Photo Shoot with Male Model

Name: James Gilmore

Location: Priorlee

Camera used: Canon IXUS 210

High Angle camera shot helps the audience to see the cover model at full stance, although I feel that this image makes the cover model look weak, and small.

High camera angle - the change of facial expression helps the audience to appreciate the difference  (between looking weak and not) although, I still don't think that this camera angle compliments the cover model. 

The change of camera angle from a High Angle to a Mid Shot  compliments the cover model more, and gives him a power stance. Also, the use of the prop of a guitar in this particular image helps to establish his stance better. 

The change of mise-en-scene makes helps to establish lighting and makes the cover model catch more light a pon his face. The change of stance also draws the reader in and makes them feel closer to the cover model. 

The change of facial expression addresses the model more to the audience, and gives the reader more of a personal feel with the cover model. The light picks up on the facial features such as the cheek bones and the forehead.

This particular picture hasn't got flash, and the shutter did not close quick enough, which makes this photo a mistake, however  like the way that it has panned out, and the blurred effect on the cover models face looks really original and unique.   

Using an effect on the camera, I have made the guitar look focused and the face of the male model not, this compliments the idea of the music magazine. It also reinforces the fact that it is a music magazine.

 

Experimenting with different poses, to see if the 'CONTENTS' would fit around the outside of the guitar, as of yet the space looks too cramped and I would have to have a go at editing the picture to see if it would fit.
