Preliminary Task

I have decided that I only want to use one photo on my contents page so that there is enough room for text to go without it looking crowded. Similar to the Vogue magazine I am going to have the picture very large so that it is the first thing that the readers look at.

I walked around school looking into different classes and departments hoping that an idea would come to mind on what type of photo I wanted to have on my contents.

Below I have posted the picture that I finally decided to use for my contents page of my magazine;

 

I took this over the shoulder shot of a student playing the piano. I like this photo as I think it looks well planned and acted out. I like that the student has a straight face as it looks as if she is concentrating and really playing the piano. I think the lighting and the angle of this photo is good as everyone will clearly be able to see all details and what the main reason for the photo is. The only disadvantage of this photo is that I have used a plain piece of paper as the music script which doesn’t make it look as professional and realistic as it could. If I was to do this again I would make sure that I used a real music script to make the photo look more effective.
