Test Shots

This is my two shot which is also a medium close up. I will consider

using a two shot on my product because the test shot working quite well.

It is a successful shot as it features more than one person, this gives the audience

more to look at. The framing of the shot alos works well as there is enough

room for an article either side of the image for my double page spread.

This is a long shot, although it has space for feature stories either side

and a header and a footer, it is perhaps too spacious; this is becsause the

person doesn't dominate the frame like they should do.

Therefore I will not be using a long shot for my product.

This is the group image, this works well in music magazines on

all front cover, contents page and double page spread, it is also the

perfect shot if there is a band with multiple people.

I will consider using a group image in my magazine if I use a band

or group for my artists.

This is a medium shot, this is a successful shot because the framing

involves plenty of room for feature stories and masthead etc.

I will consider using this shot n my final product as the image was a

success this time around.

This is a medium close up, this is a successful shot type

and is conventional for magazine covers, the shot has a lot

of room for feature stories and the masthead as well as showing

a clear shot of the artist. I will consider using this shot for my final

product as it will gain me marks for following traditional conventions.

This is a medium long/pose shot, this is probably the least

successful shot type of all of my test shots, this means I will

more than likely use this shot when creating my final product.

However, it will be considered for my double page spread.

Costume Ideas

 

These three costume are conventional to the hip-hip/rap genre and I will consider each one when creating my magazine. the artist on the front cover of my music magazine 'LEGACY' will more than likely be wearing on of these costume ideas; if not something very simalar. When putting these costume ideas together a researched a few artists of the hip-hop genre to see what types of clothing they wear. Some of the artists are 50 Cent, Eminem, Busta Rhymes, Rick Ross and The Notorious B.I.G. These are all successful artists withing the genre, therefore when picking out a costume for the artist in my magazine I will need to take into consideration what these successful aritsts wear.

Colour Schemes

 

'VIBE' magazine and 'XXL' are the existing magazines I am following the conventions of due to involving similar artists and using the same genre. This is why I am using their most used colour scheme, this is because the colours red, white and black are easily noticable when used with each other and also connote the same things as the genre. For example danger, passion, aggression and elegance.
