Clothing Hair Makeup Props Location Lighting

Shoot 1 Red coat with fur collar, sequin shorts and black heels. I chose a red jacket which added a pop of colour and also created a fierce appearance along with the fur, which portrayed her as upper class and wealthy. Finally my decision on the shorts was that they were very revealing and provocative which attracts the male audience.

I have featured a down, backcombed, wavy hairstyle. This is very feminine and big hair is what you expect to see in dance style magazines.

I opted to go with dark smoky eyes, very heavy foundation. All of these elements will work together and produce a flawless finish which all the girls who purchase this magazine will aspire to be like.

Sunglasses is the only prop I have chosen to use for this shoot. The sunglasses give the artist more dominance and power. They also portray the artist as having a higher profile than the audience as she doesn’t look directly at the audience

Bedroom, with plain background which I can edit out on Photoshop.

I chose to use forced warm lighting this will enhance the artists natural glow and discard of any flaws.

Shoot 2 The two females in these images are both wearing revealing shorts which will seduce the male audience. The crops tops they will both be wearing will also reveal flesh to the audience and appear very provocative.

The hair again will be down with loose curls and be finished with backcomb for volume. This create s the hairstyle which most girls would wear on a night out clubbing.

I decided for both females to have a smoky eyes alongside red lipstick. The red lipstick will appear to be seductive again appealing to the males.

I chose a bedroom as the location in order to display two females getting ready for a night out clubbing and listening to the newest dance music in the night clubs.

I decided to use a force flash which would discard and bleach out any imperfections.

Potential Images For My Magazine

Final Images

Front coverI have hosen this image to feature on my front cover of my magazine. To begin with we instantly see the prop situated in the artists hand. I have chosen to use sunglasses as a prop as they are a typical convention to see in a dance style magazine. The sunglasses suggest that she is upper class, this is amplified by her stern gaze lingering above. Moving onto her gaze, the artist appears to be gazing to one side and not directly at the audience. This implies that she is far too important to look directly at the audience. I have made use of this gaze, as on my front cover I have positioned the font in the direction which the artist is gazing in. This draws the audiences attention towards the writing forcing them to read the information.

I have heavily styled my artists , she has flawless hair, stunning makeup, and fashionable clothing. All of these aspects will appeal to my target audience. The target audience is predominantly male, therefore they expect to see stunning females, as they’ll buy the magazine in they see the ideal woman which they dream about. However it will also attract the females too, as they’ll attempt to imitate the makeup and style of the artists.

Double page spreadFor my double page spread I chose to use a close up, side profile shot of the artists. This shot was used in order for the audience to immediately establish who the artist is. I chose to feature sunglasses as a prop which creates a wall between us and the artist. This portrays how this celebrity is a higher class than us and also too famous to directly look at the audience.

The hair, makeup and clothing are the same as what was featured on the front of the magazine. I wanted to follow these elements through, so that the audience would instantly recognise her.

I did also choose to use forced lighting which discarded any of her imperfections and if that didn’t succeed I also altered it slightly in Photoshop to create a flawless final appearance.

Contents PageFinally for my contents page. Throughout my images in my contents page I wanted to create the impression that two females were getting ready for a night out. I achieved this by using makeup and dressing tables as props. Also as the audience opens the contents page the images become more informal as you want to invite the audience in and make them feel welcome, rather than intimidating them.

The clothing they’re wearing is very revealing. Such as the shorts reveal their legs, and the crop tops reveal their stomachs. The revealing clothing attracts the males as it’s very provocative and seductive.
