bands to base them on. I took over 300 photos which has now given my plenty of photographs to play around with and pick for my final ones.

 

 

Chossen Drafts

These are my chosen drafts for my front cover, contents page and double page spread. I have chosen these drafts because I feel that they are the most effective, as they represent the genre of pop the best. The drafts show all the common conventions of a pop magazine. Now that I have chosen my drafts, I will start my photography . I will take a number of shots to give myself a variety to choose from

 

 

The reasons behind me choosing this as my final draft for my contents page are; I think that it represents the genre more than the other drafts that I done. I think the layout of the magazine fits the genre as it gives space for many images to be shown but also a big enough space for other information to be added, without being to difficult to read. I will make the draft appeal to my target audience through by using language and things that would attract the audience that is seen through other magazines in the pop genre.

 

I have chosen this to be my final draft for my contents page as I feel it attracts the audience with the photographs and also the information the lay out makes it easy to read. The way in which I will address the audience through colours, pictures and text will be one that is suited to the pop genre and there for will make the audience more interested when reading.

The reasons behind me choosing this as my final draft for a double page spread is it apply to the attractiveness of the genre. It follows conventions set by the genre. This includes one main image; article itself along with quotes and separate images to illustrate the article. I have chosen a font and colours that is that is known to the pop genre.

Questionaire
