Double page spreads I like

I love this double page spread. The picture gives it the effect. The masthead is big and kept quite light. A nice font had been used for 'got the love' this is again bold but this time darker making it stand out over the masthead. The big 'D' beginning the article is big and bold drawing the reader into reading the article. The background, masthead and font are all kept quite plain as the picture gives off the effect, making everything stand out.
 




The bright colours draw me to this double page spread. They make the picture stand out as it is quite dull. The picture is quite plain but looks effective with the shadowed papparazi in front of the model. The masthead is big and bold, a nice font has been used. The yellow put behind the masthead makes it stand out more. Again a big, bold letter has been used to begin the article.

Analysis of photographs

I took a variety of different photographs in different areas. I didnt worry too much about what was in the background as I knew I would be erasing it, so i just focused on the lighting.
For my main images, I asked my friend to dress up in different outfits and pose in different positions. I used close up, medium close up, and medium long shots and an eye level angle for all of my photographs.
The main image I have chosen to use for my music magazine is Image 001.
For my subsidary images I focused on the lighting but for the background I positioned my friend in front of a light painted wall. I asked him to pose but to make sure he looked relaxed. I used close up, head and shoulders and medium long shots and again used an eye level angle.
The subsidary image I have decided to use is Image 006, which I also adjusted the brightness and contrast on.
