planning my magazine

Introduction
After looking at all of the ideas I will now decide the exact location, clothing, posing that I am going to use. This planning is crucial as by doing this I will have a clear idea of the major components for the magazine and this way I will have a clear idea of what needs to be done and how I am going to do it.

location
I have decided that I will use 3 of the locations that I listed
  • Stood against a brick wall
  • Dance studio
  • On a set of stairs
I decided to use the mixture of these locations as I couldn't decide between them. I thought that I would use all 3 location and find out which is the best location for the front page. I will then use the photos from the other 2 locations for the contents page and the double page spread.

Costume
I also plan to use a mixture of costumes as well. I will use the 1st outfit from the previous post when I take the photos on the stairs and against the wall as I would like these photos to be more R&B. I will then use the 2nd outfit whilst taking the photos in the dance studio. as in this circumstance I would like the photo to be more pop / hip hop dance then R&B.

facial expression / body language
I have decided that I will use a mixture of the body languages that I discussed on the last post. as by doing this I will have a range of pictures and i can choose the best poses to use for the magazine when everything else has been assembled by taking a range of different photos I will have a back up if my first choice of picture doesn't turn out very well.

I have decided that I will use the posing of the hip hop dancers as I would like to give this type of shot a go. If I get this right I think that it will create a successful front cover or even a picture for the double page spread. I also would like to try the pose that the girl is doing on the stairs as I think this is very eye catching and your eyes are drawn into hers. It is also a very urban way to go and this is more of the route I would like to go in compared to the pop dance route. I would also just like to try having a male model in the middle of the picture with a very confident stance and a glare look on his face this will seem very forceful but very R&B.
