Test Shots

 this shot is a mid shot, and it looks authoritive. the brick wall provides a almost intimidating look and the pose looks smug.

 This shot is one of my favourits because it suits the style of my magazine and the pose is a commanding one, demanding the respect. if this was the front cover of my magazine i think it would appeal.

This is an unusual shot for my magazine, however with a large male audience a female on the front cover may draw attention.

This is a mid shot, but abit zoomed out, however the background is filled with bricks, which provide a coulorful and deep backdrop.

this is a long shot, which could be used on my double page spread, because a mid shot is needed for my front cover. also, this type of photo is common on double page spreads.

this photo is also a long shot, however i like it because of the lighting effect. a shadow of the tree gives an effect which i like.

in this mid shot, i asked the models to do these poses because it is cheeky, which i think my magazine audience would like. Similar covers have been used on vibe magazine, which was my research magazine. also vibe magazine has been very succesful so therefore there style must be popular.



this photo is mostly blocked out by light but it is a mid shot and i took it myself theredore it is on here. i was just playing around with diffrent light effects and backgrounds.
