Evaluation of audience feedback

What could be improved?

• Which elements of the magazine does the audience like?

• How are particular social groups represented- fans of particular music, age groups, defined by social class /gender / ethnicity..? Are these representations positive, negative, mixed?

• Who are the audience? Are they the group that you initially targeted?

Music magazine journey; pictures

This image is going to be used for my front page. This is a mid-shot of my model Ibrahim, with him looking directly at the camera to catch the eyes of my your audience. I chose this because its plain and simple but says a lot and is something I can play round with in Photoshop to make it look more professional.

This image I took in the studio will be used in my double page spread as 1 of my main images. This body shot will be used to show of his body language and his facial expression. Him sitting down looking directly at the camera shows his dedication to his music as he also connects with his fans through this image. 

This image will be used for my contents page. The topless image of my model particularly appeals to my younger female audience as this is what they may find attractive and this may cause them to read more about my magazine. 

I have chosen these as my main images because I felt they were appropriate for my genre and met the needs of my magazine

Magazine image ideas

These images are ideas i wanted my model to mimic, as he was male i got these images of the internet of male celebrities i wanted my model to portray in their poses

Photography set-up/ lighting in the studio

I learnt a lot using the photography studio, in terms of where everything should be positioned, lighting, and background and mostly how to use the camera. I enjoyed using the poly-reflector boards and changing the back drop colour from black to white.
