Photoshoot images

Sophie:


I like this image of Sophie as her facial expression seems to be fun and from my research into pop music magazines many of the artists pull faces that appear to be fun and as my cover line to go with this image is 'I fell over on stage' so I thought that by Sophie doing a surprised face it would be most appropriate. As most cover line images are Medium close ups or close ups I decided to take a medium close up of Sophie.

I then made Sophie stay doing the exact same facial expression which I found suitable for the cover line but took a close up this time. Although you can't see what Sophie is wearing this image shows facial expression a lot better then my other image.  I also like this image because it doesn't show much background whereas the other image does. I like this effect I used when taking the photo and this is the image I will use for my front cover coverline image. I also made Sophie look directly into the camera as from research of pop magazines artist commonly looked into the camera to make the reader feel more involved. I have represented  Sophie in a stereotypical way to link to a mainstream mass audience.  This image is posed for.


Alejandro:
Due to being at a soccer six event when I took this photo it was hard to get more than one image however I did get a photo of Alejandro to use for my coverline image on my magazine. This is a close up image of Alejandro to clearly show his facial expression. I took this at a soccer six event which was one of my location ideas. Alejandro is looking directly into the camera and he is an upcoming artist so it is going to be good to use him on my magazine. This is a posed image of Alejandro.

Craig
I took Craigs image against a light background as many pop music images are taken against one. I also took this image of Craig as a medium long shot to show facial expression. Here Craig is looking directly into the camera and from looking at the poster images this is common. I will use this as my poster image as from my research of photo shoots and analysis of magazines this image seems suitable.
I also took this image of Craig which is a medium shot showing facial expression and body language. However I found that this image didn't appear as fun as the other image I took of Craig. It is a posed image and he is smiling which is common in teenage pop magazines.



Lauren
Here are a range of images I took of Lauren all against a light coloured background. I used my photo shoot research to help with facial expression. I took these to use as my poster images.  The two photos of Lauren holding the necklace are like the image of Katy Perry which I found when researching photo shoots. The second image connotes youth and fun however I am going to use the first image as this also connotes fun and appears ideal for my poster image and from research many celebs use this facial expression. All these images are posed for and facial expression and body language are clear to see.

I also took these 2 images to choose from for my coverline image and decided to go with the second image. The second image is a mid close up which from my analysis of two front covers is more likely to be used as for coverlines than a medium shot as it clearly shows facial expression. In these images Lauren is looking directly into the camera as I found this frequent in pop music magazines and also it makes her engage with the reader.

James


Here are three images I took of James. My photo shoot research influenced these images as the first one is similar to the image of Liam Payne. The third image was influenced by Conor Maynard however for the poster image I have chosen to use the second image as it is a mixture of both Conor Maynard and Liam Payne. The first image is a medium shot showing facial expression clearly whereas the second image is a medium long shot which shows facial expression and body language and the third image is a long shot. In the first and third images James is looking directly into the camera to engage with the reader whereas the second image is looking down at the floor.

Hannah
These are some of the images I took of Hannah as the interview is about her and she is my central image I need to use four photos of her so I took a range of photos of her which were influenced by my research. They all include a range of shots to show body language and facial expression.  All the images connote fun and youth which is perfect for my target audience. I also experimented with a black and white effect however I am going to use coloured images because from my research these are the ones mainly used. All of the images I have taken appear stereotypical of my genre.



India
This image is a medium shot and India is looking directly into the camera to make the reader feel more involved and this is common for pop music magazines. The image is taken against a white background to make her stand out and to connote purity and freshness. This image connotes youth again ideal for the target audience being teenagers. This image is posed.
