Research and planning magaizne images

Here is an image that I have took for my magazine contents page. I am unsure if I will use this yet or not. But its the first photo shoot I have done so far.

Reserach and Planning production of magazine front cover

This is What I have done today, I have added and changed some of the cover lines. I have changed the colours of them also, Being a pop magazine I have much choice of colours. I have also added the barcode.I have changed my highlight colour to red because it stands out more and speaks better than the yellow which I had used first.


I have Moved and Rotated the Barcode around and I have put on a price for the magazine, Because i think putting the price on is something important to the readers.

Research and Planning Extra Post



I like the make up look on Selena Gomez, I am thinking of using something like this for my model. The reason I think this look would associations with my magazine is because my magazine is in the genre of pop and the pink lips are just something my model must have.

Research and planning - Extra Post



Here I have an image which I have took myself. I would like My model to have her lips this colour and also the pout is Important because I might consider my model to pout, because its something that all teenage girls like to do when taking pictures. Also I really love this colour lipstick, it really applies to my genre, its really girly and a pop of pink which will draw attention towards my magazine.

Research and planning - Extra post



I think for my magazine the location will not matter as much, because on the cover I would like to do something like this. I would like the image to blend in with the Magazine cover itself. Also I would like my model to wear clothes, that have the colour co-ordinate of my magazine, so it will look more professional.

Research and planning - Model test shot

I have not included this image on my model test shots because I was unsure if she would be my model. But I think the image she gives will be great for my pop magazine, because she is the youngest of all the models I have looked at and she is what I think should be on the cover of my pop magazine..So I think the above will be my Model for my magazine overall.

Q- How does it feel Knowing that your finally a popstar?
A-Well, I am still the same person, I am just happy that my music is out and I'm doing what i love.

Q- You had to move away from your extended family and your close friends, how does that make you feel?
A- That was one of the hardest things ever! I miss everyone so much, but me and my family go back to visit. I stay in contact with my friends over twitter and text, im so glad there are social network sites.

Q- how often do you go back home?
A- well I try and go back when I'm free, as i have interviews and my tour has recently started, and im going around promoting, its just all so crazy!

Q- The fans? How do you feel about them?
A- I cant explain how much I love them, This is all thanks to them

Research and planning My double page pread Ideas


For my double page spread I would like to write about an article, which will interact with my readers and something that they can link to. The ideas that I have come up with are the following below.

  • How to cope with break- ups
  • Growing up - how her life changed 
  • How to keep up with the trends 

Research and planning double page pop analysis


This is an example of a double page spread for a pop magazine. I am going to make mine like this, asking questions like an interview.This article is about Cher Lloyd and how people blamed her for their kids turning out wrong. They way this fits into my genre is because The topic which is being talked about is not something which is really serious. For my magazine I could so something along the lines of this like talking about the past ect.






Here is another double page spread, this one is about Two of the band members from One Direction. They are talking about their past, and how they felt about certain things. This links to my genre as this article is from a pop magazine, and I could use stories like this to ask my model, about her past ect and what she felt like ect at school/college, What they thought about education ect. 



 This is another double page spread from the 'top of the pops magazine' This magazine links to my genre and the age group which my magazine will be aimed at. This is something different from the other things pop magazines talk about, its something fun that readers might like to see, rather than a sob story.

Research and planning models clothes



The clothing items that I would like my model to wear are things that are appropriate to her age, things that suit her and also match her skin tone. Things that we have spoke about her wearing are things like Dresses, that are above knee length, tights/leggings ect things that are girly also we spoke bout casual shirts which are also dressy up. The make up on my model will be neutral, and her hair will be curled, also with the wavy hair look.Also my model also might wear a shirt which has a feminine touch with leggings or jeans.

research and planning - model shots

 Here is my first model shot, I am not sure if I will be suing this model on my cover, just because I feel that I should have her on my contents page.
 I like the poses that this model comes with, I would like to have her on my contents page, because its something fun and attractive to my readers.
 This model doesn't look age appropriate for my magazine cover, however i could possibly use her for my contents page.
This model looks appropriate for my magazine cover, but I'm not sure yet, as I have another model in mind. If I don't use her on my cover I will defiantly use her in my contents page or double page spread.


In this image the model I'm thinking to use is the one on the right hand side. I think the age and the looks of this model os perfect for my pop magazine.

Research and planning - artisrt asossiated with my music genre

This is how I wouldn't mind my model looking like, looking young and fresh. wearing causal clothing, nothing over the top as this is a pop magazine.

Research and planning SLR shots

 I like this image Because I took the image outside without a flash, also being dark colours it looks quiet bright.
 This image was taken inside,using a flash and I have used the portrait mode from the camera. This is a medium close up. The colours of the clothing stand out and looks clear.
 This image was taken inside the building, when taking this I did not use the flash, not using the flash it doesn't look as great as the above picture where I used a flash. Also this is a medium long shot.
 Here I have taken a picture with flash, This is a pose that would occur in a pop magazine.
 I have taken this image in a dark lighting, also I did not use a flash, which makes the image look dark, but the colours from the clothing reflect.
 This image was taken, using the Mountain setting on the camera. I have not used flash on this image.

 This is an image of a tree, I took this outside without a flash and its a clear image.
 I have took this image outside with a flash and it looks the same quality as the one above.
 Here I have taken an Image of a bush, the colours look bright on here as i have used the flower settings, This was taken without a flash.

 Here is the same image from above, except i have used flash whilst taking this image.


 This is an Image of the building but from a side view. this was taken without a flah.



 This is an image from underneath the bush, of leaves and stones, whilst taking this I used flash, and it looks as though I haven't.




 Here is an image with people and the building, its almost like an overview, i have used flash when i took this Image.




 This Image I have took whilst using the flash. This is a small plant outside the building. The shot type of this is a closeup.

 These are the SLR  shots that I have took, inside and outside of the building. For each of the images I have used different settings from the camera.
