Photo checklist

2. Will I be able to take Images for just my Front Cover or Will I be able to take other images for my Double page spread and perhaps the Contents page?
3. Do I need to book or organise possible Location in School?(e.g.Hall, Drama Room) or outside school?
4. We have 3 weeks to complete this task? What plans have you made?

My Pictures are going to be close up shots of a top half and face, close up shots

Mise-en-scene

• Lighting (trial and error is the best way of getting it exactly right)
• Costume
• Appearance
• Props for shot
• Background imagery
• Colour

The lighting will be a kind of dark, shadowed affect, for like a dramatic effect

The clothing will be a casual look like jeans and a plain top, to fit in with the casual reader who reads the magazine

Appearance: like a not too confident pose, looking away from the camera

Background imagaery: Maybe a dark background with a slighty light, which can reflect a shadow, or maybe just a dark place 

Props: Maybe a guitar to show the genre of the magazine

Colour: Maybe a grey effect, too show like a dull mood
