Analysis of Raw Shots

The location I chose was the busy streets of Manchester and the 'urban' scene: train station and back alleys. I chose these particular scenes because I feel by choosing an industrial scene with graffiti it would realate to my target audience... like my muscian, it's all about an edgy style, standing out and 'keeping the faith'.


Below are reasons why they are effective or not.

This image I took here is a medium close up of my model/musician, this can be used for my front cover because I think with the MOD, readers will think they will 'get to know her', therefore possibly find it more persuasive to buy the magazine. However, I feel the image will look better if I filter some colour for the graffiti so it stands out, and also altering the brightness and contrast because of her dark hair, she seems to be disapearing in the background. After all that tweeking on photoshop, this image will look pretty good for a front cover!

 

I love the fact I took this image by mistake. Photo's such as these make models/muscians look friendly, approachable and 'real'. I will not be using it for my front cover because of the lack of MOD I i will definetly be using it in my feature article. With a little tweeking on photo shop, this image will stand out and look effortless!

Compared to the other images I took, this picture was actually planned and has always been in my head since the beginning of the project. I love how my musican 'stands out' from the crowd, this is exactally I i want to potray her as. By editing this image in photshop, wow.. its going to look even better.
