Media Test Shots...







These are the images i took for my test shots, i used my friend Emma as my model. The genre of my magazine is indie/pop so i wanted her to look quite casual but smart at the same time, i wanted her to be comfortable with what she was wearing so we opted for a shirt/vest combo with leggings and vans. The images that i have chosen to put on here are the ones i liked the best out of the 40/50 we took, we will be taking some more test shots this week as i think we can improve on poses and technique etc. The shots i like most are mid-length/long shots, so we will be experimenting with them shots when we take our other pictures, i think i'll try out different styles and make-up next time as i want to go for a different look and see what style suits Emma and the artist she is representing.

Magazine Name...



The two names i initially came up with for my magazine were 'Compilation' and 'Vinyl' but seeing another student from a previous year's magazine was called 'Vinyl', i've opted for calling mine 'Compliation'. When i came up with the idea i thought it was perfect, as it doesn't focus on one type of music genre and i can be more creative when it comes to featuring music acts etc. The types of music i am most into are Pop and Indie, i am also a huge fan of acoustic songs and covers of non-acoustic songs, i love Radio 1's Live Lounge as you get to hear how creative some people are when given a song to work on that is someone else's and how they interpret it. I want my magazine to focus on music but also have an element of fashion as i think music can follow a certain type of fashion and vise versa, for example- Indie. Most Indie followers and bands/solo artists usually follow a similar sort of fashion, which is smart yet edgy, whether it be from wearing geek glasses and boat shoes, to brogues and vintage one-off pieces. I'm still not sure whether my magazine is unisex or just for women, i think if it was purely just for women, i would be able to be more creative as i know more about the fashion and music types of women rather than men.
