CHOSEN PICTURES AND WHYFor school based magazine

FRONT COVER

I felt this was an appropriate picture for my front cover because it is a mid-shot of a student with a colourful background, showing the lively atmosphere the school has.

POETRY REFERENCEI modelled for a picture referencing poetry and the achievements the students have made including it, the book of poetry shows how students have been studying it and the shot from the camera being a close up focuses on the old kept condition of the pages, showing a rustic appearance. The background is blurred out to allow more focus on the book whilst also showing the background of a library and a mid-ground of a student.

SPORTS REFERENCE

This shot represents the sports section of the school and how they appreciate the history of sports. The photography is of the history of sports teams at the school to show the authenticity.

ART REFERENCE This shows a colourful image of the art work in the school for variety in of colour on the front cover. The student in the shot makes it look like the students appreciate the art making a parent want to send their child there if they have an appreciation for art.

ADAPTATIONS I chose to change some of the photograph ideas

to cover the need to show certain aspects of the school to my target audience

I cut down to three photos on the front page to show these parts of school to parents, which I saw as the most enticing

I made sure that there was a variety of colour in the pictures to keep the front cover vibrant and eye catching as well as ensuring the colours in the background of the main front cover image wasn’t distracting

The colours in the smaller images ensure the front cover image does not overtake the visibility of the other images
